The dorms are kidna small, but it makes you come closer to your roomate, some of the girls rooms don't have ACs! The buildings are so beautiful and comfortable. The professors are like friends. I love the activities this campus offers. Winter here is depressing but spring is AWESOME cute.

I love the overall ambiance at Walla Walla University. For freshman it might be difficult to adapt. There's a certain culture here that might be different from where you come from, but overall it gets better each year you are here.

Bad reviews

You better like small towns, because the nearest population center is an hour away. You better like being treated like a child too, because the rules are crazy strict, like curfews and mandatory attendance of religious services. The internet is fast.. if you have an ethernet cable. Wifi cuts in and out all the time. Cafeteria is entirely vegetarian
