"The pros are great acting professors and an overall understanding of the industry so far. The cons are lack of information on the diverse educational background on the history worldwide of Theatre and the actor and the division to incorprate a better understanding and the followup and attention given to each individual on their acting ability at times can at times fall short based off of the amount of money we spend on this program. Also we have very little room on our floor to practice for things like scene work, dance, or music. I think if this is a drama school we should have more of a floor. We share it with buisness majors who can't stand us because we are loud due to the type of work we do."

"Overall I was disappointed with my experience here at Pace and would not recommend their Forensic program. The dean of the program is impossible to get in touch with, he does not respond to emails forcing you to sit outside his office and hope wait for him to arrive. He never offered any guidance for internship or thesis."

"Pro: Accounting classes are detailed and will make you prepared, and Big companies do come here to recuit. Con: -If you are looking for academic study or finding the truth of the world, you are in the wrong place. Some professors involve personal emotion in their teaching and not being neutral as an academic researcher. -Library is noisy. -OSA is not very friendly. -Big company here mainly look for undergrates. -Living costs are expensive"

"The school is located in Manhattan, meaning that there are tons of opportunities at arm's reach. The professors all work in the field, some at the NYPD, so they have real life experience. The downside is that the school is expensive. Also, housing is very expensive as it is New York."

"I love the MS Computer Science program at Pace University. Most of the courses are held in a classroom setting and the faculty/staff are very resourceful. I wish the University would offer more scholarships to graduate students that are returning to Pace. Most of the Pace Alumni community donate hundreds of dollars back into the school and it would be nice if graduate students would benefit from the scholarships as well."

"Definitely one of the best acting programs in the country. However, cost of living and tuition fee is very expensive and the school does not make sure of representation after."

"Pace overall is an okay school and it is evident that many of the undergraduate students do not feel the need to really strive for high grades. However, the graduate program I am a part of is incredible. I enjoy the classes and the professors. I also find the students just the right amount of competitive. They are all striving for high marks, but are willing to help each other out. I would recommend the forensic science program to anyone interested."

  • Degree: Physician Assistant
"Pace University has an amazing graduate program for physician assistant studies as compared to other schools. They are very punctual and have everything set up into a schedule for the students. They have many opportunities for their students including simulation labs, cadaver labs at NYU, real lab exam rooms, staff and professors that are available everyday and their location is in the center of it all. I honestly haven't found any cons yet."

"I went to Pace because of the reputation and I still believe the city campus is a great place to learn. Unfortunately the Graduate Center in White Plains, which is marketed towards full time working students in Westchester, falls short and is a disappointment. The scheduling is sometimes difficult because there are so few classes offered, which means they often conflict and there are virtually no online classes. Also some of the teachers are completely out of touch with technology and how to deal with adult working students. Truly disappointed and would not recommend the Westchester campus."

  • Degree: Nursing
"The pros of the graduate program is the flexibility, faculty support and great education. The con is the cost of the program and financial aid. I graduated from Pace with a nursing degree and I enjoyed the competitiveness. I am a confident registered nurse now due to the great education I received from Pace."

"Located in the heart of NYC's financial district, the school has nearly unlimited access to resources to assist the students."
