Year three and it possess the same lack of professionalism and lack of organization as before.(Despite the New Administration) Dorm Check-in at 8 am and no one there. Process didn’t get started until 8:30 with nursing orientation to begin at 9am. (By the way whose idea was it to have nursing orientation on the same day as Dorm move in) I then had them tell me that my daughter’s bill has increased as they no longer have Missouri on the list of states that receive in state tuition. So she owes $4,000 this semester after financial aid.(Who has that just sitting around…NOT I) My daughter’s dorm accommodations were not presented in timely manner which caused for additional drama with getting her settled. The icing on the cake was that not any of the sanitizer stations were filled and several hall bathrooms didn’t have soap. My daughter just called and stated that her air is out in her room.
I will be contacting both state and federal officials to begin an audit and investigation on the recruiting practices along with the practices & procedures within the administrative offices such as financial aid, bursar, and other student services as my students records don’t show a Thoroughbred scholarship nor the in state tuition assistance. My daughter is sticking it out because she feels she has come to far to allow the lackluster attitudes of the powers that be to stop her from pursuing her nursing dreams.
Save yourself the headache
This school broke my heart! I’ve always wanted to attend an HBCU & they ruined my experience!! They don’t give a damn about their black students ESPECIALLY the nursing program. So glad I switched states & completed the program else where (BSN :)))). If you’re a nursing student leave IMMEDIATELY!!!!!! The nursing instructors are the WORST & they could care less if you succeed or fail. I thought this was a lie until I experienced it for myself. I won’t be surprised if they get shut down. The nursing lab was old & out dated (so were our dorm rooms). The nursing lab instructor was a real B-word, rude, condescending, and I don’t know why they got rid of other staff and left her. They have a new program president every 2wks. My cousin graduated the yr before I enrolled & she had nothing but good things to say. I told her of my experience & she was pissed for me. I’m doing this review because I don’t want anyone to have this experience. Go elsewhere! Don’t believe me? Ask ANY nursing or other student from this school. Throw the whole school away! The food was nasty. The dorms were old & repairs took the entire school yr to be fixed. Other faculty/staff acted like they didn’t want to help or they didn’t know what they were doing. Just UGH :((((((
Please do not send your kids to this college, and if your child is set on going here please make sure they are informed of everything theyll have to deal with before choosing this college!
Im frankly disappointed and frustrated that nothing has been done about this place! The only black college here and they have ran it into the ground! Arent you embarrassed by that?! No one wants to answer the phones, no one wants to guide the students, except for the small amount that actually care. It should not be this difficult to get an education! You all are setting these young adults up to hate the college experience and you should be ashamed!
If things dont get better, which I doubt they will.. I hope you all are shut down!
Oh and to add: having your employees leave good reviews isnt going to help when you have actual students stressed to the max and crying their eyes out because they cant find some guidance!! Which is what yall are paid for!!
