Most of the professors were outstanding. They really went out of their way to help you. It was truly a great experience. The only issue would be the cost. Do not take loans if you do not have to and if you have to only borrow the minimum amount you need. Apply for scholarships and grants.

The professor at Nova Southeastern University are one of a kind. Each and every one of them want you to succeed. They go over and beyond to help you understand the material and well prepare you to be ready for your career upon graduation. Invaluable experience and education. However, the school financial aid could use some revamp. There should be more scholarship opportunities for graduate students and more of a variety.

I am currently enrolled in Nova Southeastern University's Shepard Broad Law School. The program boasts a great deal of diversity with regards to both its student body and professors. Their day program is an great program with many services available to students. The evening program is slightly less accomodating for evening students who work full-time during the day. Events and activities are usually during daytime/communiting times and assistance from support services is not usually available after... Read More

NSU Law has excellent professors that challenge their students to think like lawyer so that they are prepared to be successful attorneys. The career center has an extensive alumni network in South Florida and frequently have career fairs. However, the only con is the price of a legal education. No matter where you attend, its not going to come cheap.

I have been very informed on upcoming events and school information. The cost of attendance is high but I think that it is worth the money I pay for my education. Nova offers many social events to help the students get to know each other including mixers and a Facebook group in which the Dean is very involved. I have made many useful connections which will help me have a successful future.

My grad program is wonderful, it allows me to take courses for my JD degree on a part-time basis. The staff and faculty have been so helpful and informative. As a working student this program is great for me to accomplish my goal of being a lawyer.

Overall, Nova Southeastern is a stellar private institute. The Law program is the most challenging program i have ever encountered. However, with the help of my professors, faculty as well as students it has been a somewhat easy transition. The school is the least diverse University I have attended. Diversity is one of the few things this school lacks.

Nova Southeastern University's Law program provides a lot of support for its incoming students. The professors have an open door policy which they do adhere to. The school is also very good with informing its students as too available networking opportunities both on and off campus. The cons of this school like most graduate programs is that it is very expensive and the school does not offer much in the way of scholarships and grants for its students.

Aside from the school being on the expensive side and the constant problems with printer/internet malfunctions, I have enjoyed my experience at Nova Southeastern University. The professors are very knowledgeable and most have an open door policy. Therefore, they are always available if you need that extra help. The class sizes are between 50-65 students per class, which is great because your professors typically get to know you personally instead of you being just a number. Housing around campus...

It is the nearest option for students living in Martin, St. Lucie and Palm Beach counties who wish to commute to law school. The programs is rather solid with an increasing reputation in the area. I believe that the alumni network may be its most valuable asset for those who wish to build a career in South Florida.

Pros: Professors do have an open door policy.The professors are extremely accommodating to students who need to meet to further discuss class topics. Nova offers tips on resume building and offers a lot of networking opportunities. The school has a variety of campus organizations who host different functions, which are attended by attorneys, judges, members of the legislature. Cons: Not a lot of scholarships are offered through the school.

The pros is that it is an an established program that combines a traditional curriculum with developing skills used by attorneys on a daily basis. I find that aspect of the program to be valuable. The con is that the the technological infrastructure can be improved. The wireless network is something to be desired.

I love this school so far. I only wish they would condense the places we need to go online to access things. Putting it all in one place would be very helpful.

There are many pros that come with attending Nova Law School, including the faculty, the opportunities and the law school itself. The main con with attending Nova is the cost of attendance. Other then the cost Nova is a great school to study law.

Nova has a lot to offer. It's a good school and I enjoy my time there, despite the massive debt I'm acculturating for law school. I truly hope my education is worth the money I'm paying for it.
