My experience at Keiser University has been truly great. the admissions process was easy and quick, with small class sizes allow for extra attention if help is needed from the professor. The curriculum is challenging especially in the field of choice. As a working student, I appreciated the support of the staff and help from fellow classmates. Overall, Keiser has provided me with support and tools I need to succeed.

Keiser University is an amazing private school that offers anything from an associates to a doctorate degree. Along with multiple degrees they provide a wide range of majors within a large variety of fields. The key factor that makes Keiser so great is the class schedule, it is geared towards working students from all different backgrounds. The month to month classes help keep the class sizes smaller as well as the option for different class settings.

When I was deciding on what school to attend, I saw it on tv one time when I stayed home from school from being sick. Then I saw it on Myspace and Facebook. I was like "OK let me check this school out and do some Googling." So I checked it out and was like wow, they have so many opportunities to choose from. Now I went for my associates in medical assisting and I absolutely loved it. It was completely hands on which I loved so you can actually get a feel of what goes on in the field. Plus your instructor is there every step of the way. This school is so well know every where. You put this school on your resume, you definitely getting a call. I graduated with my ASMA and now I'm currently starting my new journey in radiology. Good luck to anyone that's currently or thinking of attending. You won't regret it !!!!!

Their Accelerated BSN program is expensive, but still cheaper than alternatives such as Rasmussen or other private universities. The school staff and faculty make you feel wanted and cared for, and the quality of courses is high. We are learning a lot of information at a break-neck pace but it is all worth it.
