Tiffin is a great place, but I wish they would increase their staff and create harder curriculum. I often look for a challenge—a stressor if you’d like to say. Tiffin seems to hire professors who are very lenient when it comes to grading and other assignments. I don’t really get the struggle I’m wanting, but hey! Maybe it’s not the professors or the curriculum; maybe I’m just a really great student. ;)

Tiffin was the first university I went to, you become close to the majority of the people you will be graduating with since it is such a small school. The problems I had were many of the buildings are old and have limited to no A/C and I had professors that did not like if you missed the class due to sports or other extracurricular activities. You do get free printing in the majority of the buildings which was nice and all of the dorms had a community washer and dryer. My second year at Tiffin though when they were placing people in the dorms, it was a first come first serve situation until they switched their coordinator, which then became whomever was there friend got the best spots. Overall the school is decent, if you can handle a small town, this may be the school for you, it can be very personable, but just like every other place it has its on problem with school politics.
My first impresssion about Tiffin University was that it was broad on allowing student involvement openly in support of everyone’s needs on campus. They accommodate for students who are active in several organizations, sports, and programs all at once to aid in creating strong, credible resumes. More than anything, the faculty become like family as you work closely with them on a daily to weekly basis, accomplishing several goals. I’m so glad that I can call Tiffin my second home.
