Keiser University Employer Reviews

Learned how to be a nurse. I have always been compasionate and caring so I knew this was the right career for me. Its a very stressful job but its a very rewarding career

Student and faculty interaction, career counseling, enrollment support

Students are groomed for the real world. Faculty, staff and administration are nurturing keep students success the forefront.

good experience, learned many things not learned in classroom. In fact classroom instruction could have been much better, did not really get the education equal to the high price of the tuition. By the time I graduated, the school had all but abandoned it's IT curriculum and became a medical, health care career mill.

Management is joke, if you can kiss backside you will be taken care of. This is a good job for a recent grad with decent pay. But they lie to you from the jump. They tell you all you have to do is talk to students and not worry about sales.. THIS is nothing but a sales jobs. The lie lie lie until you figure it out and leave. If you need a job take it – more... but keep looking. They have mass layoffs every 6 to 8 months. this job is a joke it's straight sales and if you do not meet the goals you will be let go. Might as well go to another school that is straight forward about it being a sales job and pays more for the bs – less

Keiser University over works their employees and rarely compensates them for it. There was a lawsuit (Google it) against them recently for not paying their employees time and a half for over times hours. They also are not very ethical at all. They will let their student start classes without being cleared financially and if after a week they are not – more... cleared they will bill them for the entire semester. The Sun-Sentinel Newspaper has written many articles about the school and their unethical business practices; at one point they were enrolling students without a credible high school diploma's (Google it). The school is all about profit and not about learning. They even have unqualified management working there. Don't take this job, they won't care about you at all!

THIS WAS SCHOOL AND I GRADUATED THE COURSE WITH 4.0 GPA. I ENJOYED THE COUSRE VERY MUCH AND PART OF THE COUSRE WAS DIRECTED AT WORKING IN A MEDICAL PRACTICE

A typical day at work includes contacting perspective students, counseling students who are interested in going to college and help them choose the path that is right for them. The Director of Admissions is not a micro manager which makes it for a nice work environment along with my co-workers The hardest part of the job is getting the students to stick – more... with their decision and processing them through financial aid. The most enjoyable part of my job is watch the students that I have helped walk down that isle and receive their diploma. – less

Fast paced environment. Great co-workers. Love working in the higher education field. very rewarding.

Overall my two years with Keiser have been excellent. I have learned much in the areas of problem solving, communication, time management and organization.

My co-workers are what make this job fun. We work hard together and truly work as a team to help each team member find success. My co-workers over the past 2 years have become not only friends, – more... but part of my family. The relationships built at Keiser will last a lifetime.

The hardest part of the job is overcoming student obstacles. Every student has a list of reasons why they cannot or should not pursue school. It is my job to help them see the value of the education they are receving rather than the cost of tuition. The current economic situation in this country can make this challenging.

My favorite part of the job is seeing my students excel. I love to see my adult studnets, who were terrified to return to school in the beginning, come to me with As on their "report cards." It is incredible to see how I can help change their lives and the lives of those they love. It is that aspect of the job that keeps me coming back everyday. It makes me feel good to know I help them change their lives forever. Seeing my students graduate and pursue thier dream careers is the best reward I could ask for. – less

This company always has ads posted because no one stays! All jobs end up being high-pressure sales and few can survive their unrealistic benchmarks in this economy. AVOID AVOID AVOID

I have worked for many corporations in my life and this place is a joke. My heart breaks for the students who attend this school. The tuition is outrageous.

This place is all smiles at first. Then they don't make their sales quotas, er- "enrollment goals" and make it MANDATORY to work 3-4 Saturdays in a row to make up for the slack that you may or may not have caused. It is all a joke, really. Management was poor and highly under qualified, preaching a work/life balance, but when you are worked to the bone – more... for 6 days a week for 4 weeks straight it just makes you laugh. – less

It took me almost two years to find a job in my field. It was also very over priced. If I had to go back and do things differently I would definitely reconsider my choice of schools.

Great work enviroment and management team. Only 40 hour work week which is nice. Some last minute schedule changes are common. Learned about the higher education system, financial aid, and learned a lot about how a not for profit university works.

A typical day at work is that I come in and check the daily balances on the bank websites because we have 2 banks. I then download the daily bank activity so that the accountants can enter the daily transactions. I will then reconcile the positive pay exceptions. I also send various departments reports of the funds that came in for their department. – more... I will usually do the daily deposits for the coporate office using Remote Deposit software. I process stop payments. I also will research and answer questions that come in from our 30+ campuses concerning banking issues. I iniate wires as needed.

Being that I am the only one that does all of the banking for the company I have learned the whole process of the treasury function. – less

The instructors at Keiser are dedicated to their students but often have to fight with the management to make the management do right by the student and/ or program. The management is all about numbers and profit and will always put profit before education. The admissions department is a revolving door job. The entire department changes employees when – more... the numbers are less than desired. The management has no reservations with breaking their own policies and procedures if it means higher profits. Unfortunately, the great instructors are often asked to do more with less to increase numbers and profits. Often the instructors are asked to teach more classes than are allowed by the accrediting agencies and are asked to work more of their time for no more pay. There is absolutely no job security. Moral is always very low. Toxic work environment. – less

It was a fun place to work and I loved my co-workers. Learned alot at tjis job.

Experienced helping future students to achieve their career goals. Satisfaction to be able to counsel and help them select the best career based on their qualities and hobbies.

Only the Admissions Department is valued. Students are enrolled regardless of academic ability. There is little planning done in advance.
