20 Best Rn Programs In Minneapolis, MN (2022 Updated)

I started my online program two years ago at Alex Tech in Paralegal and Legal Administration. I was leery at first of the quality of education an online degree could provide. Alex Tech sets up their legal program so that you graduate with two associate's degrees, Paralegal and Legal Administration, in the two year time frame. The professors for both the legal program and the elective classes are quick to reply to questions. The online program provides flexibility that allowed me to work full time while going to school. I don't think it matters what your situation is, I would highly recommend the program to anyone.Rachel Barr

The staff and teachers were great. The teachers we toured with truely had our daughters education in mind and when they spoke with her they were truely interested about her career focus and really took the time to point out the great programs that would help her achieve her goals. Our 15 year old even fell in love with the school.Brian Dawson

A great school, the teachers teach with care, the administrators administrate with care. The walls are decorated with art, which the art connoisseur appreciates. It's one the most ideal community colleges for casual education out there. Somewhat reminiscent of a miniature Academy of Plato's time.Reviews For Life

I graduated in 2019 from the Human Services and Substance Use Disorder Counseling programs. The course and staff taught me valuable skills and knowledge. Professor Gorski, McHugh, and Lucas in particular went above and beyond to make sure students felt supported and were able to learn to the best of their ability. NTC is truly a college dedicated to educating and preparing students for their prospective career fields! NTC is a college that cares.Natalie

Beautiful campus. Offers many programs for a reasonable price. Tons of accommodations. Great location. Wonderful tour offers. If you’re not sure what you’d like to major in there are brilliant advisors willing and ready to help you decide the route you would like to take. I am rating NTC a 4 star because they don’t offer the respiratory therapy program I am interested in. Other than that aspect wonderful state of the art campusZack Hanson

I visited Northcentral Technical college for my son who is a senior in Elkhorn high school who made it to the semi-finals for WI Esports for the game Smite and they hosted the competition for the semi-finals and finals for numerous games from high schools all over WI and I had a great time and the campus was awesome and really nice, the set up was awesome and everyone was so welcoming, I'd go back anytime!!!Elizabeth Orwig

I loved being a student and now, working at Crown! I grew up in a smaller town, so the small town feel helped it feel a bit more like home. I also enjoy the many acres of land. I am disappointed they haven't built a baseball field yet, but other than that, they have a fantastic disc golf course, brand new football stadium, and even a softball field. And not to mention the beautiful rolling hills with trails to walk. And the Professors?! Don't even get me started- FANTASTIC!Alyssa Kranz

This has been the best educational experience of my life! I feel so blessed to be led by the most invested professors and staff in higher education. Their sincerest desire is to know you and see you succeed on every level! There is not one moment I felt like I slipped between the cracks at this institution, like many others might at huge Universities. This will be the best thing that will have ever happened to me in my career path. Thank you Crown!Miranda Kuschel

My overall experience at Crown was good, but was very disappointed in my last semester at the lack of care and empathy given to students. While prayers are nice, prayers without any empathy or action behind them don't mean anything. Even more disappointing the lack of care came from so called mental health professionals. Overall, I felt like in the end I was just another face in the crowd that they got money from.Sarah Johnson

A very nice campus situated on Lake Bemidji; the lake might double as a parking lot in the winter. Low tuition for Minnesota residents with scholarships available based on academics. If you score well on the ACT and have good grades or a high class rank you likely will get scholarship money. The friendly admissions staff is knowledgeable and provides individualized service. Most of the campus is connected by underground tunnels which is great on a cold or wet day.David S

Don't recommend. The buildings are old and/or full of mold. They preach sustainability yet don't follow their own words. There's a huge lack of communication and transparency. Many professors are petty, the advisors don't know how to advise, committees have way too large of egos, and the food services is terrible.Na An

Dear Bemidji state university . I am Sakkie Burger from Uitkoms in Pretoria and I am Carel Hattingh 's uncle. It's a very nice and beautiful university look like red and white roses in Uitkoms in Pretoria. Lfd. Sakkie. 💓🌟🌙😉😄📷📸Ronel Burger

