McDaniel provides a welcoming atmosphere for students of all colors, gender identities, sexual orientations, etc. They make you feel like an individual. You won't regret attending! Go, Terror!
Thing about McDaniel is you have to love the small school and understand that it is in a rural area of town. I love McDaniel. I met my husband here and we both love it. If you want a small college feel where everyone knows your name, the best academics, and great friendships, McDaniel is your college!
I was undecided which college I wanted to go to, but that all changed after I attended the McDaniel College’s Admitted Students Day Event. This event gave me a family like environment exposure from the campus atmosphere to the friendliness of the students and professors throughout the day. They had agendas that gave me an overview of school and campus life. The panels of students sharing their experience also allowed me to envision what student life on campus can be like away from home. I was able to meet professors’ of majors I was interested in studying and they discussed courses they teach, their teaching styles, and expectations. They also discussed how the classes will prepare you in the future. I also enjoyed hearing the alumni share their experience at McDaniel College and after graduating. This whole experience helped me solidify my decision to attend McDaniel College. This school does not limit what you can accomplish with the major or minor you pick.
