I love it here!! Professors are super kind and caring, and I feel safe in my identity as a Jewish student. I would recommend this college to anyone looking to pursue a career in healthcare, the arts, or both! There is plenty of room to explore all of your nerdy interests.

Coming here was the best decision I made. Yes, there can be a lot of work but the campus life is worth it. I feel very safe on campus. Also, I feel very connected to my peers and professors. I would not change my decision to come here for the world.

Overall 1.7
Terrible school. Food tastes good but makes you terribly ill. Unless you are some type of an arts major or premed there are no opportunities for you. Social life is even worse than high school. People are sadistic and act like they are in middle school. Parties are a joke and you are way better off hosting something in a dorm room than going out
Overall 1.9
You'll like it if you like a SUPER tiny school and campus. Can be very cliquey and claustrophobic. The mental health services are a joke. The social life is kinda what you make of it, but if you don't have connections you won't go out a lot. Not very diverse. Classes are hard to get into due to small class size. Many teachers are great though.
