"The facilities were really sparkling and the students seemed very satisfied with them. Everyone seemed gung-ho about the school and its vision." Report Response
"Tuition is now just over $36k. The area seemed a little run down, but not too much. I was ensured that ''careful'' and ''smart'' city dwellers are not punished by burglary or vandalism." Report Response
"I wish I'd had a better handle on what KCUMB hopes to achieve by adding so much technology into the curriculum. It was so overwhelming during the tour that I'm afraid I did not have enough time to react and digest it." Report Response
"KCUMB is a good school with top-notch facilities. If you would like to get an education that utilizes an innovative curriculum and gives you early practice in simulated clinical settings, then you may be happy here. Students there seemed excited and indicated that they thought they had made a good decision going here. On the negative side, it was clear that tuition expenses had crept steadily over the last few years rising from between 3-5% per year. Over the next four years a class of 2011 grad can expect tuition to increase from about $36k to just over $40k. To those looking for good in-state ''deals'' or value added features such as a free laptop, pda, or prepaid board preparation, this may seem like too much. The school's location is not very nice, but the apartments across the street are decent and nearby and seemed safe with the steel fence around everything. I tried not to get too caught up with this because the place seemed safe enough with plenty of security patrols and fencing. The only downside would be if you wanted to live in a nicer area and you had to commute. Among those I asked, commutes were still pretty modest though, from about 15-20 minutes." Report Response
