Judson University

I love this University, I have meet so many amazing people on this campus that all make you feel so welcome. the Professors are incredible and are always happy to help no matter what the problem is. All in all this University is really special and I love spending my time on campus.

When I first arrived at Judson, I was excited to meet new people and be myself for once without fitting in. I was in loved with the university, but as the months go by, the classes started to become harder because half of the professors didn't know how to teach. Next semester, Judson was struggling financially so bad that majority of the students, (including me) were being charged money on to our accounts. Last but not least, the food there was terrible. There was bugs, little pieces of hair, and sometimes mold on the fruit. I would not choose Judson as a school to attend.

I loved the experience. It was a small school so you got to know other students, the professors, and workers rather well. I learned a lot, and there were also a lot of opportunities for extracurricular activities. The Student Organization was great at organizing events and giving free food as well ;) If I were to go back in time with the knowledge I have now I would definitely choose to go there again.

Judson University is a fun place to and the environment great. Most the people on campus are extremely friendly as well as the professors and other staff. I plan on running track there and i know that attending the university will be a great asset to my career and life as an individual, and as an athlete.

It is a great school if you are looking for a private, christian school. They offer a variety of opportunities to grow as a person and in your faith. It is mostly a commuter school, and about 60% of the campus is an athlete. The staff and students are friendly, and it is a safe environment.

I love the small community feeling of Judson.

Judson University is a diverse school looking to share love and compassion with everyone that goes there. It has great programs from architecture to science to education. At Judson the professors care about their students and want them to succeed, and I know that I am getting the education that i'm paying for. The athletic department is great with a bunch of very talented athletes as well as Christian coaches who are compassionate and fired up to make you a better athlete.

Very disappointed with this school and honestly regretting that I came here. Don't attend Judson if you are hoping for a really substantial Christian atmosphere, because their theology is not substantive, their chapels only serve as "feel good" sessions or social justice meetings, and the professors barely include any discussion about faith in their classes. The Biblical studies classes are a huge disappointment, because we don't really examine God's word, and they treat it as a piece of historical literature. We even had to read some completely heretical documents for my OT class. The school doesn't believe the Bible is inerrant, and students aren't required to sign a statement of faith to come here, so the Christian aspect is diluted. Go elsewhere if you are looking for a strong conservative Christian base.

Judson is an incredible community. My friends are like my brothers and sisters who have helped me develop and grow in my faith. There may not be much organized activity on the weekends, but the relationships I've built are worth the trade. We are able to exist in our own essence and pursue our wants with each other, whether it be a trip into Chicago or a weekend in the piano rooms.

I love Judson! The greatest part of Judson University is the community! I am a very shy person, and I do not warm up to people very easily. However, from Move-in day, I was shown love and appreciation from almost everyone, including students, staff, and faculty! Many people say that college professors do not really care about the individual success of their students, but, at Judson, every professor cares! Some of their classes may be excruciatingly difficult, but they will still give you the assistance you need! Personally, I was going through many changes during my first year of college. I entered Judson University as an Architecture major. However, realizing that I am better fit toward social work and psychology, I decided to change my major to Child and Family Psychology. It would not have been as easy as it was if the staff had not cared as much. The food is pretty good, it just can get repetitive. There is a renovation of the cafeteria this summer, so maybe the food choices will improve, as well. Anyway, I would recommend Judson University to anyone who wants to be a part of a tremendous community! During these years of change, I would not picture myself anywhere else!