Spent a year at the MSUM in Moorhead. Pro's: The Sociology program is fantastic. Dr. Vigilant is very knowledgeable and willing to really explain the 'nitty gritty' of what you are learning. Most of the other teachers are very nice and willing to help. Nice campus, the advisers are friendly and mostly available. Con's: The administration is horrible. Worse than horrible. I have been out of school for over 5 years and they still find ways to screw me over whenever I have to deal with them. From key administrative aids being out of the office for weeks, to the purposeful and never ending runaround you get from every single person from billing, to academics, to student aid, to the school board. They impose random holds on your account and never take them off, even after bringing in at least 3 people to resolve the issue. Its the poster-child for bureaucracy. Never trust anyone when they say they will "leave a message" and "I'm sure it's fine."Michael Wojciechowski

Good school. Excellent film, theatre, and education programs. A decent price for the full university experience without having to walk a mile to you next class. Knocked a star off because of the numerous classes cut and horrible decisions made by the last president. The dorms, and other campus facilities are undergoing numerous needed renovations. I would recommend this place to prospective students. Kise Commons on the other hand, best to avoid eating there for every meal. Trust me, you won't go #2 for days. Advice for new students… watch out for the squirrels. Seriously! Watch out for the squirrels! They'll ruin your day! Every long term student and staff member here has a personal story or two to tell you about MSUM's squirrels. I was once walking to class and a squirrel took a Dairy Queen blizzard cup up into the tree and dropped it on a girl's head in front of Ballard Hall and the library!Bryan Folstad

I’m a mature student in the 3rd year of my undergraduate studies at Middlesex Uni, London, UK. Just had an excellent experience from one of the professors from the university who took time to politely respond to my information request regarding one of his excellent and renowned web published articles. Thank you Mr T Gracyk! Your reply has proved vital in my successful completion of an assignment. So generous of him to give his time to someone who isn’t even studying at Minnesota State Uni Moorhead. If the rest of the staff here apply the same level of commitment to their own students and then this is clearly a fanatic establishment in which to broaden minds. Thank you kind Sir 😀si lewis

My grandson attended 1 semester in 2017. The staff appeared to be helpful during the enrollment process. They had him in classes that he shouldn't have had to begin with…. he didnt have a choice to get generals out of the way. They wanted you to take classes that you would have to continue with there so you could never transfer anywhere else. When you set up an account online, if there was a problem getting access, they never assisted you. We ended up with a big bill because staff were never available or returned calls. When my grandson called to speak to them, their lines wouldnt even ring! I personally was present when this happened! He tried to call to tell them he wasn't returning for 2nd semester. Then he received a $980. Bill in July because he never notified them. When I called in May to verify all Bill's were totaled, they assured me it was correct. Then we got that letter in July! So by the time they turned the bill over to Mn Dept of Revenue for collections, they added another $2500. To collect. So the total was over $12,200. For 1 semester! Like I said, the staff appears to be helpful, but when theres a problem, they just arent available to help. Seemed a bit of a scam to me. I personally would steer clear from this institution. It's in a small rural community with very limited employment opportunities for a student to have a part time job. Sorry SMSU for the not so good review, but I feel future students need to hear the truth.D Kruse

I graduated from 2009, and went to a junior college for my first two years. Following that I transfered to SMSU. Once I got to Marshall it was easy to see that I had downgraded. The Campus of SMSU is old and out dated, with poor parking set up. Parking it self is always a risk because of the random parking tickets that get issued. It seems like once a week a person could get a new parking ticket. Class sizes are fair to OK they are not as small as they boast about on the radio, and you are a number at SMSU they are business first organization. If there is a way that they can make an extra dollar or two off of their students they find a way how. Whether its changer around classes for majors so seniors are forced to take extras before they graduate or simply charging extra for classes. SMSU is not the campus the lead people to believe it is. I am from the area born and raised, and had alot of respect for the campus before I went there.. After spending 3 years at SMSU I am disappointed to say i would not recommend this school for everyone… Its a small campus with large campus mind set "SMSU where you are a number"Tim Johnson

I went here a year ago. It was definitely a high school feeling. It had the regular high school clicks. The gym wasn't even that great and was always being used by student athelte. Food was undercooked and it wasn't open the whole day. Housing was awful. The CA never in forced the quiet hours. The dorms and whole school needed updating. Academics was not that great. Professors kept leaving and class got canceled a lot. Class size was average. Financial aid was a pain. It took two to three months just to get a loan thrpugh. I wouldn't recommend to anybody until they do some updating.Zach D

