South University, West Palm Beach — Attraction in Royal Palm Beach

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS UNIVERSITY!!!! Positive reviews come from admissions counselors at SOUTH UNIVERSITY. BEWARE!!!!! I had a really bad experience at South University and yes I would agree with the statements about them being all about the money. I was told my transfer credits were approved, BUT once I was enrolled—signed all documents—then they told me that I had to retake more classes $$$ (again, after being “approved”). Tuition is ridiculous, I was charged well over $4,000 for 2 classes. Now they won’t even release my transcripts until I pay off this amount. BE CAREFUL!!!!

I feel that some people on this forum were not doing what they needed to do to be successful and they should own up to it, not...

The level of unprofessionalism I encountered at South University, where many of my friends received their BSN, left me appalled. Upon contacting the school, the receptionist connected me with Marie Forges, whom I anticipated to be an academic advisor. Upon disclosing my existing bachelor's degree in another field, and contemplation of nursing as a second career, she asked me if I ever attended college and what's my current situation. Are you serious? That means she never listened to me in the first place, when she realized her mistake, she said that she would call me at 3:00 PM. Around 3:33 PM, I called the school, they said she would reach out me in a few minutes and it never happened. Wow! South University, shame on you! My first experience with the school is very...
