Parker University, like many educational institutions, has navigated through the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. While the university is commendable in its efforts, it is evident that improvements could enhance the overall learning experience post-COVID. One aspect deserving attention is the transition to online learning. The abrupt shift to remote education during the pandemic was challenging for both students and faculty. The university's response may have been adequate given the circumstances, but a comprehensive post-COVID plan for blended or online learning could be devised. This entails investing in upgraded technology, robust training for educators, and fostering an interactive online community.

This is a great school for learning chiropractic. The staff are friendly and there are always fun things going on at the campus. I am very grateful this school is close to where I am. There are many studies that move across the country for this education.

Rachel - 09/11/2019

The campus is small and parking can be annoying for the growing class sizes. But its the people that make the school amazing. Upper and lower trimester students are always willing to help with classes and materials. You're not alone, the entire school supports you and will be there for you and your challenges.

Ashley - 08/28/2019

I love Parker. This school has pushed me to become someone that thinks outside the box. It is a very challenging program, however, there is always room for growth and the professors are there to help you become the best future doctor that you can be.