I have had an amazing experience with Herzing University! I am excelling in my degree choice and I couldn't be more satisfied with my learning experience and the flexibility that the online program gives me.The instructors are all willing to help whenever I have a question, and if they see many students struggling with something, they will post an announcement with some helpful tips on how to proceed through our courses. The learning material is easy to understand, the discussion boards really help me connect with my classmates more than I normally would, the library is full of everything you might need for your studies, and the Coach rooms and Tutoring center are very helpful! I have seen many posts off and on about how students struggled in this school. I have to say the most common thing I see students struggling from in these courses is not doing the assigned work on time, not participating in the discussions, and not following the assigned directions on assignments. We have to take responsibility and do our work (on time!) or we will not succeed, and we should not blame someone else for our lack of trying. Just with everything else in life, if you do not put any effort into something, you will not gain anything from it. Overall, if you need a great school, with a good price, amazing learning experiences, and great instructors, then Herzing is the way to go!Kohake Family Shared

I stared with Herzing back in 2013 for my undergrad BSN RN. At that time, school was still establishing itself, therefore, I had some rough time getting through the program, but overall my experience was good. This year I came back for my MSN FNP and let me tell you ))) My experience with Herzing in 2019 is absolutely amazing. This school grew so much! Lots of support, any time you need it, everyone is very attentive and friendly. You still have to do a lots of studying, but isn't what we came here for? I'm beyond satisfied, thank you Herzing faculty and staff, you're the best!KateM M

This University is so awesome. I am in my 3rd semester and am grateful for the progress I am making. I even made the Dean's list! The instructors are active, involved, and try helping you succeed every way they can. I am super excited about where this will take me in my near future. I really enjoy the online learning experience and I'm so happy with the decision I've made.Jasmine Coleman

This is not an honest university. They lie to students just to get their money and do not help students in any way. They even try shady tactics to steal your money like not allowing you to drop all your course within the drop/add period which is odd because that time frame should give you the authority to do so. They try to keep courses on your schedule so they can charge you for it. The financial aid department is rude and can never keep their information straight. You will always get a different answer with them. They are only nice to the students who get duped into giving them money, but if you ask them about your financial aid they get upset as if you are only supposed to be seen not heard. The staff are very unresponsive they do not pick up the phone, return phone calls and do not answer emails efficiently. An example if you ask them how much will it be for four courses and will it be costly. they will answer an answer like how many course do you plan to take. A lot of their answers either don't answer the question, don't make sense or are answering a question with a question. Plus, the cost per credit is very high for the type of school it is. Better schools have a lower cost per credit like schools on the east coast, south and west coast. The President ignores students and doesn't respond to them. Plus, a lot of the staff is lazy. A task that only takes a day or two to complete with take them three weeks. Upon admission they omit a lot of important information to lure you into their program. DO NOT ATTEND THIS UNIVERSITY! THERE ARE BETTER SCHOOLS OUT THERE FOR LESS. CONCORDIA- UNRESPONSIVE. UNREAL.IRRELEVANT.Amy W

This is by far the worst run school I have ever seen. First, the front offices can’t tell if you’re coming or going. They tell you everything is in order but then come back to you after classes are starting and tell you they forgot to submit your paperwork. They also like to have you sign up for programs they have zero possibility of even having get off the ground. So once your registered they pull a bait and switch on you and drop you into a program until your desired program eventually starts. Hint: the program never starts so you owe them a lot of money and never even get the degree you originally desired. This place definitely treats you more as a dollar sign than a student and couldn’t care less about your goals or future. Only that you pay them on time. There is some serious shady business that takes place in this school. Especially in the business programs. I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to find out that they will be under investigation for secretly operating as a “For profit institution”. Hint: they will be soon because they have been reported. Also, don’t expect them to offer you any form of apologies, even when they know they mess up. When three students in a program confront the administrators and program chairs about their desire to learn, and the lack of cooperation from instructors, the entire management team runs and buries their heads in the sand. Honestly, my best advice is to cross this school off your list if you value your future, or have any interest in a real education. Front office: if you read this, we’re still waiting for an apology and some acknowledgement that you hosed us.tony valerio

