What Students Are Saying

The work isn't always easy but the challenge alone is part of what makes Fisk so great. It pushes you to the limit and shows you what your capable of.
Jazmine from Chicago, IL
Challenging but fun
Victor from Nigeria
Understanding Rigor to mean strict, cruel, uncomfortable, etc., the courses here at Fisk are opposite. They are very necessary and not overwhelmingly challenging. In the case that they do become overwhelming, simple communication with the professor will have you feeling very accomplished and educated.
James from Maple Heights, OH
You will work for your good grades, but there are so many tutors and programs to assist you - there isn't a reason for you to ever worry about not having the help you need.
Yazjae from Chesapeake, VA
Fisk's courses are both academicallay challenging and interesting. Fisk offers a wide range of classes from photography to Rocket Team. Professors have a general love for all of the students and work hard to guide each student to success.
Darica from Blytheville, AR
The teacher to student ratio is low. The academic curriculum is challenging but attainable.
