Gps led me astray. Gym not easy to find. But campus looked nice and clean. People on campus friendly

I didn't study in this university, but I had a great day in it. It was a lecture about astronomy, and it was so great. The hall was so big, and there were a lot of chairs for everybody. The lecture was introduced by dr. Stephen Jean's, and he was so knowledgable about this subject and easy to understand. He explained everything to everyone, even children. Children asked him questions also, and he replied in a way that they understand him. After the lecture, we drank hot chocolate, and went outside. Then we watched stars by telescopes. It was a fantastic day. I hope they will do more lectures in this university.

Finished my BSc in Biology here in 2016. After that, our program head was fired without cause or compensation. Professor turnover is high. There is lots of toxic interdepartmental bickering. If you're looking for quality post-secondary education in science at Ambrose, that time has long passed.

Amazing school. The teachers always offer a high level of thinking and consideration on all topics

I'm in my third year as of review. I love Ambrose, from the small classes, to the professors who want to see you succeed and the solid people who are part of the school. There isn't free parking at the school until nights and the classes are expensive, but if you can do it, I think the time here, even for a year is so worth it.

Great classes and activities! Would recommend to anyone!

Okay so I'm coming to the end of my first year and I just want to say a few things. The profs are good, classes are good, food is fine, res is good but the real reason i'm writing this review is because of the staff, not prof included. Let's call them the backbone of Ambrose. People like the cooks, admin, the calf ladies who scan your card, our custodial staff, maintenance and upkeep people, and security! These people go above and beyond. We have 24 hour security so when I leave my room at 2 O'clock I feel safe as I know there is a security guard close by. Heres a quick little story about the grounds up-keep people. Today I was sitting outside and I look up to see one of them sweeping the road and getting rid of the dry grass. Its a little thing, the grass would have blown away and it wouldn't have really affected anything, but this man sweeps it up so it doesn't blow away. The campus looks good and people aren't choking on dried grass. The backbone of Ambrose is the best part. :)

Took the BA of History and would HIGHLY recommend Ambrose. Excellent and caring professors, nice facilities, small class sizes, and very supportive environment overall.

I went here several years ago for some open studies courses and to this day I am still shocked about it. Had a Theology professor trying to convince everyone in class that its not God the Father but its God the Mother...which is not mentioned anywhere in the bible and is complete heresy. How she was a professor is so beyond me. Among many other things this institution is completely overrun with far left ideas. Like what is seen happening among most western universities. This university is not a Christian university. Its just a place where the bible is talked about.

I’m a big fan of Ambrose’s library. It’s a nice, quiet place to study or work on papers. The Calf (the student cafeteria) is moderately priced, and the food is quite tasty. The Ambrose Lions bookstore has textbooks, Ambrose apparel and merchandise, and a selection of books by Ambrose faculty members.

Disappointing and disingenuous.

I have such a deep love for this place. Caring, personable and professional instructors promote critical and realistic studies of their various disciplines. This is a place to learn, grow, and become a more socially aware global citizen, all the while experiencing the growing vibrancy of your walk with Christ.

For a "Christian university" there is nothing here that practices that. I never got the support I needed as someone with a disability and was told I wasn't enough when going for the music program (I have been performing since I was a child) and Ultimately was told "people with disabilities pursue other things than school. So I left and joined Univeraity of Alberta as a theatre and music major and had a wholly different and supportive experience. I am now in LA pursuing my dreams with my husband. My professors are my mentors and I am a full fledged Wagnarian opera Soprano and also a rheatre actor. Price is way too expensive for courses (1100/course) and up until now they ask me for money because of my "amazing" experience. If I could give no stars I would.

On January 18, 2019 I sent an email to Ambrose and asked the following question: " Does your school teach a literal Genesis including 6 day young earth creation?" It is now February 18, 2019 I have not received any reply to this email. This is fact #1. Fact #2 The Curriculum Vitae of Denis Oswald Lamoureux, author of I Love Jesus & I Accept Evolution, indicates this under lectures he had delivered in 2017: Ambrose University. Calgary, AB. Public Lecture “Beyond the Evolution vs. Creation Debate.” Seminar for Professors on the Anti-Evolutionism in Evangelicalism. 6 Oct. Fact #3 If you google "conservative colleges which teach young earth creationism" you should be able to find a list of colleges which teach a literal Genesis including a six 24 hour day creation, no death before sin, a global flood and a young earth. This list was updated on January 4, 2019 and Ambrose is not on the list. You can draw your own conclusions from these 3 facts but whether or not you got to Ambrose I would suggest that you google "Biblical Creation" and you will find numerous resources which support the Bible.