I'm sure this would be a good school if I was able to actually login and do my work without a problem on a daily basis. But since I have to call the Help Desk everyday to get my password reset so I can get online and do my work, I can't tell. I have no problems logging into any other websites or accounts, and I have dozens of them. But try as I might to do something simple like put in a username and password and be able to get into the site and do my work seems to be a monumental challenge to this school. I've had two classes so far and my experience doing work here is traumatic. I absolutely dread coming to the computer to login because I know it's going to be an hour on the phone with the help desk and they're going to assume the problem is with my computer, like they always do. Someone needs to fix the schools' computer problem and stop blaming students for having login problems.Dino De Rosa

Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College is a special institution in northeastern Minnesota. The College is the only dual public and tribal college in the entire USA. The College offers a wide array of career based and university transfer programming. The campus setting is beautiful. The College offers student housing, athletic facilities, and pleasant student spaces. Administration and faculty deeply care about student results. The College is originally diverse in northeastern minnesota…..40% of it's student body is non-white. Fond du Lac typically enrolls more native american students than any other institution in Minnesota.James Eisenhauer

I graduated in 2010 with 2 degrees. It was a 2 year Tribal College, (had to take the Anishinaabe class), I went for 4ish years I loved it so much! It was affordable with quite a few classes to choose from. When I started, it was a small school with few people in classes, and wonderful instructors that had the time to spend with you if you weren't understanding something. LOVED IT! Then they added sports…. They call themselves Thunder… how do you have a mascot for thunder?Traci Reimers

This 2 yr college is a place of many public events. Right now they are having their last of 4 free summer concerts. Beautiful architecture. Many cultures have gone thru the doors to receive a 2 yr degree and go on to other schools. Their football team..Thunder…has an excellent program..most of the players are from the deep South and experiencing cold for the first time…they house many sports teams. Excellent place. Excellent music tonight! 🎶🎻🎵🎸alice schadewald

Think twice before attending this institution. I was enrolled to begin classes in the fall semester. One week before they began, DCTC contacted me saying they no longer offered the program that I signed up for. Again, ONE WEEK before classes began. This left me almost no time to scramble around looking for another school to attend for the fall semester. That kind of behavior is unacceptable and extremely unprofessional. The whole process just felt off anyway. They were always slow to respond, they fought every step of the way when I presented transfer credits from another institution. I was somewhat relieved in a way knowing I wouldn't have to deal with them any further. What a waste of time.Adam

Didn’t have the best experience overall. The instructor for the automotive technology class was only genuine once while he was teaching me something. Every other time, there was sarcasm and rudeness when trying to ask him questions. Not to mention half of the kids (quote “kids”) in the class were constantly on their phones and messing around. I wouldn’t have minded, except that we were placed in groups, therefor graded as a group. I wouldn’t return for the fact that I learned more working 3 months on the job than I did going 6 months to school, not to mention it was paid for.Sebastian Dina

Received my second degree here and they accepted a respectable number of credits from a previous college. Someone from admin called me a year or so after graduation and asked if I had gotten anywhere with my degree. When he found out what I was doing and where I had gotten in life he nearly dropped the phone. Thanks DCTC for sending me places in life I didn’t think were possible. But remember folks what you get out of it isn’t any more than what you put in.Eric Schmitt

Much of the SCSU campus is beautiful & worth a long walk or bike ride. Lovely historic old buildings & newer buildings show fascinating architecture. Plenty of gardens, benches & green space. Perfect for a decent environment on campus. Nice planning by SCSU leadership! Congrats! Unfortunately…. the city of St Cloud didn't have the same insight & planning skills. Some of the surrounding college neighborhood buildings are owned by cheap, incompetent, opportunistic landlords. Many rental houses & apartments are Ugly eye sores….and this reflects poorly on SCSU!! WHY THE HELL did the city of St Cloud not have stronger building, housing rental codes & regulations? For many years the City Council & other city leadership groups failed SCSU. The nearby older historic homes (on lovely tree lined streets) were once very nice….yet were allowed to seriously deteriorate & become a drawback. This has hurt SCSU regarding new perspective students, home buyers, businesses & visitors. Shameful….for years there must have been Very poor, weak, inept leadership in the city of St Cloud!!! I realize there have been some recent efforts to turn this neighborhood mess around. But the pitiful planning & damage was done over many decades….and the city is facing a very uphill battle. And sadly… SCSU has been left holding the proverbial bag.Richard Quigley

