Yves
My school was founded on creating a space for adult learners, especially veterans. The experience is overall positive. The school is constantly making strides to doing things better and improving the educational experience for their students.
Evangeline
I am an online student. Since I have been attending they have been there for me. The faculty is available to answer my questions. The instructors are professional and fair. They are very organized and thorough. I have loved the environment and the family feel. It challenges my mind and opens my eyes to the possibilities. My studies are very interesting and challenging and I look forward to each assignment.
Jasmine
Best Decision I Ever Made, From the professors to your advisor everyone is very helpful in making sure your questions or concerns are answered an taken care of. Other students & on campus are very friendly, outgoing tend to be helpful when were doing our open discussion boards weekly , gives us great feedback and or helpful tips.
Joshua
I would recommend this school to my friends and family. This school has a very adjusted curriculum for students and the professors are very helpful, when asked specific questions. The one thing that does bug me though is that the admissions office take a bit too long to sort out financial aid for students.
Emmaline
I'm doing all of my classes online, so don't know what the campus is like, but my online experience has been great. All of my professors have been very helpful and encouraging. The other students overall have been wonderful to interact with, in discussion boards. I'm really enjoying my college experience at Bellevue and would definitely recommend it especially for someone looking for an excellent online school.
Magara
I have been so welcomed at Bellevue University. I started by just requesting information about a degree and with just a few back and forth emails I was convinced this was the school for me. My boyfriend is in the Navy, so I chose the online degree option since I plan on marrying him and moving with him but still completing my own life goals. This school has been so easy for our situation. I haven’t stressed out any and I’m still getting an incredible education.
Drake
I do like going there and for the most parts have got to know my professor’s. However it is a VERY small University and the community college that I coach football with seems more developed and has a bigger campus than Bellevue.
Matthew
Bellevue University is a great school! It is expensive, but I would definitely recommend it to someone who wants to get their bachelor's degree! The class sizes are smaller that UNO, and most degree programs you can take online! I am going for my bachelor's in Cybersecurity, and unfortunately, that degree is entirely online. The only thing that I dislike about Bellevue so far is that in an effort to promote their online classes, some degree programs aren't even offered in person, which makes meeting new people and building connections more difficult.
ABDURRASHID
One of the best universities is Bellevue university. It is a very nice school. It is so convince. And, everyone is very friendly. The textbooks are suitable to each class. I can use the text books over and over again. It is an unique university and suits everyone's needs.

Karin
I have never felt so welcomed or supported - even though all my classes were online there was always someone there to answer questions, guide me to the right area and encourage me to move onto a Master's.
The faculty were amazing and gave each student more than excepted time and assistance to ensure they could not only pass but surpass the normal.
kelly
Bellevue University offers an affordable online program that accommodates working students and those who are remote.
Joel
It is a very clean and accessible campus. It has all the amenities you could need and the classes are engaging. The teachers are always ready to help you out and the student advisors are amazing at helping to track your studies.

What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
For me, making the transition to college was a hard decision. I decided not to go to college right out of high school because I was pursuing my career at a bank and was moving up the ranks fast. If I could go back in time and give myself advice the number one piece of advice that I would give myself is not to wait! It's important to continue your education and the longer you wait the harder it gets to go back. Going to school full time and working full time is not an easy task, it takes dedication and hard work. Now that I am getting close to finishing I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and know that it was worth going back. Had I started right out of high school I feel that it would have been easier and I have been done with school years ago. I would tell myself to keep going to school and not take any breaks, going right out of high school will prevent unnecessary pre-requisite courses and will eliminate the need to 'refresh your memory' on the courses that you took in high school.
What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?
I wish I would have known how great of a school it really was. I went to community college right out of high school and then transferred to another local University. I ended up dropping from my program and it took ten years for me to come back to school. That is when I decided to give Bellevue University a try. I love it. The classes are challenging and the teachers are attentive. I am doing better in school now then I ever have before.
Bellvue University is best known for being one of the first accredited institutions to offer online degree programs and is currently ranks in the top twenty Universities according to U.S. News and Report for the best online bachelor program survey.
What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?
The tuition rates, in my opinion, are too high for this school. Other State Universities nearby are cheaper and do not charge more per credit hour for online courses.
What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?
I am proud to be part of a university that truly cares about the success of each individual student. From program options to class, Bellevue goes above and beyond to ensure that there is an opportunity for every student to succeed.
Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!
There are quite a few things that made Bellevue University catch my attention. The first thing is that Bellevue University is a more mature campus where I was able to focus strictly on my academics. I really liked the location of Bellevue because I am able to get the big city feel while not actually being in a large city. I really enjoy the classroom sizes and how personable all the staff is. I was interested in Bellevue University since my sophomore year of High School due to the psychology program and the transferable credits.
