"It is very accessible and the professors are very easy to communicate with. The tuition is pretty high, but seems to be worth it to me."

"There are not really any cons I can think of from my graduate program. So far they have been extremely well-mannered and seem eager to help. The faculty and staff are extremely knowledgeable and always willing to lend a helping hand or just talk for a short while. The networking opportunities are great as long as you are determined and willing to put in some time and effort."

"Adler is a great school in a great location. The classes are informative and engaging, as are the faculty members who teach them. Administratively, the school is still experiencing some growing pains and may seem a little disorganized at times. This does not detract at all from the quality of my education."

"It is a doctoral program so I expect it to be challenging, however I would have hoped to have more assistance with financial situations such as help in looking for scholarships, which I have received none of thus so far."

"I have been accepted into the program, and have yet to begin classes. Thus far the only con is the cost, which is why I have been applying for scholarships to help fund my education."

"Pros: The program is professional and provides a great deal of diversity in staff and students. There are plenty of activities and groups to participate in. The quality of education is excellent. Cons: The cons are probably the same for any Psy.D. program at the moment. There are more students then there are practicum and internship sites available. The training department at Adler does work hard to help students get placements."

"The art therapy program I am in is high quality. Professors are willing to help with student needs are a great resource for beginning to network. Adler offers many professional organizations that will look good on a resume. In each program, each student is required to do a community practicum in addition to their clinical practicum, so students gain plenty of experience working with various populations and in their field. The one downside to the school is the price. Although graduate schools overall are expensive, Adler does not offer much in the way of scholarships. Further, I wish the school had more organizations or activities that were just for fun than focused on being a professional."

"The school is very supportive of each students' endeavors to fulfill the requirements for their degree. The only issue I do have with the location is it is in the center of downtown Chicago. Luckily Chicago does have one of the best public transportation systems so I have no issues getting to and from school. However, when the winter months do arrive, I am aware that there can be some delays."
