Sophomore: Rockhurst was amazing right off the bat! Being an incoming freshman, it was certainly a nerve racking feeling. However, the schools orientation threw all of those doubts out the window. We participated in a 3-4 day orientation that got us familiar with the school and all of its option. But the best part of orientation was the friendships that were made. At first it felt awkward but by the end I wanted to call them my family. I got exposed to my friend group on day one and couldn’t be happier. Student life is amazing too! With it being a smaller school, it is super easy to get connected with others and get involved. With the smaller class rations, you get to feel a connection with your teachers and classmates like nowhere else. The teachers want you to learn and are willing to help in areas you may be struggling. This was a much needed aspect during COVID this past year with all the chaos. RU did a great job of managing everything during the pandemic for things to run like butter... Read 414 reviews

Junior: My experience at UMKC has been excellent! I have met a lot of new people. I am also a part of a few organizations. For example, I am on the executive board of The Association of Latin American Students(ALAS). ALAS helps the student body find a place to be them self and express their ethnicity. I am also part of the Multicultural Student Affairs office(MSA). If I was not apart in any of this clubs and organizations I wouldn't have courage I have now to engage in my all academic activities.... Read 1,406 reviews

Senior: My experience here is second to none. I have gone to quite a few colleges and this is the first one where I felt I was more than a number. There are plenty of resources on campus from mental health, physical health, and academic. There are more than just the professors having a hand in the students’ academic success. There was a time where one of my mind-term grades were low and I received a email from student success wanting to set up a meeting to discuss how we can get the grade up and the tools that I have available to me. Although it was due to a professor forgetting to put in a grade, it meant a lot to know that everyone cares. The reason it did not get 5 starts is because I wish there were updates to the campus overall, specifically the student fitness center.... Read 432 reviews

Freshman: My freshman experience as a civil engineering student at William Jewell College has been transformative, shaping my academic and professional aspirations. The challenging curriculum, supportive faculty, and hands-on learning opportunities have fueled my passion for engineering. While I appreciate the strengths of the program, I also believe that improvements in facilities, internship support, industry connections, and diversity and inclusion efforts would further enhance the educational experience for civil engineering students. As I embark on my journey as an engineer, I am grateful for the foundation I have built at William Jewell College and eagerly anticipate the growth and opportunities that lie ahead....
