If you want a personalized education with the opportunity to know your professors and get a head start on your career, University of Redlands is hard to beat.
Too many people are intimidated by the price tag of a Redlands, but the reality is this school gives a LOT of grants and scholarship money (and no, you don't have to be a 4.0 student out of high school), and they'll get you out in four years. Compare that to a state school where you can languish for five or six years trying to get into the classes you need for your major, where you won't get any grants or scholarships, and you've just paid as much or more than you would for a far better education at Redlands.
The school is now embarking on updating the old dorms, building a new gym and continuing to grow and improve the facilities. I have had one child graduate from Redlands (and had a job waiting for her), and another one will graduate in 2018. Both have had extraordinary experiences at Redlands that they may not have had at a larger school where they'd be small fish in a big pond. They are #9 and #10 in our family to graduate from University of Redlands, and we wouldn't keep going if we didn't believe the school provided a...
Read moreThe school is an excellent school. I attended the school of continuing study's for a certificate in human resources managment. The classrooms are small and only have 10 people at most in the classes. This program was nice only 1 night a week. It fit into my personal life well. Each class was 8 to 12 weeks at a time.

The office staff let us come down and get free coffee and asked us how we were doing. The dean of the school came in our class rooms once the course was almost done and asked us how things were. We were also able to survey the instructors after the course and give them honest feedback on their classes. The teachers and school focused on making sure we all passed the classes. They showed us what we need to do to get good grades. I highly recommend...
Read moreThis school is really terrible. Don't take my word for it, just go see for yourself. Academics are horrible, no resources for students; if you actually plan on graduating with your sanity you should really consider some place else. This "university" is in a really bad location in southern California with a lot of sexual violence associated with the area and the university. The fraternities and sorrorities and all of the organizations on campus are disorganized and pathetic, and often do more harm than good.
They university really tries to seem really nice and good people, but do not be fooled by this facade. It's how they sell. Truly no one wants to help you or see you succeed. I hope this helped. If you want a positive college experience don't go here.
Also, if you plan on living on campus, don't. The dorms are...
