I visited Seton Hill University during my high school senior year. My visit included overnight lodging, meals, but most importantly inclusion in several classes I was interested in taking. I decided this was the place I wanted to obtain my degree. While I spent four semesters at community college, all of my credits transferred to Seton Hill. My advisers have been very helpful in making decisions to class schedule and career choices. This is an older campus with great atmosphere. It was very to transition from community college to university. I plan on obtaining an Art Education degree and am taking full advantage of a three year old arts building which contains not only art studios, but studios for dance. I would strongly advise anybody to include Seton Hill University on their must see.

Honestly, my experience at Seton Hill has not been that great. I do not enjoy myself at Seton Hill. The Greensburg area is not the type of area that I would like to further immerse myself in. One thing I do actually enjoy about Seton Hill is the overall love for Christmas!
Seton Hill is a very good university. It is a very small school, but you are able to connect with professors and faculty very easily. My first semester has been really great! There is not much to do in the immediate area, but if you drive for a few minutes there are things to do!
