The university is in a very quiet city and there isn’t much room for social life on campus so all the fun is off campus in nearby cities. The staff is okay but I felt some prejudice and bias but I won’t get into that too much.
The schools financial aid office are the worlds biggest scammers. They wait till it’s too late to do anything to notify you and when u are notify of a problem they don’t tell you what it is they just tell you to figure it out. After spending weeks talking to the financial aid office, fafsa, and my scholarship people I learned it was a small filing mistake made by the financial aid office that cost me almost $10k to get my grades for my first year. Then the office tried to blame me for the mistake when they messed up and they could’ve just easily asked me to resubmit the papers that they messed up and it wouldn’t take me weeks to find out what happen.
The professors are the same that teach at NOVA community college so I recommend you go to NOVA for the 2 years and take classes there it’ll save you so much money and time compared to dealing with the stuff I dealt with at Mason.
