WHAT I LIKED
Mcneese, although from the outside looks a bit run down and old, the education you will receive here is excellent. The perks of being at a smaller university are you are not just a number. Professors know you by name and are readily available to help you with whatever you need.
WHAT I didn’t LIKE
Don't allow yourself to be pulled into a university with updated everything. Mcneese has. an older campus with plans of revamping the campus. The education you receive within these walls is excellent.
While we do our best to show up-to-date information, due to COVID-19 and other factors out of our control, it is possible that the data we are showing about test requirements, application deadlines, and more, are inaccurate. Please verify with the college itself via their website to ensure you are aware of all requirements and deadlines.
