I am currently a first year freshmen atAveragePsychology
I am currently a first year freshmen at the school an it's just horrible I honestly feel like we were just dumped in these sorry classes with these professors that honestly couldn't care less about us or what grades we got. They always complained about having us there it's rather a let down I had so many high hopes for this school Im pretty sure they only wanted freshmen to go there only to get more money an remodel the place. It just sucks I wish I could just transfer to my community college at least I wouldn't feel so overwhelmed because I would get a placement test an be in classes I can actually handle and I can do the work.

Question
The school is quite affordable and offers aQuite BrightArt & Design Department
The school is quite affordable and offers a lot of night classes, most of the staff is friendly. However, it is very difficult to contact many staff members and professors - limited office hours, delayed response or no response at all from emails. Many of the professors I had at my time at this school did not seem to be fully interested in teaching. This may be due to the amount of students who don't seem to care either, because there are a lot of those as well. I felt particularly uninspired and unmotivated at this university. Though it was an affordable school and course hours work well with a full time work schedule, I would choose to attend a different university if possible.

Please don't waste your time or money on this school the Art program is literally a joke. The professors are unorganized and really don't care about the students.
