Like where CIU is going. The new business programs should be awesome. I feel safe here and the campus is cozy and the professors are caring and helpful.
Bad reviews
Overall 1.1
don't go if you want to be happy. you get treated like a middle schooler and way to strict to be a college student. don't waste your time or money going here
Overall 2
Extremely subjective grading and great difficulty in dealing with various issues. I noted that their graduates also make well under the national average after graduation. Apparently, good paying companies don't want to hire their graduates. They have many poor reviews. I would avoid this university at all cost if you want to be taken seriously.

Great school, but only if it's a good fit for you. If you aren't there to study the Bible or aren't in to constant community activities, being smothered by people wanting to get coffee with you every day, or being treated like you're a 5 year old by your RA, then it will be four years of torture. Rules are awful and no one is treated like adults
