The facilities and staff are very involved. I am currently online student but the people assigned to help me through the school year always call to check up on me and see if I have any questions. They answer all my questions in a timely manner also so I never have to worry about barely making deadlines.

Jessica Lynn - 05/03/2017

CityU treats each student like a human rather than a robot. The faculty provide timely feedback that pushes you towards betterment. The advisors periodically check up to see how you are doing. The coursework is rigorous and relevant. I am glad I picked CityU!

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    Seeing as how i graduated early and joined the military, i would tell my self that its worth it. I was nervous about joining the Marine Corps but coming from a small town with no money for college i had no other options. I wish some one was around to tell me i was doing the right thing, that my education was worth four years of my life. I would also tell my self that four years in the real world was a great learning experience and that when it was all done i would take school that much more serious. obviously i knew all this deep in my gut seeing as how i did it, but to have some one comfort and confirm that my decision was indeed the correct one would have mad those last few weeks of my senior year and the four years to follow that much easier.
