If you get Kristopher as your advisor, he's got you! He's very prompt with his communication. Every time I would email him with a question, he would respond within-I'm not even kidding-like 10 minutes, if that! I never had to sit around waiting days for a response. He made sure to check in on me throughout the process, which I really appreciated. He made me feel comfortable from the start, and I always felt like I could reach out to him whenever I had a question or needed help. It's because of Kristopher that I feel confident this is the program I want to be a part of. His support and communication have given me such a positive impression of the program, and if the instructors and staff are anything like him, I have no doubt that I'm going to have a great experience!

I had such a great experience working with Kristopher Rios throughout my entire enrollment process…read morefor the ADN-RN program! From the very beginning, he made what could have been an overwhelming process feel so much easier and more personal. He helped me get started, set up my interviews and meetings, answered all of my questions, and guided me through every step all the way up to my acceptance into the program. What I appreciated most about Kristopher was how supportive, responsive, and genuinely invested he was in helping me succeed. He always made sure I knew what was coming next and that I felt prepared throughout the process. Starting nursing school is such a huge step, and having an advisor like Kristopher made such a difference in my experience getting here. Even now that I'm officially in the program, I know I can still reach out to him if I ever have a question or need help with something. I'm so grateful for everything he did to help me get to this point. Definitely my favorite advisor!!

All of the workers were very helpful and friendly. I highly recommend this place if you're on campus for an event or taking class.

The college offers a variety of excellent courses and majors and their nursing program is competitive and excellent. The only complaint I have is that there seems to be a prevalent political, cultural bent that hangs in the air and encourages safe spaces and victim mentality. This unfortunately assists in continuing the issue that workplaces are dealing with daily that causes strife and lack of motivation and productivity.

Considering National University for a Psy D? DO NOT DO IT. Formerly, the PsyD program was at JFK…read moreUniversity, acquired by National University, and then ran independently. Assured that JFK University would remain open and independent, they eventually closed JKF University, surrendered the APA accreditation, and began a "new" program under the National Unversity banner, naming the program The JFK School of Psychology at National University. After 3/4 of the faculty resigned and multiple staff promised to stay with the program, they too resigned. Several new, mostly adjunct faculty filled in some of the gaps yet the program remains understaffed, underfunded, and now, UNACCREDITED. The program is currently seeking accreditation and if granted by the APA, you will know the accreditation process is a sham. I won't even touch basis on the hypocritical curriculum, communication problems, lack of transparency, or the basic lack of a catalog describing the coursework required and the class content for the doctoral degree. You will be on your own. The JFK University financial aid department continues its ineptitude and arguably criminal conduct under the National University banner. Don't expect any information on your loans. Expect late loan disbursements while you accrue interest on money you haven't been given, 2+ weeks to respond to your email inquires, and expect NO CONTACT via phone with the financial aid department. LOOK ELSEWHERE FOR A PSYD program and AVOID THIS ONE AT ALL COSTS. You have been warned.

I'm a part of NU's BSN program. We are almost done, but wanted to write an overall experience…read morereview of the program for future students. 1. Scheduling. Have a job? Good luck not getting fired. They send out class schedules sometime the DAY before, so scheduling shifts (if they are anything like mine) is impossible. You WILL be calling out and if your job is strict on attendance. 2. Price. It's a private school so I never expected a cheap program. However, itemized billing is a little... shady. "Technology fees" "Nursing fees" etc... all random, un-detailed, charges for each class. If I had more insight as to what I was paying for, I wouldn't be concerned. They raised the price of tuition for 2023, at least I think that is was happened- we NEVER got a notice that this would happen, they just started charging more in monthly tuition in the new year. 3. Professors. In the BSN program, they are very hit & miss. Sometimes, you'll get one that truly wants you to succeed. Other times... they are there for the paycheck. 4. Class times/days. Look, as I mentioned, I get it's a private school. But... 6 hour classes on Sundays? In the morning? Really? What about those who attend church? School is more important? I guess it depends on who you ask. They go off of the professor's schedule, which is fine. But really? Sat/Sun classes are common & mess up a lot of your family & rest time. 5. Guidance counseling. Never heard of her. You are assigned one, but 9 times out of 10 they are from the san diego unit and will have no clue what you're talking about (concerning Fresno's program). 6. Support. Need to reach somebody? Maybe about your bill? Unless you are signing up for classes, expect a week's wait. 7. Hierarchy. There really isn't one. Lots of professors are leaving for many of the reasons above. They are short-staffed and are assigned to a class within a few days of it starting. I feel just as bad for them as I do for students. 8. Opportunities. As an NU student, you will NOT be able to get a job in the hospital as a nurse extern. You will need to enter as a PCT/CNA. I've done this for 3 years, so it's fine. However, externships are crazy beneficial to the schools around us and their students. it is a paid, hands-on, clinical day. You get way more experience doing this, but NU does not contract with any local hospitals (as of now). There are few volunteer opportunities and they only sign you up for the minimum clinical hours required by the BRN. Overall, there are many flaws to this program. I have learned a lot and have had great experiences. If you have the grades and TEAS score and get in, I wouldn't say it's bad enough you shouldn't accept the admission, but just be prepared for a lot of difficulties throughout your time with NU. Good luck future nurses :)!

