Great staff! Very welcoming. I found everything I needed for my newly accepted TWU daughter. They even had TWU merch for proud Moms and Dads to wear.

Horrible school. There are no parking spots, and no places nearby to park, so I always got ticketed for their lack of space. The faculty is not sympathetic for anything. A professor committed suicide in her office years ago and the school did not acknowledge it, and just brushed it aside, and their motto is "campus with a heart". They registered me for a dorm when I submitted a form that I was moving to an apartment, but they re-did it and I had to pay half of the cost of living in a dorm. They just take your money any chance that they can get. Their nursing program promises to provide tutoring, but did not give my dyslexic sister any of their time and effort. I dropped out because I was so miserable and dreaded going to school everyday. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. You will regret attending there :)

I had a horrible experience at this school, as did most of the students in my nursing program (we have all shared our issues with one another throughout the program). Several of the students transferred out of the program due to poor communication and disrespect from faculty, shared feelings of being scammed, and lack of organization (among other issues). I feel I have wasted my money and spent more time dealing with issues than learning. I would never recommend this school/nursing program to anyone inquiring.

Im a nurse practitioner student. I started in the hybrid program and have since move 2.5 hours (140 miles) away from the school. For two years I sent emails calls and messages to my advisor asking if I could be moved to the online program and never got a response. (its hard to even get someone on the phone) Finally, someone in denton told me that advisor no longer worked here. So, now Im coming up against a deadline to graduate and they still have not said if I can switch. If I dont, Ill have to take 260 clinical hours a semester in person in Dallas, when I live near Austin. Now Ive been trying to fix this for two years - Its ridiculous. I emailed my dean today and she would not give me any information. Im over halfway thru the program and no information. This school is unorganized and unprofessional. Also, the teachers will scold you for no reason which makes your life like hell and is very intense but unethical. They play favorites - so its like "the 1950s called and want their way of teaching back". Taylor Dukes who is in charge of vaccines and drug tests etc. is not able to give any clear instructions - her instructions are sooo disorganized you would have to talk with her in person just to figure it out. My hospital system requires much more from me for compliance but they get things done seamlessly. I got scolded in class today while lecturing on cultural conpetence when I mentioned that my filipino family/friends dont like to take a lot of medicine - but Dr Hannah just used it to say that I was "biased". You cant judge a book by its cover Dr Hannah and if you cannot carryout that lecture ethically and fairly then you shouldnt do so. I doubt youve ever even been to Asia before, I have, and it certainly beats being in your class. Id rather spend my money on that anyday.

Please Yelp, come out with a no-star feature. This school has far been the reason for my unstable mental health. This school is the most unrationalized school ever. They come up with the most dumbest excuses for you to wait more time and to fill more documents and requests just for you to wait on this school to process. I live 38 miles away from TWU, my prior school year here I had taken ALL online classes and I was clearly able to since I was at home. Now this year they're saying I live out of the radius and can't register for classes unless i move into the dorm or put in another request for exemption, (this is another request on top of the other). School is very pathetic, please do NOT waste your time going here because I swear they will not help you absolutely not, they try to juice every penny out of you. This school doesn't see their students as young adults trying to better their future, we're all customers to them, I understand college costs $$$ and takes time to enroll with documents and such, but TWU makes that process 1000000x more complicated which doesn't need to be. DO NOT go here just because you got accepted. TCC is closer and they offered me another 3K on top of my FASFA for "COVID Relief". TWU did not offer that type of money.

In person might be a different story, however, on the phone the customer service is not good. They are often rude and not very helpful.

Academics are good, however this semester the school is almost empty and the parking lots are empty. I attend a 2 hr class every other week and parked in an empty parking lot and still got a $40 dollar parking ticket. Way to encourage attendance TWU.

Giving it 4.5 stars. First off I didn't know you could review schools on Yelp, I was looking for a store near campus and stumbled upon this page. I attended TWU about 4 years ago and at first I hated it. I think I was just put in with the wrong crowd of people...like at any school a huge part of the experience is who you interact with and what experiences you get out of. Once I found a group of like minded people I enjoyed it. To be honest I was a little hesitant at first committing to attend school here because I knew no one. Most of the programs are fantastic! They really are there for you every step of the way. I've only had a few negative experiences: housing- I had 4 roommates in one day before school started one year and the person in charge was not the best at their job or communication. Then when I finally ended my housing contract (TWU Select--they no longer have these apartments or work with Scott brown anymore) they didn't go through the apartment until March and I had moved out in December and already received my deposit back. I got a cleaning charge for dust. I fought that charge and won as I researched contract law and leasing agreements and started speaking in legal jargon (not a lawyer and majored the polar opposite of political science). I'm not sure if they were mad that I found a loophole in the contract that let me move out a semester early without fees due to a departmental required internship because the next year that one line got changed which I find funny. The only other negative experience was the underground food quality and sanitation, but that had since been alleviated with the new student union in Hubbard hall and different company in charge of dining. (Kids these days have it lucky). It's kind of hard on the weekends being a residential student because of the high commuter student population that it sometimes felt a little dead on the weekends especially with less of a sports following like other colleges. Other than that TWU is financially a good choice especially if a bachelor's degree is not going to be your terminal degree. I was given a lot of scholarship $. The quality of education I believe is equivalent to other 4 year universities. I also feel that the smaller class sizes are a plus. Ignore some of the other reviews that are negative, they probably encountered someone on an off day. As for the cost of parking it's very affordable especially compared to other universities where it could be hundreds a semester and the transcripts and having to pay for them. Every single college does this, it's nothing new! I really like their connections with local community colleges where I had no problem transferring summer school credit back to apply towards my degree. As for the women's studies review. The curriculum has changed slightly and there are many many classes that qualify for that requirement...for example women in music. The gender and social change class quite honestly is just a sociology class targeted at all aspects of gender. This class is important because of TWU's history (And it's just ONE class). TWU has expanded so much since I left and the chancellor is doing a great job bring TWU into the spot light. This is just my take...take everything with a grain of salt. I am very appreciative of my time at TWU and my degree and with any college you get out what you put in. Proud to be a pioneer and going to a school I like to call the best kept secret in north Texas (seriously the campus is so pretty).

I am in the DPT program here, and I love it. Everything is so clean. Classes are challenging but interesting. You can tell the staff really cares about the students and try their best to make students succeed.
