I have not begun my academic career at Advent health University. Since the global pandemic has begun I have spent much time away from, work and has left my time to think about my academic career, or lack of, and my future in general. So, two months ago I made the decision to go. back to school.

Kaylee - 11/18/2019

It is a no non-sense school. It is not a party school.... which I like. I am down to studying and becoming a successful nurse. It is a smaller medical school, on the same property as its enormous hospital. I like this because every other school I have visited, the Clinicals are in a hospital miles down the road. Here I can just walk to my clinicals. I never have to leave campus.

Madisen - 09/19/2019

This is my first semester and I feel that academically it is good and pretty much what I expected. I am taking some required basic courses; some professors are good while others are just adequate. I love the small size of the classes, making me feel that I am not just a number. The university has state of the art equipment and being connected to the hospital, gives us many opportunities to volunteer and expose ourselves to the medical community. The down side of the university it that it does not offer any of the typical campus life, such as sports, sororities or fraternities, coffee spots, multiple restaurants, beautiful dorms, and other amenities of a larger university. The only housing they have is off campus, which is very adequate but the rules are quite strict, which may not be for everybody. Overall, I am happy with the choice I made to go to Advent Health University. My goal is to complete my undergraduate degree and apply for a graduate program. The lack of a "campus life" makes is less distracting and helps me to keep my focus on what I am there to do and accomplish.

Sydney - 07/17/2019

I really enjoy going to AdventHealth University (Aka Adventist University of Health Sciences). It's a very small campus which to me is a plus. You can always easily get from one class to the next or from the library to class. It's very easy to locate your classmates and friends and the teachers are always around and willing to help or have a conversation. The class sizes are small enough that you get a good amount of one on one attention, but not so small that you feel singled out. The biggest thing is I really feel like my professors want me to succeed and that makes a huge difference. There are a few things that could be improved. The campus cafeteria is expensive and limited in options, but they do provide a space for you to heat your own food if you wanted to bring it from home. Additionally, I haven't heard much about campus housing but it seems pretty limited.
