Rockhurst University provided a wonderful liberal arts degree program that allowed for flexibility of coursework and excellent student to instructor ratios. At the time, their ability to accept transfer credit greatly influenced my decision to attend. The admission's staff were able to answer all my questions. Available scholarships and work study positions were added bonuses. The reputation of the university in the Kansas City area still holds true.
Great program. Professors were great. It was rigorous and relevant to what I would be doing as a teacher. Instead of being fed a bunch of useless information, I was able to actually apply what I learned. Would highly recommend this program, especially if you can handle a fast pace.
