California State University-Los Angeles Reviews of Master's in Health Sciences

"California State University, Los Angeles was an excellent program for pursuing my Master's Degree in Audiology. Currently, they are in the process of starting a doctoral program in Audiology, which should be an excellent, in-state option to consider."

"It is a great program! You have to create a program plan as part of the application process so I felt that it was definitely organized and mapped out your classes. The professors are also amazing and knowledgeable."

"The main pro of my Cal State Los Angeles graduate program is that it does accommodate the working student by placing the core classes on one day of the week. The main con is that my classmates and I have found that it has unfortunately turned out to be a self-teaching program. We attend 5 hour long lectures and then go home to teach it to ourselves with little support and instruction from our professors."

"Cons: The program has many students that make it hard for people to get classes they need in order to graduate on time. Before being able to get into the internship must complete a few course which makes it hard to graduate on time. Pros: Supportive administration always available to help the student with advisement or anything the student might need help with. The best part of the BSW program is that we need a year of internship which is great you get to practice everything you know and learn in your Social Work classes. Basically it helps you build your network and it is an opportunity to get hired somewhere after graduation."

"UCLA presents a great learning environment enriched by a diverse faculty and student body."

"Pros: Since it's a state school, the tuition is relatively inexpensive. Cons: You get what you pay for. Not the best instruction. I feel there is a lot to be desired in that area, and sometimes feel as if I will not be adequately educated by the time I'm in the workforce. The administration is a mess. A lot of times it feels as if I'm stuck with taking care of administrative things, which only adds to my already high workload of trying to balance work and school. The down-low: If you're considering getting your master's in nursing (or doctorate's for that matter) at CSULA, look elsewhere. Really do your research and talk to current students at other schools to get a feel for how it may be like. If you do end up at CSULA, be prepared for a lot of frustration."
