Tiny, Catholic Kings College in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania offers small class sizes, hands-on laboratory work, an Honors program core that revolves around discussion, and many helpful places on campus for individuals in need of any type of assistance. Everyone at Kings is helpful and mindful with any problems that a student is facing, and students rave about how committed staff is to one-on-one assistance and learning opportunities. The physician assistant, nursing, and engineering programs are standouts, but almost all majors boast a high job placement rate and plenty of notable alumni; Kings has a great career planning department, especially for accounting majors. The school has so many recruiters coming onto campus to interview for internships or full-time positions, with a goal for students to have a full-time offer before starting [their] senior year.
Professors are outstanding, typically resourceful, relate material to how the real world works, and are always making sure the students know about their office hours. They teach how to think beyond the information that is laid out in the textbook, are down to earth and like what they do, and are active in seeking out students who need help. Classes are structured with a flexibility that gets you ready for the professional world, and some classes are service-based and have students go out into the community and help them instead of just learning about it in class.
