    I enjoy being at Cookman because of the environment that I'm surrounded by and the people. Being at Cookman would really reveal who you are and what you want in life. As I can say with do I enjoy it alot no because Cookman is so much money for no reason. The dorms are dirty and the food is disgusting. Why pay 21,000 for something that's not even worth it. The only reason I stay at Cookman is because of the people, the comunity, and they won't transfer any grades.

    From the time of my campus visit, until I moved in the dorm everyone has truly made me feel at home. Everyone is so friendly and are very helpful too. I had no problem finding my way around and everything I desire is within walking distance. I hope you like exercise, there is a lot a of walking and you get to see more of the beautiful campus. I never realized the history lesson the campus offers, I have learned things about Black History that I never received when I was in school.
