Absolutely amazing atmosphere!!! I love WU!!!
Overall 4
Waynesburg is great and everyone is so kind, you make close bonds if you get involved. There are a lot of faith-based opportunities but they are not mandatory. The staff in the dining halls and dorms are so kind, and the class sizes are small and personable. If you consider coming here, just know if you are a party animal the school is not for you.
Overall 4
Quiet town with not much to do but keeps student focused on what is really important

Overall, not worth attending.
Overall 1.4
don't recommend this school for its location because there isnt really anything to do and on the weekends most students go home and those who dont are not normally seen around campus. In general i would not recommend this school to anyone but if you do choose to go to waynesburg be careful what major you want to pick because some teachers are awful

Nothing to do on campus or even near campus. If you don't have a car, you're pretty much screwed.
Overall 1.9
On campus, the school is small and not a very well known place. As far as location, its 20 miles away from anything fun so youll need a car. Not many opportunities for fun things, theres bingo night, mediocre wing night and guest speakers. Only the athlete or a nerd get anything for them. Safe place... so safe nobody comes here.

I had a horrible time here. The only thing I enjoyed was when they offered activities to us. Most of these were things an older person would do and not a college student. Slowly all the opportunities dwindled away and there was nothing my senior year.
