Franklin Pierce University Reviews

"Choosing which college to attend was really a struggle for me. As the deadline to decide a school approached, an admissions member personally called me and talked me through the decision process, being completely unbiased about Franklin Pierce. She just wanted to help me and relieve some stress. This is the attitude of everyone that works at Franklin Pierce, from the faculty members, to the staff, and even the environmental services. The biology and environmental sciences faculty are amazing and willing to help with anything. Their office doors are never closed and you can walk right in with questions pertaining to class or even just to chat. The campus is beautiful whether its spring and the flowers are blooming or covered in snow and the school provides numerous campus wide activities to promote a sense of community. Pearly Pond is open during the fall and spring semesters when the weather is nice and you can take out kayaks and paddle boards. You will really feel at home here and I encourage everyone to attend."

"Franklin Pierce University was an amazing experience. The faculty truly care about you as an individual and want you to succeed. Small class sizes also ensure that you're not just a number, but an individual. You're encouraged to think, voice your opinion and learn about the world around you. Not to mention that the campus is beautiful. Spending four years at Franklin Pierce gave me the knowledge and confidence to succeed as an adult. This school is great for students who are community oriented and don't want to blend into the crowd. Ultimately, Franklin Pierce was the right choice for me. Are some of the dorms dated, yes, does the water contain minerals that cause it to not be crystal clear after a rain, sure, but those issues pale in comparison to the friendships and experience that Franklin Pierce offers."

"The school administration is very unorganized. They don't care about their students, they just try and trick more students into going there. The dorms are dirty all the time. The water is gross. The food is extremely bad. The students are all stuck up."

"Program makes you feel like you exist as a student, you're not just a face in a crowded classroom. You're provided with a high quality education that prepares you for a future in physical therapy."

"Pros: We have a small classroom size so the student/faculty ratio is great. You don't feel like you're lost in the crowd at this school. You get a TON of one-on-one attention and the professors are very responsive and helpful. Professors here really allow students to become autonomous and self-motivated, which will be of great use in the career world. We just relocated to a brand new facility and have begun to expand in size and equipment which is wonderful. Aside from the great school, we are located in Arizona- who doesn't love warm weather year round, not to mention so many great opportunities for clinicals? Cons: Our satellite school has only been around for 3 years so there are still quite a few kinks to work out. They are constantly changing the curriculum every year and have a lot of guest speakers from other schools so it is difficult to find consistency at times. Because we are so new, we definitely do not have the most up to date technology and equipment which can be frustrating."

"It is awful! The only thing they are worried about is your money!!!! And they screw you when it comes to your financial aid and graduation!!! REALLY BAD SCHOOL!!!!"
