A lot of dedication to PT and PA programs but overall not bad
Overall 4
I'm in the PT program and I love it here. It's tiny, which is perfect bc everyone knows everyone- it's a small community. There are plenty of ways to get involved if you look for them. If you want to party there are always things going on in nearby neighborhoods or clubs. Lib is beautiful. Food is good. Overall very happy with Daemen :)

This college was terible. The education I receved was good but nothing speciel. If you want a social life and to have fun do not go here. Deamen is very overated.
Overall 1.2
I should have known that it was a mistake to go to this college. The social life here is non existent. The rooms are small and run down. The temperature is never right, you're either dying of heat or freezing to death. Honestly this is the most depressing school Ive ever seen. Don't waste time at a place that makes you second guess your whole life.
Overall 1.3
I did not enjoy the "college experience" Daemen provided. The only programs I would suggest here are PA, PT, or anything in natural sciences. If you want to go for anything that isn't a science, I would steer you in any other direction. The people on campus are nice, but not very bright. It is a very small school with limited social events.
Overall 1.4
Awful school. Very difficult. Advisors are not much help and difficult to get ahold of. Only went here because of the scholarship received.
Overall 1.4
Mediocre education. I chose to go here after receiving a scholarship that made it nearly free to attend. That said, I still regret my decision. Most of the teachers are incompetent. There is no consistency between classes. Either you have an unbelievable amount of work or the class moves at a high school pace. Oh, and social life is nonexistent.
Overall 1.8
I decided to choose Daemen because the PT program was known for being really good. But the campus is so small, and if you are a girl good luck finding a guy on campus. Its a really boring school with nothing to do. Also the teachers give you a lot of homework at a fast speed and never slow down or help you.
Overall 2
Super safe school in a safe area, but it is extremely boring. Outside of greek life, there aren't many active clubs to join. If you're not a PA, PT, or Nursing major, you'll have lots of opportunities for research and internships from your professors, as you are very likely the only one in your major for professors to give those opportunities to.
Overall 2
Its a nice campus to get a degree and get out, very small and kinda hard to make friends. I wish there was more opportunities for students but there's not much going on here.
