Professors

Attending post university has been such a wonderful experience. All of the staff and students are so supportive. I really enjoy my classes and learn a lot.

Current Student

Post didn’t at all disregard my issue and allowed me enrollment despite my previous school's tech issues.

Campus and vibes

Current Student

Love that they are with you from start to finish. They treat you like family not a number.

Cost and value

Prospective

I will like to see a change in poverty for low income persons; hoping that the scholarship comes through for kids.

Current Student

I’m being charged the full term of over $3300 on a $1148 monthly disability check I can’t possibly pay.