There is no way that I can recommend the school nurse services credential program through this…read moreuniversity! Upon the enrollment of the program, I had to send in all my transcripts and official documents 3 times because every time I sent them, the program coordinators claimed they never received my transcripts and documents. I sent all of my official paperwork in via FedEx, so I know it was delivered and was even signed for by someone from their office! They claimed I was missing a transcript, so I directly sent them the transcript in question. In the meantime, I was put on the wait list to begin the program the next year. At this time, I was told by the program coordinators that they had too many applicants and not enough places available and that is why I was wait listed for the following year. Fast forward to the following year and the program coordinators are contacting me about the same transcript in question - they claimed that they did not have the transcript on file! So I had to re-order the transcript and have it directly sent to the program coordinators! This made the 5th time I had sent this transcript to them!!!!!! It was after I sent the transcript in question once again that I was told the reason I didn't get accepted to the program the year prior was due to this transcript missing from my file, yet I sent it to them!!!!!! I was lied to about my admission to the program! Once in the program, it was completely ridiculous! The professors/instructors could not even figure out how to use or operate a basic Zoom meeting and students were having to tell them what to click on and how to create the links, etc! The assignments were ridiculous. I was able to complete all the assignments and answer all the weekly discussion questions based on my own experiences - I never even had to open the "required" readings/texts that I was required to purchase! Thank goodness I purchased a used textbook, since I didn't even need it! The professors claimed that you had to submit all assignments in APA format, yet they didn't even know APA format! All the sample papers that the professors provided had completely incorrect APA formatting! For the clinical courses, you were required to meet via Zoom meeting with the professor. Well, as the student, you would think the meeting would be scheduled around your schedule (keep in mind all students were working from home full time and in this ridiculous program full time). Nope! Your meeting had to revolve around the professor's schedule. So my professor scheduled multiple student Zoom meetings per day and got all the zoom links confused. She sent me the wrong zoom meeting link and blamed it on her internet! A Zoom meeting that should have started at 10:00 AM didn't start until 10:35 AM! I would submit all assignments prior to the due date and was accused of not submitting them on time! I then had to argue with the professors and provide proof of timely submission. THIS is the level of incompetence with the professors of this program! Now, about graduation....what a complete joke! At any other state program for credentialing, you can walk in the commencement ceremony. I was denied the opportunity to participate in the commencement because I was not getting a degree. All in the name of COVID! This was NOT during the lockdown and was well after the reopening of nearly everything! So here I spent over $10,000 cash on a piece of paper from this program, constantly argued with incompetent professors for an entire year, only to be denied the opportunity to participate in their commencement ceremony when every other program in the state allows credential earners to walk in the ceremony! I called to inquire about walking in the ceremony and was told that all other departments were walking except mine! I asked to speak with someone about the reasoning and see if there were any other ceremonies. My information was taken and I was supposed to get a call back. To this day I have NEVER received a call back! Liars & Scammers! ZERO STARS!

Now being an Alumni and seeing that this library is very unique.

However they now changed it into an area where you cannot study :( But this Library has loud areas, social areas and areas to study. They have a Multimedia are where you can chill and watch videos, music and do whatever that cause for media. They have a reading room which you have to be a VERY quite person to enter and I found out if you think you are a quite person the reading room will either confirm it or you will learn you are far from a quite person. They have Starbucks which doesn't take on many of the promotions from national Starbucks or any student discounts. They have events hosted like museums and artwork show casings.
