The College is actually of Catholic background. Lawd knows if I was attending there would be spontaneous combustion since I am banned from churches, but it's not about me so let me stop. The actual dorms are rather roomy and nice. It was hard to leave my signature when it came to financial portion, but hey the child will have an awesome education, so it will be worth it. The main office is located in the vintage portion of the college, that kind of scared me- but once our tour was started, I quickly saw the newer and safer buildings that were part of the campus. Wow, these kids will have better eats then I did. They have their own restaurant which of course has three courses from breakfast to dinner. Really good and healthy food too. And their gymnasium is pretty big also. I think that I you decide to go here (and it is 3 hours away from Chicago), you will be impressed.

My low rating pertains to mainly the doctorate of physical therapy program. I felt as an undergrad…read morethat I was groomed for acceptance to the DPT program but was denied every time I applied, even though I followed all of their instructions. I majored in exercise science and had no other options for a career once I graduated with my undergrad. They did not look out for me or care what happened to me once I graduated. This is not a one time occurrence. Someone close to me was also completely screwed over by Ambrose's DPT program. He had to transfer schools mid-program due to Ambrose's misguided and unfair program. They told him false-promises that resulted in a worse situation for him. He followed all instructions from director, Mike Puthoff, to be able to stay but was thrown out and abandoned without remorse. Overall, Mike Puthoff is a two-faced, unfair, and mediocre program director with DPT passing rates plummeting ever since he took over. He has poor management over instructors in his program and has yet to prove any care towards the students he teaches. The material taught at Ambrose is mediocre at best and needs to be re-evaluated along with their director.

Unfortunately, most of the corruption that occurs, I truly believe is out of desperation because the cost of the schooling (your loans will be PRIVATE-no loan forgiveness opportunties in this field unless you work for the Chiropractic school is which case they do claim to offer PSLF) in comparison to what most Chiropractors make, if they are operating ethically, is not good. If you want to struggle financially, not be respected within the healthcare community, be surrounded by antivaxxers, QANON freaks and other conspiracy theorists, and be drowning in debt for the remainder of your life...by all means pursue a Chiropractic education. Best of luck.

This college looks impressive on paper and during campus tours, which is exactly why my child chose…read moreto attend. Unfortunately, the reality was very different and the decision turned out to be a major mistake. Students are treated more like high schoolers than college adults, with policies and oversight that feel controlling and out of step with what most families expect from a university. The most alarming issue, however, is how the school appears to handle rape and sexual assault. From what we witnessed, the system seems to protect perpetrators far more than it protects victims. Individuals accused of serious misconduct appear to face minimal consequences, while victims can feel ignored, blamed, or even vilified for speaking up. That kind of environment discourages reporting and raises serious concerns about student safety. Drugs and alcohol are also clearly present on campus, yet the systems meant to monitor and address these problems seem ineffective. We did ask questions about safety and student well-being before enrolling and, unfortunately, believed the reassurances we were given. In hindsight, the reality did not match the rhetoric. Overall, the college does a very good job marketing itself and creating a positive first impression. Unfortunately, our experience suggests that the reality behind the brochures is far less reassuring. Families considering this school should ask difficult questions about student safety, accountability, and how serious incidents are actually handled.

