Pittsburg State University Reviews
Most Recent Reviews
The school was great to work with from application to graduation. They communicated quickly and was responsive to any needs that I had. Using Canvas was a good platform and was easy to navigate. My one suggestion for improvement is the graduation ceremony. It's pretty much a walkthrough with where you lineup elsewhere, walk the stage, and go out another door. That's it. I recommend more of a ceremony.
Do not recommend going into Early Childhood Education, the pre-k practicum is a joke and you will not learn much. I would stick to elementary education at Pitt or find a different school for early childhood programs. You will have better luck learning on Pinterest and in a real classroom
