Junior: Appalachian Bible College focuses on training Christians to spread the gospel effectively. Because the college is relatively small, student life is unique to ABC. All the students know each other by name, and the professors genuinely care about their students and take time to get to know them!... Read 89 reviews

Sophomore: My experience with these university classes has been a positive one. I have taken 6 online classes from American public universities, and I have found them to be well-organized, easy to follow, and convenient. The professors are responsive and helpful, the curriculum is challenging but not overwhelming, and the workload is manageable. There are some things to keep in mind when considering an online class: you will need to be organized and disciplined for it to be successful; you must make sure your internet access is reliable; and if you take an online class alongside other classes or a job, you must allow yourself enough time each week to complete all of your assignments. Overall, I highly recommend taking an online class if you can find one that fits your needs!... Read 2,852 reviews

Sophomore: This is an institution that I would highly recommend to everyone! The campus itself is beautiful and smaller than others, allowing for easy navigation. The campus life is also great. Campus life schedules activities for students throughout the school year for all students. Our academics are the perfect balance of fun, engaging, and intelectually challenging. The professors are always available via email, and then if you need additional help you can ask for an appointment and they will meet with you one on one to help you individually....

  Rating 3.53 out of 5  293 reviews

Sophomore: Davis and Elkins College is located in a rural and unpopulated town in West Virginia. This is somewhat nerve racking to those who are international students and those who come from across the country to further their education and athletics, but at D&E everyone is family. The student body is super connected and encouraging of one another, also very inclusive and diverse. You know everyone on campus and will never go a day without a couple friendly conversations and fun memories. One thing that is a little disappointing is the college is located in such an unpopulated area, so there might not always be an event being advertised or talked about that is happening locally. Do not fret, although something may not be advertised there is always an adventure awaiting in the hills of the wild and wonderful West Virginia. My dad found and started his family here and I have found those I would call family as well. If you are looking for a tight knit campus community D&E is the place for you.... Read 293 reviews

  Rating 3.35 out of 5  247 reviews

Junior: I am an athlete on the track team at Wheeling University from Michigan and I love it! I love how at home I feel at Wheeling. Everyone is so supportive and genuinely wants to see everyone succeed, including the professors, coaches, and students. It is easy to connect with others and create relationships that will last a lifetime. The students are mostly athletes and the professors are very understanding of sporting events and the lives of student-athletes. Wheeling Univesity is a very tight-knit community where you can get the support, guidance, or help you might need. I feel very safe on campus and have met incredible people all over the world. It is easy to get involved on campus through different clubs or activities happening often. I feel prepared to either continue my education or get a job after graduation. As a Catholic campus, Wheeling Univesity is the perfect place to grow spiritually, academically and learn about yourself while connect with others!... Read 247 reviews
