Seton Hall University is the definition of a truly welcoming and positive campus. From the moment my tour guide brought me to the green, I knew I belonged here! The teachers are always willing to help you with any questions you may have, it's all about communication. Do not be afraid to ask for help! Also, the cafeteria has many different options for you to choose from, so that way if there are certain options that you may not particularly like, there are still many other options to choose from or that you can cook yourself! The school itself is not too big which is nice, and makes all of the buildings easily located and accessible. Overall, this campus provides so many opportunities both academic and social related, and the environment is so positive!
I am currently a senior at Seton Hall double majoring in Diplomacy and International Relations, and Economics. During my time at Seton Hall, I have been able to grow as a student and as a person. Being a diplomacy student, the small class sizes and emphasis on a discussion based course structure helped me get to know my fellow class mates and professors. Professors are knowledgeable and often have career experience which is a valuable resource, especially if you need recommendations. It also helped me become more comfortable at public speaking, which I was able to utilize more when I became involved in Model UN. There are many, diverse student run clubs and organizations you can become a part of; in which you meet new people and can eventually pursue a leadership position. Lastly, the Career Center helps student with resumes, applications, and interview practice, which helped me get an internship! Seton Hall gave me a supportive environment so I could pursue all of these things.
Seton Hall creates a vibrant and accepting atmosphere. There is a tone of student activity so it’s literally impossible to not get involved during your time here. The campus is small but beautiful, which makes it very efficient to walk to class. I also noticed that the diversity is increasing and I personally have met people from all over the nation! Couldn’t be happier with committing to Seton Hall. Go Pirates!
