Greedy, deceiving, not student-focus

It's sad that this is institution allows their admission officer to lie and misinform potential students during enrollment to get working adults to enroll into full-time studies instead of part-time so they could make more profit. I enrolled into one term of online program as a working adult. Some instructors (not all) weren't supportive and were quite rude - at time quite unprofessional and disrespectful. The school's portal wasn't user-friendly. Overall, the institution and instructors were below par, quite unorganized and there was nothing to shout about. The high tuition fees definitely did not justify what you get.

4 Years of Studies in MCU

I didn't like going to Maranatha at first because of the stigma between public and private university. But as time goes on, in the end i love this university because the psychology studies is not only with theories, but practical skill too. Students are allowed to explore more and learn about observation, interview, training, and even testing psychological tests. The campus is not too big, but enough to do everything. I got a lot of organization experiences and got a chance to become an intern in MCU.
