Saint mary-of-the-woods college Review

Absolutely loved SMWC! I highly recommend sending your child to this historic catholic institution of higher learning.

Saint Mary of the Woods College is a really good college. I have been attending this school for a couple years now through their online program. I feel that there is a lack of a connection between the students who attend school online and those that attend on campus. The online students, like myself, are not always included with the activities and events held on campus. There is very little communication from the school, advisors, and staff to the online students. I felt, at times, that I never knew what I needed to do next or what courses to change. It was as if I was doing things on my own and only received direction when paperwork needed to be done. I understand that we are adults and we can handle ourselves, but it would be nice to have some guidance and some sort of feedback. It may be different for other students but these were things I experienced.

You won't find a safer, more challenging and loving place to pursue your dreams. This college gets it. They know how girls find their voice. After all, they've been at for over 175 years. The motto says it all: virtue and knowledge united. I graduated in 1978 and my only daughter is considering attending.

Not great. Perhaps this is because the Woods Online program hasn't figured out how to properly implement distance learning. Maybe on campus programs are better. I felt like I was given As too easily from most instructors, and they were not even really interested in teaching. I felt like I was 100% on my own reading the text and doing the coursework only to have an unknown entity grade it and return it (and sometimes it took weeks to get feedback on an assignment you need in order to fully move to the next). Only when I had classes with the department head and one other instructor did I feel like I was getting genuine feedback. Poor communication in general. I don't know if I would pursue my education here if I could go back in time. I don't necessarily regret it, but hindsight is 20/20.

Excellent experience moving my granddaughter in. Everyone very helpful and friendly.

Very nice campus. They host a lot of wedding receptions and other events. Nice facilities good catering.

Not the school I would pick but my daughter loves that school
