Paul Quinn is an outstanding school a college located in South Dallas, but outstanding in academics and student life. Being a private school the student to teacher ratio is perfect small classes and the teacher knows every student. Sports just started in this college so they are not that great as other colleges, but they will soon get their. The experience is wonderful and I encourage high school student or students that are looking to transfer to always take a look at this small private institution.
Review Paul Quinn College
Paul Quinn College is a family oriented school that makes you feel welcomed and at home from the beginning of your school journey until the end. Always a fun event on campus to participate in, and very affordable institution. Very strong on helping students with academics, and making sure they understand classroom materials. The WE/(over)me slogan states that you won't ever have to worry about just yourself in this school, we are all in this together.
I truly love Paul Quinn College. Everyone is extremely supportive of one another. Paul Quinn really prepares its students for life after graduation. I'm truly proud to be a part of the Quinnite Nation and I'm looking forward to graduating in the next couple of years!
