Prairie View A & M University Reviews

"Attending a historically black university opened my eyes to what it was like to be around people who not only looked like I do to most others, but around people who wanted to achieve like I did. It was very motivating to have professors who knew their subject matter and who were able to share real-world experiences with the class. Our football team needs improvement, but PV has it all. I recommend this university to anyone who is looking or wondering about where to get their education. As long as you stay focused you will succeed.Read Less"

"Prairie View is a great cultural experience. You really have to be committed to getting the most that you can from this school, there are many hidden jewels here if you are willing to find them. The professors really care about you as a person and your success as a professional. of all the MIT, WPI and other "Ivy school" grads I competed against, I was recruited top in my class into a talent development program. Kudos to PV!"

"Prairie View offered a self paced Counseling Program that allowed me to work full time, attend school and tend to my family. Courses are offered in spring, summer and fall in person and online. Great opportunities for career advancement. Students are able to attend half or full time and financial aid is available to those who qualify."

"Prairie View is a good school for minorities in want to make it in engineering. I picked PVAMU initially for my undergraduate because my department head stated he would make sure not only I graduate, but I learn the material. I came back to PVAMU for graduate school for the same reason, but the affordability was a no brainer. I do believe Prairie View can do better as far as grants and incentives for students entering their graduate programs."

"The Pros Affordability of the program. Access to support services. The cons Not enough diversity"

"I have thoroughly enjoyed this program. The professors are very supportive and the curriculum is conducive to work life balance. Would recommend to anyone!!!"

"Prairie View A&M University has a variety of phenomenal programs. They encourage students and support them every step of the way. The only con to this university is the inability to provide quality financial aid."

"You get out of a school as much as you put into it. Just like a job or career. Just like many other school you will have some slackers or lazy dropouts. PVAMU is a smaller campus which means better teaching and learning abilities. You are not just a number in the classroom and expanded learning opportinities are available. When searching for a college you need to look at what your goals are in life and how that college will work for that goal along with your characteristics and best educational environment. It can be a science to selecting the best school for your degree. Before you decide look at how many executives, business owners, PH'd alumni and successful employees that are happy with their careers and motivated come from the school you are considering. The Counseling Program is very personal I know mostly all the professors and classmate. We are truly family orients and work together to reach our career goals.Read Less"
