As a new undergraduate student I can say that my experiences at Alverno so far have been great. To be honest, in the begining I was afraid of all the new terminology-assesments, feedback, DDP and no grade system. Now I find it so helpful. The feedback received has helped me to improve my papers and the way I read and analyze a reading assignment. Some papers receive an extensive amount of feedback while other papers not so much. I attended a community college before Alverno so I can greatly appreciate seeing a paper with feedback compared to one with only a percentage or curve on it. As to problems with the financial aid office that should not reflect the teachers and values we are tought at Alverno.
