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. :)

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.
Ambrose provides a holistic education experience. It's a place to develop professional skills, strong character, and deep friendships -- all in an environment that is open to discussing questions about faith & religion. Classes are small and the student community is close-knit. Professors care deeply about the subjects they teach and they get to know students on a personal level. The campus is beautiful and the interiors are filled with natural light. I highly recommend Ambrose!
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.
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.
Ok
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.
Disappointing and disingenuous.
