Sophomore: I really enjoyed my time there! There are a lot of events for different types of people, like women and non-binary rock-climbing events, Asian student get-togethers, community fast breaking for Muslim students, Questbridge scholar movie nights, and many more. One thing I would like to see change is better advertisement and outreach for extracurriculars and clubs. Other than during Splash, it is difficult to see what kinds of different groups are doing and if you can join.... Read 3,583 reviews

Senior: Gordon has a phenomenal Kinesiology department. The professors really make an effort to get to know each student and build a relationship with them. Gordon College is also one of the few undergraduate schools in which offer cadaver labs. This is the big thing that made me choose this school! Many undergraduate programs offer pro-section cadaver labs. Gordon College, however, allows students to dissect themselves! This college has prepped me significantly for graduate school....

Junior: UMass Dartmouth is a decent school. Everything about it is pretty good, if not better than than! The only things that could use any work would be the professors (seeing as some have thick accents, and others aren't the best at their jobs; but a majority are) and the dorms (seeing as there is no cooling in Sophomore dorms, which is a pain). The rest of the school and the experience there is, as said, good! While not a partier, there are a lot of parties that I've seen/heard about. The area around it is one that I've been in for most of my life. There are lots of stores, and a lot of food options if you don't like the food at the Grove (dining hall), Starbucks, Wendy's, the knock-off Subway, the ramen place, or the pizza place! There are many clubs and activities a few of which I've checked out an been part of. All of those experiences have been good. I have always felt safe on campus as well, as you should. Lastly, the most important art of college, the academics..which are amazing!... Read 1,150 reviews

Sophomore: Good environment, Boston is really fun to live in. Most things are in walking distance and if not, the greenline or bus are available and affordable. Classes are involved and professors are helpful, experienced and knowledgeable. In my sophomore year currently, and having got into three other art schools/programs, I’m glad I went here!...

Freshman: My experience at Bridgewater State University as a Secondary Education Major with a focus on Physical Education and as a student-athlete has been enriching. I appreciate the comprehensive curriculum that combines theoretical knowledge with practical teaching skills. The supportive faculty members have been instrumental in my growth, providing guidance and mentorship. As a student-athlete, I value the opportunities to excel in both soccer and basketball while managing academics. The athletic program fosters teamwork and discipline. The school has phenomenal resources allocated to the athletic department, including upgraded facilities and expanded training opportunities. Overall, Bridgewater State University has provided a well-rounded education, but enhancing the athletic resources would further enhance the student-athlete experience.... Read 1,205 reviews

Sophomore: Westfield State University has provided me with a quality education at an affordable price. As someone who wants to go to graduate school, I knew that I did not want to be burdened by debt. Thanks to the financial aid at WSU, I will be able to graduate debt-free! Beyond affordability, WSU has allowed me to access incredible opportunities both inside and outside of the classroom, whether through clubs and organizations or our Career Center, which was able to help me find an internship after my first year! Faculty and staff truly care about the student experience, and administrators (including President Linda Thompson) are always attending events across campus and are visible to the community. Some of our most popular events include the Spring Concert, Family Weekend, Homecoming, trips to the Big E & NYC, and bingo! Westfield State truly provides a quality education at an affordable price while giving you access to an exciting college experience.... Read 907 reviews

Freshman: As a freshman at Anna Maria College, I could not be more thrilled to be here. This college has so much to offer its students, from outstanding professors who genuinely care about their students' academic achievement to the wide variety of organizations and activities that are open to everyone. The sense of community on campus is one of Anna Maria College's greatest strengths. As a result of everyone's friendliness and openness, I have no trouble making friends here. Additionally, the professors make an attempt to get to know each student individually during class, demonstrating their genuine concern for us as people. Communication between professors and students could be improved; it can occasionally be challenging to obtain.... Read 261 reviews

Senior: I really enjoyed my time at Salem State University! The campus is very accessible and there are many convenient parks, beaches and stores within walking distance. I am personally a huge fan of Halloween, making Salem, MA the perfect location for me! It was amazing being able to walk downtown in the Halloween capital of the world during the month of October. I am also a member of the women’s basketball team, making my connection to the school even stronger.... Read 1,207 reviews

Alum: Overall, I had a great experience at Montserrat. I loved the teachers and staff dearly and made a lot of great connections. You are right on the beach, a short walk from the T, with lots of local shops and cafes that are familiar with the Montserrat Community. For any person looking to get an education at a small school, this is the place. The buildings and campus felt manageable, especially for someone who was overwhelmed at the very thought of getting lost on a big campus. The college experience is not perfect- whether it is problems with peers, roommate troubles, or bad critics, but none of these problems are Montserrat specific and reflect an overall problem with colleges in general....
