My experience at the university of Scranton was good overall. I was able to retain information more easily since the class sizes are smaller and you are able to easily participate and ask questions. Something I did not like is that it is not a very sports heavy campus.

I attended the University of Scranton for Graduate School to obtain my MBA. I enjoyed the structure of the classes. My coursework was all online, which was needed because I was working a full-time job at the time. I was able to periodically take breaks from coursework during my busy periods at my job because of the College's rolling-eight week courses. It provided lots of flexibility for a person working full-time.

DO NOT GO HERE !! I chose this school and it is my biggest regret. They DO NOT care about student’s wellbeing. I have spent only a semester here and I am transferring. I can’t get out fast enough. Also, I know about 9 other kids who I have talked to personally that are also leaving this school but I know the number is much higher. The food here is awful to the point where I stopped eating entirely so I’ve lost a lot of weight. I cannot stress enough that YOU DO NOT WANT TO COME HERE !!! You will... Read More

Overly pricy for the degree I earned. Disappointed that the program was discontinued shortly after completion.

The University of Scranton has provided me with a very rigorous academic program preparing me fully for my journey to dental school. The professors of this university provide an open door policy, which ensures that my academic needs are met. Through the open door policy, I am able to seek advice from my professors regarding personal concerns about future life goals, course selections needed to graduate, and any conflicts faced throughout my academic or private life. Throughout my four years, I learned... Read More

The University of Scranton offered an education that was priceless. I had only been teaching for one year before I began my Master's program in Curriculum and Instruction, and was still trying to find my way as an educator. This program helped me define my philosophy of education, and made me a more confident teacher. I learned a wealth of information regarding the history of education in America, the different methodologies teachers can use, the best approaches to technology in the classroom, and... Read More

As a mom and military spouse, the online program at The University of Scranton has been a blessing. The courses are structured in a way that is easy to follow and the online program is no different from the campus program. The instructors are real-world professionals who bring current news into the classroom to teach us how to deal with real situations and to improve critical thinking. While I'm still attending, the classes I have completed are already helping me to advance in my career and preparing... Read More

The professors look at you as much more than a student. They care about your whole well being and want to see you succeed. I cannot say enough positive things about this program. I felt prepared and confident for my career as a registered nurse after gradation.

The University of Scranton has bestowed upon me the greatest nursing education I could have ever imagined. The professors and advisors I have encountered along the way at "Da U" have changed me for the better and have guided me each step of the way in achieving the ultimate success of obtaining my Bachelor's Degree. The University of Scranton is a community of learning but also a community in which friendships are built and close relationships develop because the smaller size of the school allows... Read More

The pros of the University of Scranton's online Master's in Health Administration program are the CAHME-accreditation, internship component, accessibility to professors, flexibility and structure to fit the schedules of working professionals. The cons of the program are the lack of scholarships, graduate student teaching assistantship or research assistant positions.

The University of Scranton MHA program is a great place to pursue a masters level education. The biggest asset of the program is the faculty support regarding course work and research as well as their commitment to assisting in job placement after graduation. The program requires a 6month residency at the completion of the academic course work. This residency is coordinated through the program and many students find employment at these locations at the conclusion of the residency. This is a component... Read More

I loved Scranton. It was a true community. It was on the smaller side compared to big schools (example penn state) but never felt too small. People were genuine, witty, fun and kind. It also was populated with students from the NY, NJ, PA and CT area. So everyone was a little different and a little alike. Just good people who like to party. cheers!

The online program was sufficient! Some of my professors were fantastic and others were simply "okay," but that's true of most schools. My advisor Ivan Shibley was fantastic and helped me a bunch. I also gave the school 10 stars for the areas I didn't know about -- my program was online.

I'm currently enrolled in the Masters of Health Administration program, and the pros of our program is that it definitely sets you up for the future. A pro that is also a con is that the material we learn won't be used immediately as one starts their career, but the education sure helps graduates of the program get to higher levels quicker where that education is really put to use. Cons of the program are honestly not much. There's not too much of a financial focus. Some may argue it's important... Read More

The University of Scranton allows for a continuation into the graduate program from the undergraduate programs with a guaranteed seat. The main con is that it's fairly expensive.
