This is the worse decision I've made, mostNot so brightNursing
This is the worse decision I've made, most people here cheat and teacher are quite horrible. No wonder the school ranks so low. Dorms can be nice, but food is quite horrible. Social life suck unless you are in a frat/sorority, where most girls act like whores and guys like condescending and privileged assholes. Academics are full of cheaters, and is challenging but in a way where teachers will not really try to help you.Low quality education. This is a great school if you want to re-do your high school social life, or if you want to spend a bunch of money on low quality "private" education.

Question
Eh, It was just ok.Quite BrightBusiness - Management and Administration
Eh, It was just ok. Met great friends, and mentors. But lacked the social atmosphere I had wanted in a college. If you like the small campus feel, its great, but I would have wanted a larger University. Lacked the school spirit and pride most schools have. No meaningful, fun, worthwhile events on campus. Overall ok, If you get a scholarship.

Question
I switched my major from undecided to biologyBrightBiology
I switched my major from undecided to biology my second semester, and the fact that they don't have all of the classes offered every semester really screws me over as far as trying to graduate on time with the rest of my class. The majority of my classes were easier than classes I've taken in high school. 54k is too much to pay for Pace. It is literally high school all over again. Once you have a group of friends, the chances of making new ones are slim to none. There are only about 1,500 kids that live on campus, so if you like seeing the same people over and over again, come here. Like any other school, I've had good professors, but the majority of them were either so easy or just didn't know how to teach. Many people go home on the weekends, so there really isn't a great social life here. The only reason I stay at school is because of the friends I've made.
