Reviews of Notre Dame of Maryland University (College)

Tracy Ann Therese

Best school for teachers who are having certification challenges. I spent nearly 8 years trying to get certification reciprocity from another state. From local counties, I had been told I needed 28 credits to teach Middle Grades Math, 39 for Tech Ed, both critical need. Other universities said to find out what MSDE said I needed and come back. Notre Dame mapped out 4 different pathways with their ACT Accelerated Certification in Teaching program. The lowest was 4 classes, and I am choosing the 6 classes which are directly related to my work.

The Business Office is lazy. Financial Aid is useless and Erika Elie is unprofessional. Their "Student Aid Process" is a headache. The food provided by SAGE is garbage at best and the staff is rude. Horrible school. Room and Board is overpriced for what you get. Don't apply here! Waste of money!!!!!!!

Love it

Worst. Administrative staff. Ever. Not one thing gets done without "human error" and not a single apology. In addition to your academics, if you want additional headache with your financial aid, student loans, and account balances, then you have come to the perfect place.

A colossal mistake.

I love Notre Dame. Coming from California, I have found a home away from home. The small community encourages me to strive for greatness. All of the teachers know my name. Every day, as I walk across campus, people wave and say hello. Also as a student athlete, NDMU has so much to offer. We welcome tri-sport athletes, and the coaches are super encouraging. If I need to miss class for a game, my teachers are very understanding. I had so many great colleges to choose from when I was a senior in high school, but it is clear I made the right choice. The opportunities, environment, and education have made me a fearless Notre Dame woman.

This review is of the Entry level BSN nursing program. To be fair, this institution actually has a very good nursing program. The culture of the environment however needs plenty of improvements. This nursing program lacks cultural diversity and sensitivity. The nursing program and it’s educators still caters to the program’s largely Caucasian student population. All of the full time professors that lecture are white with the exception of one Indo-Caribbean professor. This has created an environment of both intentional and unintentional biases, which has also created an open tolerance for racial and ethnic prejudices that should never be acceptable or tolerated in an educational environment. The nursing program would greatly benefit from including an office of Cultural diversity and inclusion to better accommodate and nurture its students from different racial and ethnic backgrounds.

The absolute worst school I have ever attended.

If you are looking for a university that constantly drops classes without notifying you and consistently mess up your financial aid and student loans, then this is the university for you. I have never dealt with such an unorganized and incompetent higher education facility. If I were not so close to reaching my end goal with my education I would transfer. If you are planning on taking courses at the HEAT Center in Aberdeen through Notre Dame, such as myself, don't bother because courses are rarely offered there and I have had 3 courses in the past 2 semesters that were to be held at the HEAT Center that have been cancelled and I was never notified by Notre Dame. Now they have notified Fed Loans that I graduated in August when I have not completed all my coursework. Talk about unorganized. I don't think I have encountered one person on the administrative staff that seems like they know what they are doing. I can say my professors have been good; however all of the negative encounters I have had with administration has overshadowed those positives.

I love this college! I will be eternally thankful for all that I have learned with all staff and faculty! This university really work on the motto: "Educating Women to transform the world"

Absolutely everything you do at this school goes wrong. I was a transfer student, and months after transferring they lost my old transcripts. If you change your major, or add a second one, be prepared to submit the same form multiple times. This school needs to keep up with other schools and allow for online course registration! Everything being done on paper is why everything continues to be lost. Don't come here if you're a science major, not only do you have lecture and lab, you will have extra labs to run on your own outside of class time. The biology department is filled with unmotivated, pretentious professors.

Notre Dame of Maryland was the last college I visited, but the first one that felt like home. I'm only a sophomore, but I know that I made the best decision because the faculty, staff, and student body make this place so great. My professors are always available and helpful, which is great in a pinch, and living on campus with my friends is the best thing I could have asked for. The programs create something for everyone (as seen in my own dorm!) with one roommate as Pre-Pharm in the 3/4 year program, the other currently applying for the Nursing Program, and I'm applying for the 5 year MAT program for education. Notre Dame really is the place to be!

I'm currently a Junior at NDM. I'm orginally from Southern Maine but I really enjoy going to school in Baltimore. Notre Dame has given me a great experience to grow as a student and as a leader. I have been President of Dance Team for three years now, and there are so many other student leadership opportunities available on campus. I am also a Nursing major, and I believe I will be more than prepared to join the nursing field by the time I graduate. The Nursing department and faculty here are extremely knowledgeable and approachable and want all of their students to succeed.
