CIU is a no good school. You can not trust the Chaplins for anything. I would NEVER think of attending CIU again. If i know how crappy some of the staff was I would not have worked so hard to get in, They lied to me and slandered my name and they lied and stole money from my friend. If i could give ...
I loved and greatly benefited from my experience at CIU. I know personally that I grew leaps and bounds in my four years there. Educationally the classes helped me form a solid biblical foundation from which I now teach the girls I disciple. Spiritually so many of the faculty and staff loved and inv...
As a transfer student this school will stick you with a bill if you tell them you ve already taken that class I ve got a hold on my account. Supposed to be a faith based organization sticking a disabled student with a $4000 bill shame on you especially during a pandemic
CIU is not a perfect place but it is a good good place. It is a place to grow in your walk with the Lord and to grow in biblical community, striving alongside brothers and sisters in Christ.
CIU has a longstanding history of covering up the truth, getting rid of "inconvenient" people, and making absurd decisions regarding the future of the school. I do not recommend this school to anyone. I loved some of the staff/professors there, but most of them are gone and the school has slid even ...
As with any university or college - several exemplary professors can make the institution a joy to be at. Kudos and props go out to Old-Shine, Grant and Dr. Sam (the reasons why I rate 4 stars instead of three).
With that said, most often it's the other majority of professors which make one quest...
I love this place. The small campus makes dining, residence halls, and classes all easily accessible from one another. CIU also has an 'overlook' of sorts that is over the athletic fields which is really beautiful at sunset. This is a great college for anyone looking for a small college with grea...
CIU was a great experience! My four years there educated me from a biblical worldview, provided me a strong foundation of faith, and left me with lasting friendships.
You can find a handful of good professors here, for who's mentorship I have been grateful. But the school has had major financial issues, which they've attempted to fix by hiking tuition, and expanding their sports program, getting rid of their best professors. Their recent hires for administration ...
CIU is a wonderful place to grow in Christ and to prepare for your future. Scripture is integrated in to every class and the staff and faculty are incredible role models and friends. Living on campus is a blast and there are so many great opportunities for friendship and leadership.
Class of '94 and '01. Sure it was expensive, but the education was excellent for the most part. The faculty and staff showed me grace in many areas especially in my lack of academic preparation. There were quite a few faculty and staff who really showed interest in me because they knew what it me...
A great institute of higher learning, I have enjoyed the staff immensely and admire the attempt to follow scripture, dress code for women needs improvement. Holiness is holiness period.
I have so many complaints against CIU, but I will keep this review centered on the ways in which they fail to be successful at even being a University.
For years now, CIU has been in dire financial trouble. Their response has, consistently, been clandestine firings of staff, cutting staff salarie...
Their failure to respond adequately to scandals or sincerely apologize for wrongdoing is the primary reason for the low review. However, CIU also has a long history of lack of transparency, financial problems, and poor leadership.
Class of 1978 - Still struggle with the guilt and shame that was inflicted upon me from this school. Years of therapy! The University, College at the time I attended, was a secluded bubble that did not prepare you for the real world out there. I have found a more fulfilling way of life that is not f...
I spent from spring 1988 to summer 1993 in the college and graduate school at CIU and loved it. The professors bent over backwards to assist students. The coursework was rigorous and life changing, and it has provided me with the training to be supportive in my local church as well as teach Englis...
The best 2-1/2 years of my life! Attended the grad school '80-'82. Between the teachings of Buck Hatch, Larry Crabb and the fabulous students, it was a small taste of heaven. I felt like God was smiling down on the place and almost tangible. I've never felt so loved by God in my life! I loved the em...
