I lived in Riddick, Roberts, and then Moore my last 2 years. While Ferrum has its flaws it's overall amazing. Yea the food and WiFi could be bad but it wasn't a make or break situation. The social aspect and family atmosphere is what made this school home, I would love to see Ferrum do great things!

Ferrum excels at hands on learning in agriculture and environmental science. I transferred from another school. I have learned so much from working closely with the professors and getting real life field experience. The professors are very engaged. Lots to do on campus if you want to be involved. Dorms are quite good. Food is good. I love it here

This place is horrendous! if u want to be isolated and look at mountains all day and be surrounded by weirdos go here. there's no life on this campus no cool party. this is a complete opposite of a college experience. biggest waste of money. i left after one fall semester

Go elsewhere. This is community college with more parties. If you've been accepted to a different college, take that offer.
