Bachelor of Arts in Biology

The one thing I liked best about Abilene Christian University was the professors were always there to help you if you needed any help. The professors were always making sure you understood what they were teaching you before moving on to another subject.
The only thing I didn't like about Abilene Christian University was everyone, no matter what degree they were going to college for, had to take a Bible course because it was required. The Biology courses I took did help me in my future career, especially the ones that pertained to animals and nature.
BA in Art

Abilene Christian University was an amazing experience for me. The instructors are excellent, the art program is fantastic, and the campus is exciting. I can't say anything negative about this school. I was more than prepared for graduate school.
Overall: great school!

Great university for teaching and preparing students for the world outside of the ACU bubble. Innovative and cutting edge. ACU faculty are extremely accessible and helpful, something not to be found at a state school. The education was great and prepares students for graduate school. A bit expensive.
The only downside was the focus on "social clubs". These clubs were similar to frats/sororities only much more obnoxious and celebrated. ACU could really do its social image a favor by ignoring these clubs. The clubs however, perform in the spring Sing Song event bringing lots of money to the school. Therefore, ACU will continue to promote social clubs because they bring money into the university.
Overall: great school!
I chose ACU

I could have gone anywhere, and I'm glad I chose ACU. I have never received negative comments about attending ACU. Places where I have interviewed have treated ACU with respect.
ACU has played a huge part in my life. I had great friends who were a good influence. Most of my professors were a good value. I benefited from the emphasis on the spiritual. I was able to find a job quickly after graduation and was well prepared for public accounting. My understanding of the Church was expanded.
Jump into ACU. Meet as many people as you can. Get out of your confort circle and meet people who are different. Be involved in a local congregation. Go on a mission trip. Learn. Take advantage of every opportunity. When it's over...it's over...so soak up all of it you can...and you will carry it with you for life.

Master of Education (MEd) Online Program

Challanging! If anyone thinks an online degree is something you can skate through, do not attend Abilene Christian! You are challanged from day one by prefessional instructors that look for constant feedback. This is accomplished via online chats, virtual classroom, email and even conference calls if you have internet phone. Students had a virtual "union" and could post on message boards to discuss various topics. My path to get beyond the classroom has taken a major step forward. I enjoy the coinfidence my education has provided.
