Good reviews
Overall 4.5
After being here for 2 years; I see the downsides and upsides, just like every college has. Yes some of the dorms could be better, but Ive seen a lot worse other places. The education and opportunities youll receive are unmatched. Ive never had an issue with parking and the entire staff is willing to work with you whatever your need may be.

Keuka gets a pretty bad reputation from other students but these are the facts: you CAN live off campus within 30 miles or if you are 23+ or medical reasons. The food can be rough but the Den is good! SO MANY OPPORTUNITIES are handed to you!! Dorms are not great but could be FAAAR worse. The town of Penn Yan has a lot of hidden gems.
Overall 4.1
gives you tons of opportunities to get real word experience and build your resume, whether through on-campus jobs or the yearly Field Period. Dorms are spacious with tons of storage, there's always something to do on campus. Food could be better but it's improved a lot!

There is NO reason to do poorly at Keuka, tutors are always available and they will help you with papers or preparing for exams. Profs and Docs are always available to talk to (in my experience) and often stay after classes or labs to help you. If you make the time and put forth effort for successful, Keuka's infrastructure is there to support you.

Whoever says Keuka is a good school is either a bit or too brainwashed to know any better. The only food thing about the school is the friends you make, but they eventually transfer after a semester or two and youre left with no friends. Housing is terrible and feels like a prison sentence.

It all sucks, they don't help you out on your field period which they pride themselves on. Its basically high school and the food sucks. Spare yourself from coming here.
Overall 1.1
Keuka college is one of the best traps around. They trick you into coming here with opportunity's for internships do me one is required each year. But they do not help you whatsoever with finding or contacting these places. They do not allow off campus living and the dorms are terrible. Do not come here, save the time money and stress.

If you want a well rounded experience, go else where. Just horroundous.

I went here for one year and i absolutely hated it. i already considered transferring around 3 months into my first semester. the dorms legitimately look like prison cells. the food absolutely sucks. small town. nothing to do. don’t recommend coming here if you’re looking for the college experience
Overall 1.2
Just graduated. If I have to do it again, I will not dream of applying here. Such a terrible school. Teachers are afraid of student evaluation. Thats not a good way to teach. Two good teachers left in the last two years. I don't blame them.
