REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingMost Professors have a masters degree and most importantly experience in their field. For example, I took a personal finance course over the summer and my professor was a financial advisor or planner. Either way, she had first hand knowledge of the topics she was talking about.

I am a fashion design major, and the program at Nassau is amazing. I have learned a lot, and the professors go at a good pace- not so fast that you can't keep up, but they keep the classes moving quickly so you are always moving on to the next project.
