Rating 1 out of 5

This school, specifically the Dover campus, has dropped into the toilet over the last 10 years. I completed a Masters in Secondary Ed in 2008 and had a great experience. I went back for a degree in clinical mental health counseling in 2020 and the experience was 100% different. The university has completely bought into the diversity equity and inclusion stuff so If you're a straight white male be prepared for the indoctrination of your life. Be prepared to be called "the problem with our society". Be prepared to have your grades changed days after being graded by a TA so that you go from an A in the class to a C. In the end, after 2.5 years and a near perfect GPA I was told I couldn't move on to clinical because they didn't think I could "work with people of color." All because I didn't agree with their critical race theory nonsense. Biggest waste of time and money I've ever spent!
