REVIEWS
Read What Students Are Sayingfelician college is a wonderful school to attend. academically, this college is higher then a good margin of others schools. especially the nursing program; a very tough course to get into and go through but it is all worth it in the end.
Justin from Clifton, NJ
The classes that are requirements for your major really benefit you. The cirriculum offers classes that I did not find at other schools which provide you to be very successful in the future. I like the professor's teaching styles and how willing they are to make the best out of your college education.