Although you create lasting friendships during the coursework... There's not much else positive to…read moresay about this college. You learn the very bare basics about electronics and in most careers in the field, they don't teach you enough to be productive in a business environment. You leave the school thinking you understand the field and confident that you are ready to enter it, however I worked for a small company and a large company in the electronics field and the things I found out that I should have known, but was never taught in the school, had both companies saying nothing but negative things about this school. I graduated with an above average gpa, earned tons of awards, including student of the month, yet I found myself lost when entering the field. Needless to say, I eventually moved on to a different career path. But don't just take it from me, take it from anyone who actually attended this school, and graduated only to find themselves lost. Only a handful of my graduating class were able to attain successful careers, and they were those who had prior experience in the field. The classes are fun. The faculty is great, for the most part. But at the end of the day, you just end up wasting your time getting a tech degree in (what they claim is a thriving field but) what is a career with a sub-par calling due to everyone going to college for some type of degree in electronics and computers (You're better off with an IT degree) and the fact that they give you "broad range" in the electronic field is actually a negative because you become a jack of all trades and master at none, and most of the time you're learning about components and its something you really don't need to know as individual components aren't replaced anymore. Unfortunately it's just my word against theirs and there aren't any other reviews to back myself up. But as an alumni of this school, with multiple acquaintances and friends who have graduated at different times as me, all saying the same as I, it's not just a coincidence Hamilton has the reputation it does in the working world, as opposed to what they'd have you think; at the end of the day, they are a business.... As far as career placement goes, sure they are more than likely able to find you a job the majority of the time, what they don't tell you is that most of those jobs aren't even close to being in or around the quad cities and have less than average starting pay for a technician in their field. Doesn't sound like a big deal? After spending as much time, money and being promised the things they do while getting that degree, you'll realize how crappy of a thing it really is to be offered an interview for a position in Omaha, NE, or further.

Not many photos of the children discovery center but we were pleasantly surprised. Actually our other 2 kids loved it more than our baby. The rest of museum is a mashup of science center meets history museum. The temperature throughout the museum varies from each room like crossing equator. Some of the exhibits felt narrow so really difficult to go back when winding paths over bridge and nature scenery. Gift shop was a bit disappointing. Can't say much of the food since it was mostly for cinema. We opted to just head out to subway for better lunch.

Used to come for haircuts, thought I might try and a color to shake things up a bit. Worst hair…read moreexperience of my life. Wanted to go from a natural blonde to bright lavender, avoiding lightener if possible. They explained that wouldn't be possible and lightener was needed. They also didn't have time to do both, so they said they would bleach and tone the hell out of it until I could come back. Their scheduler didn't account for a double-processing appointment. So I expected to leave that day with a silvery, purple-undertone blonde that would take easy to the coloring next time. Student almost melted my hair off. There were not nearly enough instructors to adequately and safely manage that many clients. I sobbed for 45 mins while they were washing the bleach off my head, which they had to pull before one side was even ON because they were so slow that it had processed for SO LONG on the first side. She took me over for a haircut, and an instructor asked the student to walk away, stepped in and apologized for the way it turned out. She said the student had personal issues that day and should not have been on the floor. She said the school wanted to pay for me to come back and have everything fixed. Day saved, right? For the time being. I came into my next appointment and they quoted me $80 to do the work, I mentioned that the other instructor told me that the school wanted to fix it on-the-house, and this new person said it didn't count because the initial appointment was just for the bleaching and toning. I countered with, "but it wouldn't have to be FIXED if I didn't have one side of my hair still a half-processed orange and the other side silver. What we talked about would have been a stopping point where I could have decided to not come back in." Clearly not a convincing enough argument. What was I supposed to do, just walk with the god awful color I came in with? Rarely do I have time to spend in a salon, so two days a week apart was really pushing it already. Plus, if I went anywhere else I would have needed to pay anyways. I had a much more competent student this time around, so I stayed for the appointment. The color was just not what I wanted. Far too dark, uneven from one side to the next. They never finished the lightening because that would have been another double-processing and they failed to account for that yet again. The instructor came over and was condescending, saying "it's still pretty," telling me that I can come in next time with a better idea of what it may look like. I did not expect perfection, but I expected professionalism. Very displeased that one instructor noticed the poor work done, offered to complete the job on the dime of the school, and another gave me every excuse to not oblige. I paid $95 to have a student leave me looking like I diy'd a split-dye treatment, and then another $80 to get a color far darker than what I had come in for, and done so unevenly. Please pardon the "." I included a crying pic so the "sobbed for 45 mins" doesn't feel hyperbolic. Don't worry, I cried quietly.
