Class sizes are small and the professors are very supportive and helpful. You are not a number at Dominican, you are a beloved student. The school is close enough to the city for day trips and is a nice area of New York State. 10/10 recommend Dominican University

But, if you want small classes, personalized attention and assistance and good friends...this would be your place. The grounds, facilities, and dorms are nice. Plus, NYC is so close.

Whenever I go here to visit, it still makes me think of a small charter high school where the kids…read morecan dorm-- bc its THAT small!! But then again I went to a school with over 10,000 ppl so I suppose anything would look small compared to a big SUNY. Overall it may be a commuter type college [though they act like it isnt] but when half the kids dont live on campus bc A, they dont want to, and B there isnt enough room....its a commuter school yo. BUT my sister is doing so very well and they give out scholarships to those who are deserving along with recognize achedmic excellence with awards and entrance to scholarly fraternaties. But seriously, they need to lighten up on bed checks and security. They are ADULTS now, they don't need big brother lurking around to see if they are in their rooms by 10pm. Thats not what college and tution is for. I think the students have earned freedom now. jeeeez.

I just graduated from this college last year, I felt that it was highly overpriced and did not…read moreoffer much. In addition to an average education, they "nickel and dime" you to death and constantly send small bills for everything, like graduating-Because 4 years of tuition just isn't enough. (which rises yearly) Prepare to graduate with tons of debt and a mediocre degree. It is incredibly hard to find a job upon graduating from this college, as it is so small and unheard of, but in all fairness, that may not be something that only happens with STAC. STAC is also not "known" as a great school-as I found out looking for jobs. The education is average at best, and many of the teachers never seem to stay more than a semester, as the longest teacher at the school has only been there 5 years. (2nd place is 3 semesters) It seems that the teachers do not really care, although this could be hit and miss depending on classes. While I commuted (and if you do attend, I would suggest you do as well) the dorming situation is horrible. There are constant twice a night check ups, and activities are not allowed in any of the courtyards. Any violation of these "rules" will end with you getting written up. The teachers claim they are" trying" to fix this, but it has been getting worse and worse. It has become a jail full of kids that are miserable as they have to sit in their room and await check ups all day. Stopping drugs and alcohol is a good thing, not allowing us to use the grills on campus and the grass fields between the dorms is absurd. Especially when you are paying for them. We are also not allowed to use that new field without being on one of the sports teams. Yes you just paid for a new facility that you are not allowed to use if you don't play sports. I regret attending this school, and I did not even have to endure the worst of it. I would not recommend this school to anybody, they have a lot of work to do to try to fix their image before a degree from them will once again mean anything.

Even though they are so varied in background, they really want to see me succeed. I have so much fun at every meeting that sometimes, I forget to get nervous about public speaking. You never know what great and wonderful topic the other members will bring up. And it is so nice to get a big applause over my presentations too. They have helped me in my professional life as a Realtor and in my personal life, especially the building of my own dream home.

horrible!!! dorms…read moresuck. no garbage room on 2nd floor. kitchen on floor 1 has food in it from last year you have to park in h lot if you live on campus which is extremely deserted and far from the dorms. they have no apartments only communal showers you have to get a mealplan. you need 72 hrs notice for a guest to come. you can only have a guest six times per month overly expensive you cant park near the building you live in the student life sucks. nobody is around. the school is broke. they provide only to go containers at the dining hall. no plates. the food options suck and are extremely unhealthy you need to purchase food from your meal plan by the meal. no all you can eat option like a normal and functioning college. they are broke they look at you crazy if you ask for a cup for water. (you have to pay for a cup) only two places on campus are open during the weekends, probably because they can't afford to open the healthy places. you have to go through three security systems to enter the dorm. yes three. you have to bug res life to approve your guest request. mold in rooms. half of my floor was wet and moldy and it was a sweet smell. affected my breathing. i reported it three times until i told them i had to move. they did move me when i asked which was a good thing. but i had to advocate for myself way too much here. you have to pay for laundry which no other college makes you do that. washers and dryers stop working frequently and there are only two to three dryers per floor for about 80 people on each floor or more. floor floods in laundry room they have no loading zone to unload your stuff from your car. if you have a ton of stuff to bring up to your room and need to park your car near founders or hudson to do so, you have to call campus safety to tell them you are doing that so they dont ticket or boot your car. (they ask for your plate number car make and model, unbelievable.) the stairs near the h lot (parking lot) can easily trip you if you are not wearing the right shoes. they are stairs with the gaps and holes in them. they dont put salt down properly. i almost fell and hit my head. you cant even use the soccer field as it is only for athletes. you have to pay extra to stay during spring break and thanksgiving break when no other college even charges for that. they just got rid of 11 programs the bad all outweighs the good. the thing that keeps me going here are the people and professors but guess what; you can find that anywhere else. also the towns are cute around dobbs ferry and close to city. that is all i have to say thats good. other than that do not come here. i hope this reaches a prospective student deciding on where to go. it should not be here.
