As soon as I walked into five towns I was greeted happily by the administration and immediately given a tour of the school and campus. Soon after I actually met the president of the college shook his hand and he formally got to know me, this made me feel like the college had a very home like atmosphere. After giving the tour I am mediately applied and no more than two weeks later was excepted and my schedule has been made. Although I have not yet taken a class I am very excited for what the next few years will hold for me at five towns College!

Five Towns has excellent teachers, especially in the music department. They have recently begun trying to improve the schools facilities and appearance by planting flowers and revamping the schools radio station. There are many opportunities there for all kinds of interests. The only frustrations i had with the school were when I had to deal with registrar, bursar, or financial aid. These appointments tend to take too long and sometimes it seems that no one is informed.
My experience with Five Towns is pretty good. As a resident on campus, I like how hard the students try any and everything to make life better and more enjoyable. Even for those who do not reside on campus, they still join whatever festivities that may happen. One thing they might have to work on is reviewing the success of their events. If it was a popular success, then they should have more of it throughout the year.
