4th year here, my time has flown by. The co-op program is extremely well established. There is an intimacy that comes with a small school, we are not "that one student", we are Joe, Sally, etc. Likewise, the profs are not "Dr. Amazing", they are Joe, Sally, etc. Antioch grabbed my attention & it's a perfect fit, maybe it will do the same for you.

Antioch is a special place but it takes a particular kind of student to go here. Very unorthodox in many ways, but I truly "found" myself here. I love Antioch, despite all its oddities and financial hardships. I want to work here sometime in my future - that's how much it means to me.

The campus is large and historically beautiful, but the atmosphere is toxic. Students leave or want to leave. Nobody wants to stay. Good luck getting an outside job because the quarter system and class schedules don't allow for any movement. The co-op (internship) system is good for resume building, but harmful to the psyche and you learn to move.
