I went to Canisius for a 4 year triple major and I really enjoyed it. The classes are small and the professors actually care. It has a great business program, but there are a lot of gen-ed prereqs that you need to take which is somewhat of a shame. Highly recommend getting involved with groups and clubs though. Networking is one of the best things you can do. You will have some professors taking attendance, and I know, sounds a bit weird for college (especially because you are the one paying), but it only furthers the fact that the professors care. All of the professors have their doctorates and many have real-world business experience which is a big plus. Since graduating, I still keep in-touch with a few professors.

Read moreI am currently enrolled in the Graduate Education program at Canisius, seeking a Masters in English Education as well as an advanced TESOL certificate. I am writing this review because these reviews weighed heavily when I was deciding which program to attend last year. The teachers I have had here are all touch notch.

Canisius is a college that cares about you as a person. They take into consideration your personal circumstances and really advocate for your success through how they put theory into practice. Not only are the teachers always available to help; but administration as well. I attended Boston College undergrad so I was also looking for the Jesuit spirit as well...I found it here. Hands down I would recommend this school. I am seeking dual certification - Ontario & NY - Canisius will help you with...
Read moreI am a Canisius graduate of 2013 and I do not regret going to this school. To get the most out of this school, you have to know certain people. These people are the professors, your classmates, and maybe the staff that make the food ;).
In all seriousness, the classes were small and the professors were willing to help. This college has resources at your disposal so do not be afraid to use them. Now, it is an expensive school so keep that in mind, but the programs are fantastic.
Just keep in mind that it is near the East Side and some neighborhoods are not so good. During the day you will be fine walking through them but at night I would keep an eye out and check your surroundings if you are walking around them. Other than...
