I cherish my memories of Graceland, I have yet to come across a better University (and I do have a lot of experience with universities across the country). It prepared me for the future and will remain in my heart forever.
Overall 4.2
I am more than thrilled that I chose Graceland as my undergraduate institution. Even though it is small, unassuming, and no one has heard of it, it provided me with memories I will cherish forever and an education that prepared me for my tier 1 graduate school. I have visited multiple universities across the country and NO school has compared to GU

Graceland is a beautiful campus in a very small town. There isn't much to do off campus but if you want to be involved then you can fill your calender no problem. The professors seem to really care about both the student's success academically as as growth as a person. Your friends and connections at Graceland are there for life

Graceland is in the middle of freaking no where. there is no food selection in the town and and there is never nothing to do on the weekend. it is a very dead place to be i do not recommend this school for anyone. its like a glorified high school.