St Clous State isn’t too bad if you don’t care or aren’t paying out of your own pocket. The quality education is low. Lack of resource for students to succeed. Decent professors. Cleaning staffs and financial administration are great. Lacks student diversity and safety. Dorm security needs to be more secure, especially in Sherburn Hall. SCSU get most of their money from international Napel students. Student population is 80% Napel. Highly discourage anyone to attend. First semester/year, you’ll wish you never wasted time and money on SCSU. That’s why their graduation rate is so low (below 50%), students transfer out after attending the first semester/year. Academic Advisors are burnt out, and 1 per program with over 100 students. They don’t know what they’re talking about most of the time. Double check your transfer credits with the head professor of the actual department.Asia Love

Homecoming was fun but not very many participants. The school originally pushing it into October didn't help and then canceling it all together for a large part of a decade. The alumni and students kind of either don't remember or are apathetic towards the concept. The city and the school need to work together with the alumni, student organizations (especially the greeks who have a vested interest in their alumni) to make people interested in coming back every year. Downtown was dead too. School and City should benefit from each other.Jim F.

In the spring of my senior year of high school, I did a self guided 10 minute tour of Macalester with my mom (after applying to Mac on a whim). I saw a guy in overalls with crazy socks and crocs walking around campus and told my mom "I think I should go here." Macalester was not part of the plan, but I am so happy and grateful it became my home. Some of the best people on the planet are found here and they will challenge you and help you grow. I am continually inspired by my classmates and friends post-grad for how they are co-creating a world that is more just and sustainable. So much love always for Mac <3Ariana Hones

Beautiful campus – especially in the fall! I love being able to go on runs by the Mississippi River and go to concerts in the Twin Cities. The people are also some of the most dedicated and engaged individuals I've ever met. My first year floormates remain some of my closest friends to this day. I also still keep in touch with professors. They are so accessible and really want to see you succeed! During my time at Mac, I had multiple professors invite me to their homes and take time to get to know me outside of the classroom. The faculty to student ratio is one of the main things that makes Mac special.Sierra Pancoast

I had a great experience at Mac, and I would strongly recommend it for anybody looking for a liberal arts education in an urban setting. The culture on campus is great, the classes and professors are high quality, and Minneapolis, St Paul, and surrounding suburbs have tons of social life accessible via public transit or car.Ari Weiland

My husband & I graduated from what was then Bethel College & Seminary in 1968. My years there are among the best of my life! We were privileged to sing with the College Choir – the best of the best of my lifetime experiences. I most highly recommend Bethel to anyone trying to select the best college to attend. I especially recommend it to music majors as their music program is outstanding! Bethel is a Christian University with a student body consisting primarily of dedicated Christian young people. As with any Christian school, there are a few students who are sent there by their parents with the hope that the school will straighten them out. Fortunately, these students are few and far between! I can't recommend Bethel highly enough!Kim43

I received my BA and my MA from Bethel and can say without a doubt that this University set an amazing trajectory for me in having a successful career. Beyond that, my faith was challenged and deepened. I've continued to build on 20+ years of incredible friendships that began at Bethel. Now, it is a joy for me to see MANY of my peers send their own kids to Bethel and to hear of the ways that they, too, are setting their feet on a firm foundation in faith and in vocational training.Jennifer Scott

I remember walking through the halls of Bethel University saying “I could live here”. Beautiful scenery, great food! Oh! The food!, quality of education is 🌎 class, they take sports seriously 🙌🏽, hostels are homely and the environment is clean. I am not an academic person but if I got a scholarship to Bethel, I would be the most enthusiastic academic individual you’ve ever seen 😂.Daniel Chikhwaza

So forever grateful I was able to spend 4 amazing years at this school. I am not sure what the other people reviewing recently are talking about, as I felt the community at this campus is very welcoming and friendly. It is a catholic school so they do teach and emphasize catholic studies, however there are many classes that center around other beliefs. I never felt like my beliefs were being stomped on, and I am not catholic. Also, if you are worried about your social life and getting the college experience, don't be! You can definitely still have the college experience and attend St. Kate's. The campus always has activities going on, and there are many schools in the area. I would definitely recommend this university!Katie M

