"Loving my classes so far, only complaint is the cost, but it is comparable to other universities in the area. Overall best education for your money!"

"Overall, the program that I am enrolled in is a great one. The only issue that I sometimes have with KU is the availability of resources. They offer numerous resources but access to them can sometimes be limited. However, this may be a result of the large student population rather than the individual faculty and educator's intentions. Additionally, I feel some of the professors get overwhelmed by the emphasis on research. As the school of mass communications is a professional school, there should be a bit more hands on work with all of the students. However, the school does work to ensure that students are aware of campus opportunities, internships and possible careers after graduation."

"Excellent quality faculty in the Geography Department - national (and even international) reputations, yet very approachable and student-focused. Would like to see the university expand/enhance its support for the Geography Department, and it would be nice if the program could increase its number of graduate students."

  • Degree: Business
"Professors are not concerned with grades and are not out to fail students, but are more concerned with teaching and developing students according to their strengths and assessing needs. Admin staff are knowledgeable and put student's career goals first to ensure that the program develops the most capable, talented students. It is a big name school, with personalization that any person that is looking to bring out their best should seriously consider. Cons? I have yet to develop any serious con that doesn't positively influence the business school."

"KU provides a variety of helpful services as well as an environment for students to be successful. The professors and administrators are very accessible and helpful with any and all questions a student may have. The coursework is challenging and interesting, and the professors do nothing but provide support as graduate students pursue their interests."

"A great university if you like the "big school" feel. Lots going on. If wanting a more one on one experience (even in graduate school) this may not be a good fit. A great name that has a lot of credibility."
