Davenport University

Davenport University is a friendly place to work and to attend school. Very pleasant environment. I have been employed at Davenport University for a little over a year now and I have enjoyed the journey.

Surprisingly very green and clean lawn. I lay on it during the summer. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a student there though and I’ve lived around it for 2 years..

I must admit, this University have one of the most caring, flexible, knowledgeable, reliable, hands on, timely and committed Senior Advisor (Jessica Cheriez) you will EVER come in contact with. Based on my experience, Jessica consistently proves her self worth as a strong and effective leader whom cares about your education and drive to be successful on a continuous basis. Jessica; If you're reading this thank you for all that you do to make this University and their students highly ranked achievers.

If you are looking to attend the nursing program here I am going to say, do not waste your time. This school is a complete joke. The advisor does not know anything, the nursing board does not care for your success, and there is no organization. This school is worth $10 not $5,000 a semester. You're better off applying somewhere else.

I’m mad I have to give this school one star because they don’t even deserve that! I don’t recommend them at all. I was set up to attend another nursing school but spoke with a representative that made Davenport seem a lot better. So I applied to this school because they made it seem like it was a sure thing with getting accepted. I started taking general classes at the university that went towards my LPN program before it started. I was under the impression that this would establish a GPA for myself. I found out two weeks into my classes that they weren’t going to because they ended after the application deadline! I could have took those classes somewhere else for a much cheaper price! But I let that go and pressed through my classes. They told me that I had to score high on TEAS test and turn in my essay with references. I did all of the above and then some but still got denied over an issue with my transcripts. Then they made me request them to be sent over to say that yea we’re still not going to accept you. They were oh so helpful with getting me enrolled but when it came down to a simple error they don’t want to give me a call back or help me through it. They just said apply again next year. What makes you think I would want to return to this school??? This was absolutely devastating thinking that you had a plan to better yourself and it be shot down over something so little. It took me a while to be able to execute this. I wish I would have never wasted my time here. I gave up my spot at another school which pushes my graduation date back and now I have more student loan debt and out of pocket costs! A big part of picking a school is staff support along the way and after you’re enrolled here it’s clear you won’t get it. Don’t attend this school.
