I am really annoyed that it states that there is a section for extra credit. But the only extra credit was from the bonus points given in the lecture, how can that be, especially since it was always the same ten people called on. Then the end of course celebration, again the same ten people got their art shown, with additional extra credit points. WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF US......... I found this to be very unfair and biased.

Currently, spring 2026 student in my first semester, finishing out my first two courses, loving it so far. Just my speed. Definitely very insightful information and a great way to learn and still do things in your everyday life for online students. I absolutely love this school and would recommend it to anybody who's trying to deepen their knowledge in consciousness or Ayurveda .

So far, I am enjoying the overall experience. It is cater to my wellness growth and educational growth. It has enriched my life tremendously.

Studying at MIU has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. For the first time, I feel like I’m in a place that truly aligns with who I am at my core. I’ve always known I was a colorful, outside-the-box person, and traditional college environments never quite fit. But MIU feels different. It feels like it was made for people like me. People who want depth, purpose, and a full-spectrum education that honors the mind, body, and spirit. Learning here has ignited something in me. The way MIU blends spirituality with science has opened up a whole new world of understanding and sparked a passion I didn’t even know I was searching for. I finally feel like I’ve found my purpose, and I’m genuinely excited to see where this path takes me. The teachers here are extraordinary. They are supportive, encouraging, and deeply invested in your growth. It never feels like the goal is to test you to the point of breaking. Instead, everything is designed to help you rise, to improve, to expand, and to become the best version of yourself. That kind of environment changes you in the most beautiful ways. I’m truly grateful to be here. MIU isn’t just a university to me; it’s a place where I’m rebuilding my life, discovering my potential, and finally feeling fully supported in every dimension of who I am.

My initial ten weeks at Maharishi International University have been a unique experience, affirming my perception of MIU as an exceptional educational institution dedicated to holistic knowledge and inner growth. As a full-time working single mother of five, balancing academic rigor with life's daily demands is a constant challenge. This often means I yearn for more time to deeply absorb each lesson, allowing the profound information to settle without haste. Yet, the accessibility of the modules offers a comforting flexibility, ensuring I can revisit and truly integrate the material at my own pace a huge practical benefit for my lifestyle. Despite the ongoing "inner battle" to maintain perfect consistency with practices like meditation and healthy eating, I've already recognized significant shifts in my consciousness. I find myself experiencing heightened creativity, especially when I manage to disconnect from the overwhelming "programming" of social media. This new awareness allows me to consciously pull myself away, protecting my mental space and fostering a more authentic inner dialogue. Moreover, the course has inspired practical changes: the daily practice of Abhyanga (sesame oil massage) has become a cherished, stress-relieving ritual for my family and me, and I've made conscious dietary shifts towards more legumes and grains, significantly reducing meat consumption. These adjustments, directly inspired by the STC course, are already positively impacting my physical well-being and bringing a much-needed sense of calm. MIU truly offers a pathway to transformative learning, even when navigated at the speed of a busy life.

Great Exsperience, exactly what I was looking for.

The webinars made the experience all the more worth it. They were great. We had such loving energy throughout this class and it was fulfilling

This course has been a great balance of experiential discovery and education for me. Though I have years of background in these topics, I have really enjoyed this course and am very pleased with what I have learned and the transformations I've begun to see during this time. I have gained new, and much deeper scientific awareness and understanding of some of the foundational pieces that I hadn't considered before.  I have noticed feeling way more settled, confident and content at a core physical level. I am naturally adjusting my diet, exercise and meditation practice to continue to contribute to deeper rest, which was never as much of a focus as I'd like it to be, now, especially having chronic health conditions that could use that restful energy at a deeper cellular level to repair. I am becoming more self-aware and learning how to pick up on important subtleties by slowing down to be more open, clear and receptive.
