    Not many recent reviews here. I got my BSN here. The school is a smaller private university. My…read moreclasses were just the right size where you can get to know all of your classmates and professors. However, some of the professors were unprofessional in their teachings, so I'm not sure how they were qualified to teach. There were also magnificent professors that would go out of their way in order to see you succeed. Parking was atrocious before but I'm glad they have a parking garage now. I wished they would have had that when I was in school pre covid. It would have saved me lots of aggravation from finding a parking space. Yeah, there were many times that if you didn't get there early enough then you would be searching for parking in the nearby neighborhoods. They had many lots before but they got filled up way too fast. Cafeteria was very decent. The food they served was good, average quality but a nice variety. The labs for doing your nursing skills were superb. The simulation dummy was very helpful and modern. It was used to help you understand how a real patient would be. The clinical sites they sent us ranged from hospitals to nursing homes to schools. The downside is they would send me to Rockford one day and then Chicago the second day. They should have organized it a lot better. Clinical instructors for the most part were very compassionate and attentive in their guidance. The ATI program they used was worthless and not a very good tool for helping nursing students. That was a waste of money in my opinion. I didn't even use it when studying it for my license. Tuition was expensive for each semester. For the amount of money they charged, they should have brought in the parking garage sooner and better quality food. I commuted so I didn't have to stay in the dorms. Overall I give it about a 3.

    All programs no matter where you go seem expensive on paper but they aren't. I received $19.5k for…read morea transfer scholarship and then took out $700 deferred loan to look desperate which upped my IMAP grant to $9k. I then recouped the $700 each year by qualifying for a low income tax credit which negated my deferred loan. I just paid the $2,100 from my federal tax returns when I graduated. I received another $1,000 from Phi Theta Kappa and began working in my field by my junior year. I think I paid $6k for my degree. As a graduate student at St. Francis I started in the certificate program to take advantage of the lower tuition and received a discount because my company partners with the University. You have 7 years to complete the program. Most employers offer around $5k per calendar year which is about a class per semester and IS considered FULL time. If you drag it out long enough your employer pays for your degree. Essentially making grad school free. As for the program, at St. Francis I'm a person. We're taught by our professors rather than teaching assistants and they know you by name. Their doors are always open. They all have PhDs and have 20+ years of experience in their perspective fields or are still working in addition to teaching full-time. You'll complete typical homework assignments, papers, quizzes, tests, and discussion boards in which both the students and professors participate. In addition to getting a degree you actually learn something here that can be applied to your career and they take academic dishonesty seriously. I'm really glad I stumbled upon St. Francis. It's been nothing short of amazing.

Positives: Professor Doughty speaks fluent English and is a great professor. He teaches Business and has actually ran and sold his own highly successful business. I have learned more about public speaking and people skills in his class than my actual public speaking classes. Professor Benning speaks fluent English and is a great professor. He is enthusiastic and knows how to encourage class participation without making it feel forced. Highly engaging teaching style. Professor Kuhn is pretty funny and brings in some cool guest speakers. Field trips. The school goes up to Chicago for field trips, it's pretty nice. Bloomberg Terminal access. The school has access to the Bloomberg Terminal and opens up access to students which is pretty cool since otherwise I would have to pay about $32,000 per year for one of my own. There are a few impressive alumni (Robert Zemeckis, Dennis Barsema, The Nostalgia Critic, a handful of athletes and state legislators). The Huskies are also actually pretty good at football. Negatives: About half of the Finance/Business professors speak very poor English, and because most of the classes involve numbers, you're on your own. You will need a Chegg subscription. Main road to get to the campus has been blocked off for over a year now. Crime. Muggings, shootings, and rape. The closest gas station has a thick wall of bulletproof glass in front of the cash register. I don't want to act like it's as bad as Rockford or Chicago or something because nobody has given me any trouble but just be warned. Your typical DEI crap. Tampons in the men's bathroom. All College of Business students are forced to attend at least one DEI event before graduating. Here's an example of the title of one of these such events: "Conversations of the Heart: Valentine's Day Queered". Parents - keep in mind this is the kind of thing you're paying $30,000/year for. You are not guaranteed a decent job after all the money you pay. I'd say NIU sucks, but all of this stuff is unfortunately par for the course for higher education in the US at the moment.

    I was taking some classes at Harper Professional Center as part of a certification program and…read morereally enjoyed this building. It's far off from the main Harper campus which for me was a definite plus. That means parking right outside your classroom and you never have to worry about going up & down aisles to find parking. There is always parking at HPC! HPC has a nice computer lab you have full access to including printing, plus a resource in the lab if you need help with anything. Actually the HPC is full of resources there to help with anything an adult learner could need. It's actually a great facility completely geared to the post bachelor degree adult age learners which is nice. My personal opinion is when you're of that age you do well in classes you take because you truly are committed to the learning aspect in your courses as opposed to just getting by, & retaining information for tests. If you need to take some Harper courses and ever see them offered at HPC, I highly recommend opting to take them here. Great staff, location and minimal issues as opposed to the main campus.
