Review of Park University

from KANSAS CITY, MO

Describe your college in three sentences.

Amazing knowledge of Military Aid and unique needs. Travel abroad department very knowledgeable and always there. Number One thing is the quantity and quality of opportunities to travel and for cultural exchange even on the home campus.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Pay attention. Do not ignore school emails, they actually contain quality material, Be ready to study.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

Teachers can be hard, but are always there to actually help. They have good office hours and are never upset to answer your questions.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Have never lived in the dorms except on my currant study abroad and when I was military. I have been in them and listened to other peoples experiences, they are a lot like Air-force dorms. They seem much better than what other people tell me they live in.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

This is not a HUGE university, so the dining hall does not have 200 options but they do bring in food from all the different cultures and countries that go to school there.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

There are hiking trails, Frisbee golf, and lots of nature. With Kansas City only a few minutes drive away you can do almost anything.

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

For the price you get small classes where the teacher knows your name. They are not there to help you earn a piece of paper but to help you learn. The student activities are great, and with a small school it is like a small town. It quickly becomes your home where everyone knows your name

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Anyone who wants to globally expand their mind. This school is not for close minded people who believe other cultures are wrong.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Lots of clubs and activities, and the school helps to support them in anyway possible.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Not really any Greek life which I believe to be a bonus!

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Campus safety is good, they patrol day and night and are not overbearing, but will enforce a rule. Also it is in a small community with very little crime.
