Lesley had some great professors and because it's not a massive school, you get a lot of time and care from them. That being said, the school had MAJOR safety issues with dorms, transportation, accessibility, and safe meals. Also, administration is an absolute nightmare sometimes and they don't have enough staff. Requirements are not communicated and students should expect to do a lot of their course/experience planning solo. Complaints were not taken seriously or acted on. And have you seen that "mac and cheese" college food meme? It was Lesley's white hall. It hasn't really improved.