First I want to say my advisor was amazing she was super helpful through all this mess. I was supposed to start this month but they said they were missing things so I couldn’t get in until the next semester when they had everything. but we had already sent them everything we had sent to every other college we applied to. They were the only ones we had this problem with. They then today told me that we weren’t gonna be accepted due to the fact that they don’t accept the accredited bodies that my school was accredited by due to varying standards idk what that means. But this was all something I wish they had just told me that from the beginning. absolute waste of my time and just stressful, plus expensive.Maddie Grace

This school is way too expensive for an OTA degree. You can also get the same online degree at less expensive colleges. I do not recommend St. Kate’s to anyone. Unless you have the extra money to waste. Plus, their requirements are ridiculous. Before I spent my money I did my research and thankfully I found an excellent college with amazing people who are always willing to help their students.Clara Diaz

After spending 4 1/2 years at UNW my thoughts and experience would take a book to finish. But I'll try to be short. Pros. I loved most of my professors. I had professors who actually cared for my success and are willing to go out of their ways to help. Many of my professors knew me personally and I wasnt just a number in their schedule. Which I can't say my other friends from other colleges can say. UNW pushed me out of my comfort zone and helped me realize what my passions are; through realizing how much I disagreed with the institution, but nevertheless I matured. The friends I've made. True and great friends who all felt the same. lol Cons: granted not every student is and thinks the same, but there's enough consensus to make me believe the school does way too little to better itself. Too much of the school thinks they're past racism. Whenever we reach a topic on anything related to culture or race we would have less than 2 days to talk about it while other topics used a week easily. Professors uncomfortability trumps the need to discuss out issues. Teachers have openly say diversity is the issue. 100% of school advertisement would showcase vast variety of diversity and multiculturalism, yet students of color makes less than 5% of the entire body. And 95% of the students in the advertisements don't even go to Northwestern. I know this because I know most of those students and they've graduated years ago. Academically it was subpar for the price of admission. Tuition jumped $10,000 within the time I was there. The school preaches love yet it's hard to find any. As a student of color, for years i felt so out of place. We were referred as a horde of animals, we were unvalued, and were expected to fit into that sameness the school holds on to. I've heard and seen many use their gospel to reject our presence. They're friendly on the outside but could care less about who you are. There's more I can say, but my verdict is this: if you like monoculture, ethnocentrism, expensive decent academics, and want to go back to your tiny town, then Northwestern is great for you. If you're a student of color who wants a supportive community, a student body that strives for cultural acceptance, understanding, and REAL gospel love equaled with high academic quality, go somewhere else. Save yourself A LOT of money.whatcha howsya

This school needs to adapt to the supply and demand of skills in the market workplace. There are more students than there are jobs demanding the skills that this college and colleges in general is teaching. For example, the MIS program focuses heavily on programming and not enough in other IT skills such as business intelligence, data analytics, business/systems analysis, and quality assurance. Sure, this program and its current state of heavy programming courses has worked well for most alumni's to get roles in both programming and non-programming jobs but that is not the case for some students that do not have that high of a GPA. These students will have a TOUGHER time finding a job in a IT role that they want because they were not given the ability to choose more courses relevant to their career choices as opposed to a student that is more technical savvy and understand technology in general better. Not saying that these students with lower GPAs won't find a job but just that it will be 2-3 times as tougher. Companies are looking for more than just programmers but yet UNW and colleges in general continues to push a lot irrelevant coding courses on them that they will never use. I have been out of this school for a while and not once have I have had the need to use java, xml, and visual basis nor did the roles I have interviewed for (from the IT topics I listed above) have asked for it. A lot of companies are hiring for business/systems analysis, business intelligence, data analytics, and quality assurance but programming is the main focus for this program. This program is still stuck in the 80s-90s. This school needs to start adapting to the supply and demand of the workplace market.James Smith

I loved parts of my time on at Northwestern. I was in choir, played on the men's soccer team, and participated in various student clubs. But let's be real, Northwestern is only a friendly place if you are a white evangelical who is cool with patriarchy and spiritualized ethnocentrism. Do not attend if you are a person of color. They are institutionally racist and theologically conservative. I majored in education ( I now teach in South Bronx) and was not trained well to educate a diverse classroom. I even had professors deny racism was a real issue … In education, are you serious? (Can you say school to prison pipeline ?) The biblical studies department act like the Jesus police, and do not appreciate any perspective outside of selective biblical literalism. There are a few shining stars on staff who think outside the box, but they are literally apart of the underground and cannot speak openly in fear they will be excommunicated and fired. One saving grace is that Ron Ginn got me a placement teaching in North Minneapolis where I found great mentors. Such a sweet and loving man. This is a wonderful place if you are straight, conservative, classist, theologically conservative, white and plan to never interact with anyone outside of white evangelicalism. Be prepared to have loving people shame you with the bible if you think differently or look differently. Bethel is only slightly better, my wife attended there and said they are worse lolJon Avery Morales

