Point Park University Top Questions

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?

Maggie

I don't like to brag. Point Park University is the right place for me to be 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c}. However, it is not the school for everyone. Some people like big campuses. I would rather have small class sizes where I can stand out and be noticed.

Point Park allowed me to get my MBA on the weekend and still be able to work full-time so I did not have to be a full-time student. It a great program for the working adult who wants to go back to school and still be able to take classes that fits their work and personal life.

Ryan

The thing I brag about the most when I talk to my friends about Point Park University is that it is surrounded by the city. You can go almost anywhere you want to go and you don't need a car. It's exciting, it's fast pace and it makes you feel so alive.

Jessica

I am very excited about going and had to put it off twice due to funding my Mom is sometimes too sick to help me fill out application to try and get help for school. a few of my friends attend this school and they love it I want to be in television and this is my dream I can get to the school by public transportation. I hope i can figure out a way to attend I may need to take all loans which will add up to about 50,000 for four years.

The best part of going to Point Park is that it is located in downtown Pittsburgh. Within a small walk from campus you can attend a Pirate baseball game, a Steeler football game or a Penguin Hockey game. Also, close by are some great little shops, the southside shopping district, and some great restaurants. But the best part of going to Point Park is that fact that the class size is usually under 15 per class and all of my teachers know me by my first name and not by my social security number.

It is small enough that you get to know a lot of people, and it doesn't matter what grade you are in because you are all treated equal. Also if you can't seem to get a hold of the person required for an answer any staff member is willing to help to get you the information you need.

That Point Park has more alumni on Boradway than any other school!

Our Dance Conservatory gives students a lot of chance to perform and choreograph, which is just as essential as taking technique classes. Our faculty is also very experienced and there are lots of different types of dance classes to take. I feel as if our dancers come out more well-rounded then everyone else.
