Despite its small campus appearance, Heritage University has a big heart and soul. Its professors are more than happy to help aid a student in need. Its small classrooms allow more room for growth and personalized one-on-ones with the professor. Additionally, the school is a hidden gem. I'd recommend this school to any of my current senior students. I know they're in great hands.
Jennifer - 03/13/2021
I have gone to another school before and it was nothing compared to Heritage University. At Heritage University it is a small school and everyone gets to know each other. The professors are always willing to help and always available. They have some of the greatest professors who provide us with not only education but hope too.
The food on campus is great and the cafeteria is a place where anyone can gather and make friends. The food is not expensive and they provide a variety of food to choose from.
Jocelyn - 09/30/2020
I think it's a great school. Due to COVID-19, I have not been able to attend in person classes yet. However, I have been able to experience some great zoom calls with my instructors and classmates. This isn't how I thought my first year at college would go but I'm glad it's going as well as it is.
Elizabeth - 07/31/2019
Overall this University is a good alternative if you want to stay close to home, this University is also a good way to start off your education. Heritage is overall a small campus meaning everyone knows each other, even if it's just by face. The classrooms are relatively small, this is great for one on one with your professor. However, if you're a big sports person I recommend going elsewhere, this college doesn't have any sports teams.
breezie - 07/08/2019
heritage university is a not only to learn. when you enroll in this school you gain a family. the classes are small so you wont get lost in the crowed. the professors are so nice and understanding. the most important thing in this school is accepting everyone.
Sonia - 02/23/2019
I rated it a 4 star because there is barely anything to do right after class, some students just go to class and go straight home because their is barely anything to do. But overall, Heritage University is a great school to be in! I would recommend this school to everyone because the professors and students there are really helpful and overall really welcoming. Also, when you need help on a material there is always a tutor that can help you understand the subject better. Lastly, the class size is great and the school is culturally great.
Areli - 11/16/2018
Heritage University is a great school to attend it really hits close to home! There is so much encouragement to get involved especially with all the clubs and organizations thought campus! The communication with professors is strong and they are likely to be there for you and help you succeed.
Almarosa - 10/31/2018
Heritage University is a great place. The class sizes are small which is perfect because it gives you more time with the instructor. The instructors are very caring and want you to succeed. Classes are set up in such a convenient way that you have to try really hard in order to fail. Heritage University truly wants the students to succeed.
Kaitlin - 02/08/2018
They staff is very supportive of the students and always willing to help. The facilities are nice in some buildings, not so much in others. They are very supportive and inclusive of diversity. They offer evening classes for those who are working students. It's a great school over all!
Cecilia - 02/22/2017
Heritage University is a small campus. The students mostly just come to class and leave right after because there is nothing to do around here, we are literally in the middle of no where. Something I really like about Heritage is that the staff/professors are always willing to help to ensure the success of the students attending.
Briseida - 11/09/2016
Heritage is a overall I good college to attend. The classes are small, which allows you to have more one on one with teachers. The staff is very involved in our school academics. We have places like the ASC and Writing center that helps us with our academic needs , such as studying, writing skills and much more. The environment is very friendly, it feels more that just a university it feels like a home.
Alexander - 09/21/2016

What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
If I could give advice to myself in high school, I would tell myself to start Running Start sooner (junior year) and use that time to take more versatile prerequisites, such as speech. In addition, I would tell myself to go to Central Washington University instead of Heritage, forego the minor in education, and to take advantage of as many technical writing and grant writing courses as I possibly could. Those are the choices I should have made that I am paying for now. I would also encourage myself to spend more time looking for grants and scholarships during my senior year, so that college wasn't such a drain on my resources. I have thrived in college for the most part, but I made some serious missteps because I didn't have a good advisor at my disposal to help me chart my course. That, I think, would be the last piece of advice I would give myself: find a good advisor or counselor and use them to chart out a postsecondary plan that makes sense for you. I wish I had that time to do over. There is a lot I would do differently.
Heritage University is best known for it's diversity and it's a private institution with classes that contain small amount of students; therefore proffesors help us understand our curriculm to the fullest without stress.
I can't think of any positives associated with Heritage University. I would encourage prospective students to save their time and money and go some place else. I wish someone had told me the same thing. The school is very expensive and the quality of education is very poor. A majority of the courses I was instructed to take had little or nothing to do with my chosen field of study. I hope no one else makes the same mistake.
What's the most frustrating thing about your school?
Financial Aid is the most dissapointing, hands down. Funding seems to be in late after school is in it's first couple of weeks. It is bothering because I need books and it depends on how fast funding comes in. Some of their staff seem shortsided on how to write an "official" need analysis for some scholarship requirements. The cashier lady seems like she hates her job at times. Other than that though, it really is a nice school.
To attend Heritage University is to view a diversity of muti-colors of people. No one is judge by appearences, dress or ethnicity. Everyone is welcome to a share what is on their mind.
All students must apply yearly for financial aid. This process starts with the FAFSA.
Though financial aid deadlines vary by school, it is a good idea to apply as soon as possible. For the upcoming school year, you can apply as early as October 1 for the FAFSA. Additional school aid will be dependent on the FAFSA results.
100% of students attending Heritage University receive some sort of financial aid.
73% were awarded federal grants.43%received federal loans. Many students do also need to apply for additional private student loans.
