my review is specifically regarding the nursing program as a parent of a student who is a commuter…read more The university boasts about its great opportunities in comparison to other nursing programs, during the visit they mentioned the prestigious coalitions with renown hospitals for student placement during practice but instead I have heard directly from my daughter who tells me that the last semester has been spent traveling into the city, paying parking, enduring traffic only to be told that their group is not able to interact with patient. This same scenario has been repeating for weeks. It is not the inability to be on the floor that causes frustration but the lack of care from the administration who despite repeated calls and emails to the Nursing Dean no response or explanation has been given to the students. This shows the lack of regard for the student and families who are paying their hard earn money. I am writing this for any incoming students and their families so they will ask the questions before committing.

From the academics to the activities and programs everything about it is incredible. Unfortunately this is my last year at Berkeley College but I won't ever forget the wonderful moments that I spent here, the people I met, and the amazing things we did together as a family Thank You Berkeley College for giving me the opportunity to be the best that I can be. However improving the academics and staff and faculty at the White Plains campus would be excellent. Incorporating a cafeteria that on campus residents and commuters could use would be a great benefit. Finally expanding existing campuses like the White Plains, NY campus can no doubt bring more students in and create more classes and programs.

CONS + One of the more expensive law schools in the country (and slated to get exponentially more expensive each year looking at the recent reports) and not known, by any means, for its largess in offering merit scholarships. This is something must change immediately. Above - plus a NYC cost of living which can be brutal on a law student in this economy.

They were not wrong! I was fortunate enough to have Harvey Acosta for my written and CFC course. Harvey has a great skill of making topics you may not understand relatable to something you may know a lot about. Even though you wouldn't think those topics are relatable he finds a way to get through to every student. Harvey cares for his students and seems to always be available for his students needs. Harvey gives you the blueprint and it's up to you to put in the work. If you follow his plans you're over prepared for the test. For the practical course I had the Walt Disney / Johnny Carson of the practical exam world. Gary truly is the best in class when it comes to practical exam preparation. He can take a student with zero knowledge and help them understand the building systems in and out. He makes sure to engage every student during the class and holds them accountable. He invest his time to make sure you understand the systems, not how to take a test. If you put in the work and follow the program that Gary creates for you, you will be well prepared for the exam. Gary has been teaching this class for some time and his numbers speak for themselves. I would say his students have a 90-95 percent pass rate if the students put in the work. Please don't look anywhere else, other than the Turner School! It's well worth it!

Thanks to him, I walked into the exam confident and ready, and it paid off. For the practical portion, I had Gary. Gary is truly exceptional at teaching this class. I came in with zero experience in the field and no prior knowledge of reciprocating or centrifugal systems. By the end of the course, I had a clear understanding of how the systems work inside and out. Gary breaks everything down in a way that is easy to grasp, even for complete beginners like me. Practicing the turner simulator and participating in the course fully will absolutely prepare you for the FDNY exam. If you listen to Gary and you put in the effort, you will find the test easy-and you will be set up to pass with a high score. WE GOING TO DISNEY Thank you again Pete and Gary you are the real MVP'S Aileen

Reading through some of these reviews about CUNY School of Professional Studies leaves me with…read moremixed emotions. I graduated from CUNY SPS in August of 2012 and I had a great experience in my courses. At CUNY SPS all instructors, at least online, actively participate within the discussion boards and makes sure that the students are getting the most out of the subject content. There is a perception that online courses are easy and that's not the case. You have to work exceptionally hard online to accomplish your degree objectives. There are few opportunities to miss a course. In brick and mortar institutions when weather conditions force school closures CUNY SPS is open and you will still log on to and attend your course as scheduled. In online courses you complete more assignments, write more papers, participate in more group discussions, and in some courses you will be required to engage in social media and second life activities. What you learn in an online Bachelors Program at CUNY SPS will prepare you for graduate school. In fact after I completed my education in CUNY I immediately enrolled in Graduate School at Stony Brook University and completed my Masters of Arts in Liberal Studies degree requirements in only 3 semesters. Let's be human for a moment here... I had a few issues at CUNY SPS but I worked them out with the appropriate department. But overall my experience at CUNY SPS was great! If you rate a school one star it's probably fair to rate your performance at one star. This is a situation where you can't fault the institution for the performance of self or the interaction with a professor. I remember at our graduation a candidate spoke and said that he believed his writing assessment was the best but ended up requiring him to enroll in remedial courses. Sometimes you have to have corrective feedback in order to improve. Instead of quitting, as many do, you have to accept it and move on. You have a goal to accomplish--Graduation. You have to put in the effort, complete the assignments, participate in projects and discussions, and succeed. At the end of the day administration does not matter neither do the professors, no matter how horrible (yes, I had two), YOU have to manage your success in the course. Sometimes you may have absolutely no idea what direction the professor is taking the course but in those situations I succeeded by following the course syllabus closely and monitoring change. There will be times the professor will confuse you but you have to communicate that confusion clearly in the forums and you will receive help. CUNY SPS is not set up to fail you and the proof is in the growing number of annual graduation candidates. I would like to challenge you, if you are thinking about enrolling, leaving CUNY SPS or have left, to re-enroll (or register) and prosper. Keep going and finish. After you complete your degree then you can look back over all of the obstacles that you have overcome and in that moment you will both understand and appreciate the struggle. If the will to overcome obstacles is in within you then you will have difficulty succeeding at any University.

Don't waste your time and money. I started taking the undergraduate business program during the…read moreCovid lockdown and would not recommend it to anyone. The school takes your money and on day one of the class you are unable to withdraw without losing it. The workload is extremely intense and most business professors are not interested in helping the students. There are many technical requirements that are not posted in advance and you are left on your own struggling to figure it all out. I have found that many professors are highly unorganized, unable to spend time helping and don't take the time to learn the course they are teaching or learn English/proper grammar. Currently, I am taking a Statistics class. I just spent 8.5 hours completing the first test had a technical error and failed to count all my answers. Instead of reviewing my test and the answers, my lazy professor's response was "Just take it again." Sure, I have another 8.5 hours to redo this! Thanks for nothing. Also, the technical requirements for this homework are incompatible with my computer's software. I am 6 classes away from graduating and fear this is the end of my road here. Very depressed. Lots of time and money are wasted at SPS. I am beyond disgusted with this institution!
