I went to this achool

Xavier is the perfect balance between a small liberal arts college and a large state university. Basketball games at the Cintas Center make you feel like you are at a big school, yet you almost never have to attend class in a lecture hall, and almost everything on campus can be reached in an under 15 minute walk.

Xavier is what you make it. Join clubs (they're cool and everyone is in them), make friends within your classes because there are so many fun people who have the same interests in you. Professors are kind, engaging, and caring, GO TO OFFICE HOURS. Also social life is fun if you put in just a little effort and go with the flow!

Xavier University is a place for everyone. It is a very accepting and loving school. They take their basketball very seriously and the students here are distinguished. Many of the students I know choose Xavier over Notre Dame, Butler, or Villanova (schools they got into) because of the people here. The clubs are awesome (No Greek life on campus).
