Review of Long Island University

from Freeport, NY

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

Long Island University prides itself as a well educated school for everything and anything. They want you to learn and enjoy learning so the hire the best teachers they can. My history teacher my first semester was a writer and had written books on countless historical events and has been asked to write reviews on other books as well. Most of my teachers I was lucky to get made class exciting and interesting to the students. I will also admit there were some teachers that gave me a hard time but even they helped me when I asked them to.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

Long Island University has numerous clubs and activities for it's students. The Association for Campus Programming (otherwise called the ACP) plans numerous events like movie nights during the fall and concerts during the spring. This semester they planned a city trip to see the Rockettes and the students only had to pay $30. The trip was amazing and the seats were very good. Events also include art exhibits, fashion shows, carnivals and all of this in just one semester. There was almost an exciting event every week. Even during finals week there was something going on. One example is the 12am breakfast, in which the cafeteria was open to all students and there was a large buffet style breakfast,

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Long Island University is pretty expensive but you get a lot for it. It is a private school and it's not that large in population so you are able together attention you need when you need it. They are able to help you in anyway they can. Plus you are getting a lot of experience and well educated professionals teaching your classes. Overall I would still make the same choice I did.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Really make sure you have the financial aid for the school. Try to get as much cash as you can from them, scholarships, and federal aid. Long Island university is a great school but the knowledge of you owing money will stress you out.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Students who want to experience a diverse group of people and like various different things. Long island university gives multiple options for majors, foods, dorming choices and more. It's a school of culture, experience, education and fun.
