While this is now my local voting location, this review is actually regarding my experience with…read moretheir MBA program. It has been several years since I completed the program, yet I have many memories, both of friendships formed by the experience, and the frustrating battles with the college's staff and administration. The enrollment experience was very positive and set the stage well for entering this exciting new chapter. However, orientation was disappointing, with Phyllis T, our guide, lacking the charisma to handle questions and objections, and oddly offering up a bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips as a welcome snack. One bag of chocolate chips, like you'd use for baking cookies, as a snack. To adults. Enrolling in a Master's Degree program. You can't make this stuff up! As the program wore on, we encountered sub-par facilities (the first room for our cohort had an ant problem and a very unpredictable thermostat which made dressing comfortably for class after a day at work impossible) and a mixture of excellent instructions offset by some truly awful "phoning it in" ones who were clearly looking for some extra cash, not advancing future leaders. The icing on the cake was being told that because our program concluded in June, we were unable to participate in the May ceremony, despite that undergraduate students in a similar situation were allowed this honor. We must wait for the December ceremony, a full six months past the finale of our educational journey. No explanation was given beyond it being "school policy." Despite all that, I did learn a significant amount during the 2.5 year program and still keep in contact with some of my classmates. Looking back I often wonder how I balanced work and school, and pat myself on the back for my time-management skills!

The faculty couldn't care less about their students. The school wants to appear big, bold, and strict with these new rules, but they've just gotten weaker.

They make you walk six miles to raise money for stuff that you might not even do. There is no air con in the entire school except for the administration offices where no students are. The teachers can sometimes be nice. While others are not. Oh don't forget they charge way to much on the food for lunch. So to conclude my review I say to Dominican please fix these things.

The support, friendships and memories we have experienced at Beglan are things that will remain with our family for a lifetime. Absolute A + school.

Glendale Heights was amazing with our son when he was 1 - the staff was very kind and helpful to…read moretwo new parents, and we had nothing but good experiences - singing nothing but praise for that time period. When he was 2, however, everything went sour. His particular flavor of AuDHD became more and more apparent, and it became increasingly clear that Glendale Heights possibly couldn't meet his needs anymore. Which is reasonable! So, after a number of days of bypassing their own "three strikes" policies and forcing us to pick him up early after a single minor incident (still charging us the full rate, mind you), they unceremoniously kicked him out without warning us that we were anywhere close to that possibly happening. Which, ok, I get from their perspective and communication could have been better - BUT. The reason this is a 1-star review and I won't recommend Glendale Heights to any other parents? Is because, for that last week that he was allowed to attend, it seems that he was told that he was being kicked out and it was _his_ fault, and not Glendale Heights' inability to accommodate his needs. For weeks, we had a 2-year-old constantly melting down every time he realized he did something wrong and _physically beating himself up_ for it. Who blames a 2-year-old like that? Who tells a 2-year-old they're a bad kid? We will forever regret sending our child to Glendale Heights.
