Once famous for it's law school, got rid of it, now just an overpriced school that has no prestige. Go to ivy tech instead.
Great school good students high class
Outstanding university from which I have two degrees.

I did the RN-BSN program as a transfer from CA community college. Highly recommend for the speed of the program.

I am now licensed as a RN in California.

I had a great time here- 20+ years ago! Looks like times have really changed and the school has an identity crisis now. I made a lot of friends, went to a lot of parties and had a lot of great classes. I still believe in a liberal arts college for the best foundation in life. But Valpo has thrown out a lot of what it was in favor of change that makes no sense. They don't realize that trying to please everyone is a losing proposition. I don't think I would go there now. It's all really too bad

School is simply not worth the money. Especially now. There are an extensive number of ultra-liberal professors who do not allow opposing views.

Instead of working one another, the departments compete with one another to the detriment of the students.

I'd especially avoid the education department as you can get far better preparation for nearly free, yet they want to charge tens of thousands of dollars for a worse education.

Valparaiso University is a great university that is getting even stronger under the current leadership of Dr. Heckler. Academics are very strong and one can get a well rounded education. You can get a respected degree enabling you to pursue a rewarding career or advanced study. Furthermore you can participate in a full range of collegiate experiences outside of the classroom. Let's face it, you can be a big fish in a small pond. This university allows and encourages one to try new things, study with students from diverse backgrounds and participate in activities outside one's comfort zone. I found my Valpo experience very rewarding and it greatly influenced me in a positive way for life.
