Read What Students Are SayingThe staff is always very helpful here and the Professors are knowledgeable and attentive. They create a great learning experience that allows the students to excel.
Alysha from Yucaipa, CA
All the classes are small so students get a lot of one on one with their professors. Professors are very easy going and approachable they are always willing to work with. Students just need to talk to them. We have tutoring center that is for free for students to use so there's always somewhere to look for help. There is so much to learn not just inside the classrooms. There are a lot of different organizations on campus that a great for networking and lots of leadership programs available for the students. It's a great school.
