I transferred from another larger university to Spalding. The experience and atmosphere was a complete 180 from my initial college experience. I went from being treated like a number to a feeling like all the faculty was fully vested in helping me graduate … The Faculty advisors make all the difference in the world! The program is intimate with faculty willing to meet and help with any open questions in class or outside of it during office hours. As I got closer and closer to graduation the curriculum and faculty became more and more focused on skills that have direct application in the workplace. I was well prepared for the public speaking, presentation and business communication that’s required day one in the workplace.”
