    I am an aluma of Nardin. Absolutely loved the school when I attended. I sent my daughter there,…read moreper her choice, many years later. I made a horrific mistake. Nardin, I believe, has changed. It's wonderful for an education and has rated number one for many years in the parochial high school element. They've lost their personality. It's all about maintaining status. My daughter chose this school for the wrong reasons. It's cool location. I prepaid her freshman year and was beset by calls from her guidance counselor saying that she is just not up to par. She is not good enough to stay. No offer of reimbursement for tuition paid...just remove her. Also, her purse was taken. Nardin not responsible. The agnst that this small school caused was long lasting. Her lost purse, sans cell fone and personal touch cafeteria card, was returned albeit 4 months later. Guidance counselor is long gone, I believe her sole purpose in life was to bother individuals. Her office, in the lower part of the building, was the smoking lounge when I attended. Cool school, be careful.

    My daughter is a 2016 grad, I couldn't be prouder or happier with her education. There were a few…read moreteachers and faculty that you might complain about, but the small issues were shadowed by the community and dedication to preparing young girls into confident capable women. Because of her high scoring metrics several top schools recruited her with generous offers. We decided on NU because it had her major and no students loans were needed. We've made it through the first dream. Now the goal is to make NU realize they picked the right woman for the job. Any grad schools wanna get in early on a top tier student?

I don't recommend this school anymore. I recommend DYC pre current president (go back in time before 2017).

    I did a semester in the bachelor of science business program. I got a 4.0 but I won't be returning…read morefor a variety of reasons. Students are an afterthought at DYC. I understand the pandemic through a lot of things into chaos, but this was already supposed to be a fully on-line on-demand program for working people, and my concerns are mostly not pandemic related. DYC wants your money and doesn't care about you as a person. While the admissions folks were very responsive and in constant contact, that all ended once I became a student. Professors were not responsive nor was the head of the department when I had general questions about the program. Additionally, the program the admissions folks sold me on does not in fact exist. I was under the impression I could attend on-line, full time, on demand (meaning no set class times), and that the classes were offered in succession - meaning taking one class at a time for a month each rather than 4 classes concurrently for the whole semester. After I started, I was concerned about the lack of course offerings and was told that "full-time" in an on-line program meant 2 classes per semester. How is that full-time? It would take someone 8 years to complete their bachelors from scratch. That is not full-time, even by their own financial aid definition. I was new to this whole "pay several hundred dollars for an on-line text book and exclusive access to all your tests and quizzes" models but I had heard about this. Before I started, I was aware that the textbook industry was not lucrative enough because they make no money on the sale of used books. However, if I am paying several hundred dollars for a third party vendor to provide the tools to teach myself, why is there even a professor? Why not drop the professor and include the cost of this robot professor in the cost of tuition? Why am I paying the same price for YouTube videos that others are paying for 6 hours a week of live instruction? If you want an idea of the quality of the education, look at the some correspondent from the president of the school. She would get an F for grammar, punctuation, ability to coherently express a thought, and, if she didn't actually write it, plagiarism. There's a way to denote in a business letter that someone else drafted it. "I regret to inform you as a result of the continuing novel coronavirus pandemic, you can see the crises [sic] has touched every aspect of our lives and has severely impacted a variety of businesses." -President Lorrie Clemo. I don't mind paying for an education but the BS in Business seems like a lot of money just for a piece of paper. Even with a tuition waiver, it wasn't work the money or time investment.

    Canisius is one of my alma mater's, as I graduated a few months ago. That being said, yes, other…read morepeople are correct about their $$ issues. However, this has not directly impacted students as of yet. Approved classes being offered are dwindling, but each department has their strengths and weaknesses. I had no issue getting courses to complete my Communication and Business degree due to some finagling with my department chairs. If I did not have that relationship, I would not have been able to fulfill both my degree paths. In addition, I was a transfer student, and it was not completely explained to me that I would have to take 2 religion, and 2 philosophy courses on top of fulfilling all of the capstones. That information should be communicated far better than it was, as I am still writhing because that cost me an additional $20K. I guess that is why the gentleman that put my transfer package together is no longer with Canisius. Overall, most of my professors were stellar; specifically Dr. Dahlberg, Dr. Braunscheidel, and Dr, Haselswerdt. As well, I loved all of my courses with Prof. Nancy Lynch, Prof. Rick English, and Dr. Foster. Having those amazing educators/professors on staff saved me from transferring again after an initial disappointing semester with a few adjuncts and tenured staff. I can only speak with ethos to the Communication, Business & Political Science Department, but if you are thinking of attending Canisius in one of those concentrations, do it. As well, the Athletic teams are stellar. I even did crew for a bit, but found I did not have the time to dedicate to it. So, if you are thinking of attending Canisius for athletics. Definitely do as well. As well, take Business Ethics PHI242 (it fulfills a business & philosophy requirement, but also the ethics attribute) with Dr. Sean Donaghue-Johnston (he is an adjunct, but let me tell you, and amazing one). He's absolutely fantastic, you'll learn a lot, and expand your mind a bit, which never actually hurts :) I've taken one star off for the transfer process, and the $ issues, but feel I received a stellar education due to the folks I mentioned above. Go Griffs!!

    It's unfortunate that I have to even give the university one star.They don't deserve it. This is my…read more3rd attempt at leaving a review.I feel for some personal reason the moderator's keep deleting my post. I had question for them specifically and they don't respond ? All I said in my last 2 posts is I was disappointed in the university's speeches for the graduation that we attended a couple weeks ago. I feel politics has no place in a commencement speech. Parents are there to support their kids and watch them graduate. It is not up to the university to push its opinion on the attendees.
