Thiel College is a great place for personal and professional growth.Thiel offers a tight-knit community where it is easy to make friends and the faculty know students by name. The professors I have had thus far, go above and beyond to ensure student success and are available to meet outside of the classroom for further instruction if needed.
Overall 4.1
Thiel College is a great school to learn at. The professor to student ratio is 13 to 1. This allows your professor to personally invest in you, and your education. The clubs and organizations are great. The campus itself is nice, however, the town of Greenville leaves something to be desired. If you want a small school experience, I recommend it.
Overall 4.1
Thiel College provided a small campus atmosphere where professors and students become a family of learners and colleagues. There is a feeling of mutual respect and support in academics and campus life. Thiel continually is making improvements to increase the quality of the educational and social experience. I love Thiel College.

Don't waste your time and money here! This place is terrible!
Overall 2
Awful location in a dead town, coin toss between good professors and terrible ones, food is bad, buildings are in ruins, transferring credits is a nightmare, most the athletics are mediocre, greek life is a joke, no parties or social life.
