Please don't be fooled by the tour…every tour group is shown only the "nice" side of campus on the only sunny day we ever have. The campus is dreary, the weather is terrible, the dorms are filthy and well below the national standard of living, advisors are condescending and rude, the teachers are all foreign, and you can't leave once you're here because none of your credits transfer. Tuition is exorbitant and you will never get your money's worth.

Guys - There are no women here.

Women - You will constantly be harassed and ogled.

There is absolutely no social life, no camaraderie, and no respect among students. You are constantly woken up by sirens, trucks, fire alarms, or airplanes (campus is 4 miles from the airport!). The food is overpriced poison, and dealing with food services, facilities management, or campus safety is a nightmare…

All of your teachers will be Indian and for the first two years, you take nothing but calculus and chemistry so by the time you actually start learning about your major, you have lost all interest. Lab and classroom equipment is substandard, the buildings are hideous and unsafe.

Please, save yourself FIVE years of agony and look elsewhere for education…
