Rating 3.65 out of 5 877 reviews
When I first arrived at Eastern University I was fascinated by the nature. It is a very beautiful campus filled with many animals, flowers, and life. As I became more involved with campus activities, I found it easy to make friends, talk to professors, and find stuff to do. SAB runs many events where students are able to go to Flyers games, Phillies games, and Washington D.C. Another thing I love is how Eastern is super diverse and gives everyone an opportunity to be themselves and make an impact. All in all, my three years at Eastern have been amazing, and I can't wait to make more memories!
The best thing about Eastern is the professors! They are personable and incredibly caring. Academically they are tough but not without support from professionals, professors, and peers. The campus itself is so beautiful and in such a great location with close access to Philadelphia. Campus and residence life is such a great atmosphere with lots of opportunities to build community and get involved and there is always something to do on campus whether it's attend an event, go to a game, or join a club.
My time here at Eastern has been overall a great experience not just because of the beautiful campus but because of all the professors here on campus. Being a psychology major here I have grown to love the professors and the opportunities that they have given me in my four years here. I love the atmosphere of Eastern University because the students are always so nice and willing to help with anything that you might need. Being from Texas I thought that it would be really hard to get acclimated with a new State, town city, and friends but it was not. I can truly say that Eastern is my home away from home. I can't wait to continue to make more memories in my last year! Go Eagles !
