It is a green energy school, which is becoming even more greener. I like the idea that Scripps Institute is close by. The school has a special energy enabling a student's creative scholarship to reach beyond the limits of skies.

Literally the best school never! The clubs are great and so is the greek life! Although it is a smaller university you still see new people everyday! I was a little skeptical first attending but within a week I fell in love. The campus is so beautiful and the weather is amazing. Delicious food as well! Also lots of cute boys lol

Car stolen, assault, and still burglaries happening on regular. For all the money we pay too it should feel a bit safer and more welcoming. I hate this school.

too much general classes, less concentration in major. Student had a hard time finding a good position.

This college is overhyped. Seriously, if you go here you're not going to like it. All I can say is -_-
