This campus gets a 4 star rating for me for various reasons. First, I come to this campus because…read moreit's small and most of the class sizes are small as well, which in college life, usually doesn't happen. I also like this campus because I generally don't get alot of traffic to there from Doral if I leave by 4:30pm at the latest and it's close to home. Another highlight would be that, most professors that I have had in the School of Business are readily available to speak with you, of course, during their office hours, a little before and a little after class. The main thing that annoys me is that, the actual department's hours are from 8:00am to around 4:30pm. I work in Doral and I generally don't leave work until 4:30-5:00pm. A great deal of my classmates also work full-time and go to school full-time, like me, and those office hours are less than pleasant. I am hoping that they extend their office hours to accomodate their working business students. Next, what also grinds my gears is the parking situation. Though, they are steadily working on the issue, it's still a big mess that has to be fixed. All in all, this campus is not all that bad.

An equally shoutout to all the security personnel that we encountered, everyone said "good morning" with a smile and very courteous and helpful.

For the specific course I needed to take, it's certainly a bargain compared to the other schools offering a course in the software I needed to learn. Oh, and by the way, those schools were charging for an online only program. At least MDC offered the class hands on. I signed up for a two-course series. The computer lab had the current version of the software, and the computers were new. The first day of class there was a small glitch with the projector and smart board though. It does help if you speak Spanish because, especially as a first step school, some instructors and fellow students will prefer to speak in that language. I have no issues with that as I'm partly tri-lingual.

I had the pleasure of visiting the campus of Barry University last week. The property is immaculate…read moreand beautiful. I cherish the momemts I spent in the chapel. Everone on campus was warm and helpful. The security gaurd took the time to direct me to the building I needed across campus. I decided to walk instead of moving my car and I'm glad that I did. I enjoyed following the sidewalks to the large open courtyard where the chapel, admissions, and other buildings are located. It seems that Barry does not have that great of a ranking. I'm not sure why that is. If someone were looking for a small campus with low student population, Barry would be a good choice. I was just here to drop something off but would come back to attend an event as the campus is lovely.

I have been at Barry for approximately three years pursuing a degree in clinical laboratory science…read morewhich I then switched to prenursing. I currently in the Florida National Guard, which has been the means as to how I pay for my education at Barry. While attending I have endured a lot of hardships due to my service in the armed forces, I wouldn't necessarily call them military friendly. If you are prior service or still currently serving, I would recommend going to a larger institution in university with a stronger VA in my personal experience. The person in charge of the VA at Barry only works remotely and is never in person and also works with multiple branches so if you need specific help for your branch it's difficult. I have been told that every student has to be treated the same regardless of military status although my military status has been the reason I have been able to afford Barry and I have communicated properly no accommodations or ever been made. In addition, the dormitories tend to be very humid, which causes mold growth making me sick before. When brining this concern this to housing I was just told to get a dehumidifier . For such an expensive and prestigious school I would expect the quality to be better. If your expectations is to get your money's worth, their university will not meet them.

Prospective students should proceed with extreme caution. My experience with this institution has…read morebeen defined by a lack of transparency, unauthorized enrollment actions, and financial practices that place profit over student outcomes. I was never clearly notified of a $100 withdrawal fee--buried in documents not reasonably provided for review--yet it is now being enforced. At no point did I request withdrawal; I explicitly requested a temporary pause to complete CLEP exams and return with a structured plan to finish my program efficiently and responsibly. Despite this, I was enrolled in additional courses without my authorization, forcing me to submit a tuition appeal for four classes. After weeks of back-and-forth by email--during which I was also managing a serious personal health matter--I repeatedly asked, in writing, for my leave to be recorded as a W. Instead, the institution recorded a Drop on my transcript, a designation I never agreed to and was never given a real opportunity to contest. That decision is now actively obstructing my ability to transfer my credits and continue my education elsewhere. Academic support has been inconsistent at best. Course delivery relies heavily on external paid platforms, repetitive assessments, and minimal instructional engagement. Requests for guidance--particularly regarding CLEP eligibility and degree planning--were repeatedly deflected, delaying my progress and undermining my timeline to advance into a PhD program. I am formally requesting, in writing, that the Drop be corrected to a W, the withdrawal fee be waived, all related collections activity cease immediately, and my full academic record be released so I can continue my education without further obstruction. If this is not corrected, I will pursue legal action against this institution, regardless of cost. Students deserve transparency, respect, and competent academic guidance. In my experience, this institution treats revenue collection as a higher priority than student outcomes, and prospective students should weigh that heavily before enrolling.

He donated the land and money with the mission of bringing a higher education institution to the growing South Florida community. The college adopted the nickname Hurricanes in memory of the devastating 1926 storm that hit the area just as the university opened. After the land boom bust the college struggled but it experienced significant growth after WWII. Their football program boosted them to national prominence leading to academic expansion. and they celebrated their 100 year anniversary last year. The University of Miami spans 240 acres on the main Coral Gables campus. It has a strong albeit expensive academic program including a medical school. Their colors are orange, green, and white representing Florida's citrus industry. The mascot is Sebastian the Ibis. The campus is park like with large trees, the man made Osceola lake from the 1940's in the center, and 1920's architecture with the oolite limestone Coral Gables is known for. I have visited the Lowe's Art Museum on campus and the Gifford Arboretum in the past and most recently I came for the Beaux arts Festival now in it's 75th year. Now could not be a better time to visit since UM is in the College Football Playoff National Championship against the Indiana Hoosiers. They have won five football championships since 1983 and we are hoping for number six. To make the famous UM hand gesture hold up your hands in front of you palms out and put your thumbs so they are touching and your hands form a U shape. UM fever has spread throughout the entire city of Miami with events happening in conjunction with the big game all weekend long. The highly anticipated game takes place Monday night. Go Canes!

Again, don't make the same mistake that I did, I regret having a college education not because of the education but because of the money. I owe 61000.00 plus interest; guys this is a lot of money and not even a bankruptcy will safe anybody from student loans.
