The night school instructors were all really cool, and understanding if you had to work a long day shift job before you got to class. The professors in general are a bit of a hit or a miss, especially in online courses. Some are excellent, with long histories of teaching and with doctorates degrees that they use to provide the best quality classes every single day, and other professors make your life difficult for no reason, and couldn't care less if you even show up at all. The campus is beautiful and you feel a great degree of history here. I attended here for two years after transferring from another school, and I feel like I never fully explored the place. The campus security is a bit over the top, since I got a parking ticket when I was still enrolling and wasn't yet a student for parking in the wrong direction. I didn't know any better and managed to get it dismissed, but it was a bit of a weird charge. I can't give Drury 5/5, simply because of the price. With a private school, you don't expect tuition to be cheap, but this school is EXPENSIVE. There's really no reason for day school to be so exorbitantly costly, unless you're purely paying for the degree. Outside of the cost, Drury is a good school with good instructors that is generally well worth your time.

So yes this is also a very bias opinion. I go to and work at this university. Have for six years…read morenow in total and wanted to contrast the opinion from so many years ago. Education: This place is first rate. The professors are some of the best in their fields, the class sizes are around 20 students, and coursework current. In my time as a student here I've been taught by retired FBI Directors, Judges, and professors that hold one if not more doctorates. Classes are challenging but also fair. I really can't say enough about the education here. Life: Drury has a large extracurricular activity catalog. There are tons of groups of various sizes, purposes, and commitment levels. You really can find a group or hobby that fits almost any interest. We recommend them to students to help them adjust to campus life. We also have a thriving Greek organizations but in contrast to the first reviewer who was a student of mine the groups only make up 27 percent of the student body. A large amount buy by no means a most of the campus. We have an outstanding Campus Recreation office and they hosts intramural for tons of sports. Administration: Dedicated to see you graduate and being a good thriving individual in your next adventure. I had to giggle a little at the first review and think back to an 80s Evil Dean character. If you want an honest answer yes you will be ticketed for violating policies and the process is designed around learning outcomes. Plus I challenge you to visit the university website and review their community standards. I'm sure you will find the policies fair and very similar to that of any university or community for that matter. I can honestly say its not a violation factory but when you are working with people who are on their own for the very first time boundaries are often tested. Overall and in a very bias way I am proud to be a Drury student and Staff member. This university has given me a sense of pride and accomplishment that I can take with me the rest of my life and an education that promises to make that life an interesting one.

Even after graduating with my bachelors, I was accepted into a masters program at a state school. Although, the program was lousy in comparison to my education at Evangel, leading me to transfer back to Evangel online to finish my masters as well. The psychology department, specifically Dr. Johnson, is the best. The school truly cares about students from a mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual perspective.

The college also offers trade school courses in cooking, automotive, and several other options, so it's not like you're stuck doing only Bachelors prerequisites. The biggest downsides would be the lack of parking during peak hours, and the need to take a standardized exit exam in order to get an Associates, but outside of that it's such a great school to get a quality degree and to massively help cut costs.

OTC is a community college funded strictly off tax payer; so why does tuition continue to rise?…read moreDon't get me wrong it is still much cheaper than other colleges, but the entire program needs an overhaul. Some teachers there are great, and supply amazing curriculum. Other teachers just keep adding more material to existing ones; making you do more for less point. Some teachers also seem like they are trying to prove something; such as trying to move onto a "real college" or that they are a value at the current one. Prepare to take classes that are demanding with unclear teachers who feel your 1000 word paper is worth 10 points.

I was literally fined for brining medicine to my wife on campus, evidently, we are only allowed to park in designated spots, and I have to call ahead to get permission. Permission to take medicine.
