"I had a great experience. I was a night student and would go to class after work. The class sizes were small, and the Professors were always available for help on the side if needed. Even though I was a night student I still was able to participate in a ton of school activities, which made me par t of the school's social community as well."

"I am a current Liberal Arts graduate of Saint Xavier University completing my program in May 2016. Personally, speaking my admissions experience at Saint Xavier was awesome. I was out of school for many years prior to returning but the staff helped it become an easy transition. I was able to get what I needed accomplished by your skilled and professional staff. They gave me a good foundation and laid everything out that I needed in order to become a successful student. I would love to give that opportunity and same experience to all new students."

"Saint Xavier University is primarily focused on providing continuing education to Nurses at surrounding hospitals and the classroom discussion leans in that direction. It was sometimes difficult as a student employed in the private, for-profit, non-healthcare sector to explain the relevance of many of the profit related topics to nurses who were not accustomed to "dollars and cents" driving decisions."

"St. Xavier's MBA program is everything I could hope for. It is a small school so you get more attention and interaction in courses, while still being an accredited institution. The program gives many options for students to pick from for a concentration. There are options to do online or on campus courses, and there are two campuses to pick from depending where you live."

"Great online experience. Easy to use format. Plenty of resources available for help. Professors available through various ways (phone, email) and willing to help when needed. Altogether a great experience so far, was unsure of online platform but so far have been satisfied with the experience."

"Saint Xavier University is a great place to grow and learn. I completed my undergrad there in 2010 and knew I wanted to go back when working on my Masters. Faculty are very knowledgeable and honestly it feels like home. The counseling program prepares their students for real world events and you go into the field having the tools (you learned in class) and you know how to apply them. I highly recommend it!"

  • Degree: Business
"Saint Xavier has close ties with area hospitals and much of their MBA program is focused on providing direction to medical professionals looking to move into administrative positions with hospitals. While the instructors were generally good, I often encountered nurses taking business classes for the first time who came to the course with a hostile attitude toward the free market and business in general. It made some class discussions more difficult as the notion of profit was questioned when calculating for financial purposes."

"The website isn't necessarily user friendly and takes some getting used to, but the learning curve is not too steep. The courses offered as part of my degree program are exactly what I was looking for and gives students an alternative to the traditional MSN degree plans that are out there."

"Saint Xavier is a private school and the cost of tuition is roughly $855 per credit hour. The faculty is nice and very responsive to students. The pros of SXU are the number of classes offered each semester, most classes are evening classes and they are offered at a variety of locations.The teacher are very responsive and want to see the students succeed. The students at SXU are also very helpful one another. Very diverse group of students and teachers. The cons (I believe) of SXU, is that is really lacks the flow of a major university. There are small quirks like the time the campus shuts down that I believe are a major disadvantage. The coffee shop and cafeteria close well before night classes end. Most might not mind this but it makes last night study sessions harder. Overall, Graham School of Management at Saint Xavier University is excellent. The university a whole still can improve student life."
