I love Newberry because it is a small school and community where everybody knows each other and it's not at all overwhelming like a bigger school would be. You feel like family at Newberry with your professors, your advisors and your teammates. ( I play soccer). It also feels safe to be at Newberry, you never hear about bad things happening there like you do at bigger campuses. I am looking forward to my next 3 years at Newberry!
Review Newberry College
I love how Newberry has allowed me to schedule my day the way I want it. There are some days that I have classes in the morning right in a row, and then the rest of the day is mine to do what ever I need to. Or, there are some days where my classes are spread far apart and I have large breaks to grab lunch, hang with friends, work on homework, or even sometimes, take a nap!I love the freedom that I gained when I left home, but it does take some responsibility and a huge adjustment. But, after getting it down to a science, all it takes is a good head on your shoulders and some time management skills.
Yes I understand that Newberry College is a small school however, is uniquely personalized for each student that decides to attend Newberry. With the smaller classes the professors make sure that each student is not only getting the material but comprehending the material. They are also very available most of the time if you have other questions out side of the classroom. Being an athlete at Newberry will not stop you towards earning your degree. Schedules are planed around games, practices and competitions; therefore your professors and on board with your schedule.
