"I think Marymount has one of the best graduate HR programs available. I have really benefitted and grown during my time there, with a faculty that is extremely supportive of your academic goals, and what I have learned during class has been beyond valuable."

"This program prepared me for working out in the field with clients and feeling confident. My professors have been supportive and great leaders in the field. Though the program would benefit from more diversity in the elective courses to be more well rounded."

"During my time there, I felt that the strongest portion of the curriculum were the professors, although I would have liked more skills in regards to orthopedics. All the professors were quite helpful and knowledgeable. However, since graduating and hearing about other therapists schools, I find that the set-up of the curriculum and how the classes were taught seem to be more congruent with each other and the teaching style was more than just power-point lectures, which would have been more helpful for learning wise."

"The staff and faculty are very helpful and knowledgeable. The costs are a bit expensive and "blue building" is out dated."

"The program has a great network with professionals in the community that serve as excellent guest speakers in class and points of contact for further career questions. Financial aid options are limited to loans only, and the program's internship requirement makes it difficult to maintain a full-time job."

"The pros are they have evening classes to accommodate those with full-time jobs. The class sizes are small. There are internship and study abroad opportunities. As for cons, living in the Arlington/DC area is very expensive."

"My first year here at Marymount has been an amazing one. I feel as though I've been able to delve deeply in a variety of different aspects that compose forensic psychology. The location for the study of this program is ideal. Being just 10 minutes outside of Washington DC makes internship and work opportunities readily available for us. The professors expect top quality work and they also push us to do the best work as possible. I truly believe that they do have our best interest at heart, and they want us to learn the most we can while we are here in the program. I feel as though the cost of housing is a bit steep, but it's understandable considering the relative cost of living around the Arlington area. I believe that this course could have a thesis option in its degree plan for those who are interested in going on to get their PhD. I also think that the emphasis on research is too great. Most of us are not looking to go on and become doctors, but most of us do want to find work where legal writing is involved and thus far there has be no emphasis on legal writing. A lesser emphasis on research and more of an emphasis on legal writing could prove to be beneficial later on in our careers."

"I feel that graduateprograms.com is a great resource in providing information about what each school has to offer. It gives you an overview of what graduate students think about the schools and programs and overall university experience. When searching for a graduate school, it is important to have complete details and feedbacks from other students as to where you will invest in your education."
