University of Delaware Reviews
Rating 3.68 out of 5 3,585 reviews
I believe that the University of Delaware is a 4/5 star school for many reasons!
First and foremost, UD has a strong academic program. The professors are knowledgeable and engaging, and the course offerings are diverse and relevant. The school also has a number of resources available to help students succeed, including tutoring services, study groups, and writing centers.
In addition to academics, UD has a vibrant campus life. There are a plethora of clubs and organizations to get involved in, as well as sporting events, concerts, and other social activities. The school is located in a beautiful and historic town, which provides plenty of opportunities for exploration and enjoyment.
Despite these positives, the food on campus can be a bit of a disappointment. While there are a few dining options that are decent, many of the options are overpriced and not particularly tasty. The dining halls in particular often have limited and unappealing options, and the quality can be hit or miss.

When I was originally looking at colleges and universities the University of Delaware wasn’t even on my radar. It was only after a friend encouraged me to look at the school that I fell in love with it. The campus is picturesque and although there are close to 19,000 students it still feels big but not too big. The campus is flat but gorgeous and there is always something to do. More than 200+ clubs, D1 sporting activities and approximately 32% of UD students participate in Greek life. The quaint Main Street has lots of great food and shopping. You can take a car if you choose the entire 4 years or not at all because you can walk from one end of the campus to the other easily. The food at the dining halls is actually really good but it’s also nice to have a Chick-Fil-A on campus too. I am majoring in biochemistry and the science department at UD is world renowned and has even had two Nobel prize recipients over the years, one a UD professor and one a UD alumni. I’m so happy UD is home!
I am currently a choral music education major at the University of Delaware and I love it. The friends I have made are absolutely incredible and I felt so at home. Academically, I am learning so much and consistently am pushing myself to be the best I can. The school provides many opportunities to further students not only academically, but socially as well! My professors are extremely understanding and consistently keep us engaged in classes. I could not recommend this university more.
