WOU's small campus in Monmouth, Oregon, fosters a close-knit community, making it easy to form meaningful connections with peers and faculty. WOU offers extracurricular activities, support services, and on-campus housing options enrich your college experience, while the university's location in the Pacific Northwest provides opportunities for outdoor adventures.

Freshman: I would recommend Corban University with the highest regard. My time here thus far, has been invigoration, challenging, and comforting. I have found that on a smaller campus, I can connect with others and feel seen. All of my professors know me by name care about the subjects they are teaching, and care that I learn it. In addition to this, while being small, Corban has a vibrant student life. There are plenty of activities to attend, and clubs to join for people of varying interests.

Freshman: Willamette has a really welcoming, accepting, and friendly community of smart students! Everyone I've met has been super friendly and kind, and the professors and primarily quite understanding and good at teaching. The food is superior to other colleges food, but that said, it's still not as good as homemade food. But the food is solidly okay. They're amazing at giving accommodations through AES office, and it's very easy to apply and understand the process.... Read 854 reviews