I appreciate Rasmussen University for having an abundance of resources and many professors and other staff members who demonstrate they want students to succeed. I especially have enjoyed being a peer educator, being privileged to work with Tammy Hopps who is an excellent supervisor and leader, and also being able to work with other peer educators who care for their peers as much as I do. I transferred from a local state college, which I considered sticking with to save money, but in reality, not much is saved when you compare the timeframe for graduation. At the state college it would take me an extra 2 whole years to receive my BSN, whereas at Rasmussen I save 2 years of time because of their second-degree BSN option. I am very pleased with the quality of technology – at the state school blackboard and other resources were slow and did not work as well on my cell phone, whereas with Rasmussen I can easily access everything I need from my phone when I'm on the go. It's inspiring to see so many single parents and married parents in school, some of which also work full time or part time like myself while completing their degree. Highly recommend!HappyNessa11:11& Family

I had such high hopes when enrolling at this school. However my experience hasn't been favorable at all. I am a current student and I was disappointed because even though I was able to enroll and start classes I really felt unsupported on this journey. I'm realizing Rasmussen may not be the school for me. I REALLY thought I would be supported and encouraged. I was made to feel that Rasmussen would be rooting for me through my academic journey. Instead I am bombarded with emails and calls telling me what I already know… I owe money. No calls or emails about how I can be helped to budget so that I can pay more toward the balance. I'm only being told: what I owe, to get the balance down to $500-$1000 and to take out loans; which will only put me in debt and it's too early to be taking out loans when I've been in school since September of 2021 and have 2 more years. Also this school doesn't cater to single parents, limited income and individuals that HAVE to work. This school ONLY has day classes for the nursing program and as I said before I HAVE to work full time.Sherria Clark

This morning I called the university for the North Orlando Campus for the Nursing program and spoke to the director of Nursing who was discusstingly rude on the phone. I called to get information, He had no patience and told me Not to proceed a career in Nursing because it was Not for me. This was a university that I was so excited to be a part of and be a graduate of Nursing. The director needs to be Fired because he is giving the university a bad reputation. To whom it may concern please take this review into consideration and hire a new director of Nursing for the program.Georgia Conde

The school is great I would give it 5 stars. The on campus housing I would give zero stars. Just don't live on campus, there is a lot of crime in the housing. My first year here was great I didn't have a problem. This year is my second year and I have had bad luck with my whole roommate situation. I have had my stuff get stolen on two separate occasions. The first time my mini fridge and a poster got stolen I went to the housing directors and they said to me. "I don't know what you want me to do about it it's not like I can go check every ones dorm." They do have the authority to go and do that, because they did it early this year when one of the R.A.'s got some of his stuff stolen. Also they didn't want me to fill out a report about it because they have to send all of the crime reports to the state and it all goes up online. They will try to discourage people from filling out the reports and will not even tell you about it unless you ask to fill one out. My mini fridge eventually showed up, because I was asking every one about it and my guess is who ever took it got scared and ditched it. The second time stuff was stolen from me I had a whole cupboard of food stolen and the housing director won't do anything. Depending on your roommate situation you can have a great time or a terrible time, If I would have known I was going to have such bad roommates and the housing directors wouldn't do anything I would have lived off campus. Last year I didn't want the school year to end, and now I can't wait to leave and go home. So if you come to VCC I would highly suggest living off campus because this is a great school, it's just the housing situation isn't the greatest. It is also cheaper to live off campus then it is to live on campus. This is still a great school to come to great classes and teachers will help you out if you need it. Don't decide to not come because of what I wrote about because this is the best school I have ever seen.barry melrose

Tried to get a transcript from my PSEO years sent out for free as the website stated I could if I was sending my transcript to a university and the admissions lady was the most downright rude person I have had the misfortune of talking to. To any vcc kids, if that shows how they're treating you guys good luck.Felicia Sweeney

Friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable instructors make this an excellent place for those interested in outdoor careers. Situated, as it is, on the edge of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area, the school offers experiences and experiential learning not found most anywhere else.Tim Drake

Both of my boys attended this college. It is the gem of the UM system. As others have noted, the class sizes are small and the profs actually do the teaching, getting to know their students in a way that can't happen in a graduate research facility such as the main campus in the Twin Cities. Tuition is very affordable which was a bonus for this single parent. Although there is some typical college town alcohol abuse, neither of my kids came across hard drugs. NO METH!! If you are looking for a progressive, environmentally conscious, diverse group of people, Morris may be just the place for you!Bea Winkler

UMM offers everything you'd want from a small, private liberal arts college, but because it's a public school it costs considerably less. I studied music here, and I couldn't recommend this department highly enough–particularly if you're interested in piano (incredible instructors) or composition (lots of enthusiasm for student works). The campus itself is beautiful, the student community is intimate and fun, and the professors are super accessible. I'd give the place six stars if I could.Mitch Grussing

I attended this University years ago! It was awesome and weird at the same time. They have some really caring professors, the counselors could use a bit of a touch up on understanding and relating to the student needs. This is definitely a college town and everything is far away. So be careful when traveling to the nearest store which was like 7-11 or a gas station convenience store. My dorm was in a coed building and lucky my room was near the bathroom. Dorm size was pretty cool.Nicole Smith

Currently in the Automotive program and beyond grateful to be at Dunwoody. Dunwoody has already changed my life and it's only fall semester. In my honest opinion if you are seeking a top notch school Dunwoody has you covered. Aside from being a father (which will always be number one) attending Dunwoody was the best strategic decision I've made. Thank you for letting me share my experience so far.Halfbreed

The staff at this college is absolutely phenomenal (or at least the staff I have met this far). They went out of their way to help me in a situation I didn't ever think would have a resolution. In addition, this school proves you don't need a 4 year degree to get an amazing job as most of their degree programs are 2 years, yet they still retain an amazing job placement rate.Brandon

This place forever changed my life. I thrived in the small class sizes and hands on approach to labs. Dunwoody has close ties to industry professionals that help shape and guide the curriculum. I highly recommend this school. Keep in mind it is private, not-for-profit, and entirely tuition driven, so staff and faculty are very dedicated to student success.Mark Anderson

I currently attend a different college online. I have four remaining courses left of my program, three are offered spring semester while one isn't offered until fall. The one course I need that isn't available at my current college is available at Inver Hills which is why I enrolled in the course for spring. Upon completion, the course I take will transfer back to my original college so I can graduate spring. I have worked out all the details with my current college about this arrangement. I need Inver Hills to provide some bits of information and complete a form. I have spent the last week calling Inver Hills to which nobody responds. I have tried calling different departments-financial aid, admissions, etc. to which nobody responds. I have sent multiple emails to which I received only one response telling me to look at the Web site. Inver Hill's communication with students is terrible! This is ridiculous. What are the advisors and admission staff doing all day where they cannot be bothered to answer a phone call, email, or provide information?!Kat Elizabeth

I haven't even started the semester yet and have had everything that could possibly go wrong do so. They transferred my credits incorrectly which set back my registration by a few weeks, after two months my financial aid is still "processing" even after multiple phone calls being reassured it would be through the next day. Having no financial aid means my text book order was cancelled. And a week before classes start they dropped one of my courses putting me short on credits for graduation. No matter what time of day I call any department no one ever seems to answer and we play phone tag for days. All in all my experience seems to indicate that no one really cares about helping students and just goes through the motions. Happy the majority of my classes are online and I won't have to deal with anyone on campus for the most of the semester.Katelyn Niesen

I must ask those who complained about this school why did you enroll? I found my education and time here at Inver Hills highly useful. Why spend 64 credits when you can earn your 2 year degree for 60 credits and half the cost of your tuition at other community colleges? If you make the most of your time in school and do your work on time. You could get a lot out of it and done with a degree with the field of your choice. You can even take an advanced degree such as a Bachelors here. I love that I do not need to go to a main campus and take courses at IHCC. I am back to finish a few credits at IHCC and transfer to Metro State University to complete my Bachelors. Just like you shop for cars, the latest technology, and other stuff why not compare schools? Have you ever heard not to judge a book by its cover?Rachel Kelly
