The professors were great they helped you whenever they could. They were very understanding and got to know you on a personal level. Class sizes were smaller, but helped because you really got the necessary connection needed to succeed! Food wasn’t the best, but had alternative options on campus. Smaller campus with little walking distance! Dorms were clean up to date and roomy!
If you want me to be honest Defiance College is a mid-acceptable school. Living in the city and the surroundings are acceptable the professors are very helpful, been a very helpful hand for me throughout my time here. Also its a place that can keep you on track because there's nothing really here.
Defiance College is a small private college that is very community based. The college works really well with their students and trying to help give them the best education the student wants for their major. With a 15:1 ratio you will be able to get all the help you will need if you are struggling with any of your school work. There are many things to do around campus and the students and facility are so welcoming to anyone on campus. There are many activities to do on campus such as attend sporting events, many activities during welcome week, and specials going on during the week at many different locations.
