As a dual-sport student-athlete, I was met with a supportive community of teachers and coaches who wanted to see me succeed! I studied biology and entrepreneurship while playing soccer and throwing javelin. I had an amazing time at Walsh.

Thank you!

I like the atmosphere of this college. The scenery is very calming and helps get rid of my headaches and migraines. They also were able to transfer my high school and community college courses over into their academic system (although, I did have to remind them). I am part of a group that gives me a scholarship for four years, and I am interested in what we are doing. However, the students are light-headed and do not seem to have a clear mind about the issues plaguing our society. They also do not know (or care [probably]) about how these issues affect other people. Overall, this school is great and I have had great luck with getting some awesome professors. If you are thinking about investing or going to this school, you should do it. Be aware, though, that after your first year, you should attempt to find scholarships outside of the school, as well, in order to help with you education (especially if you are a minority).

Walsh is a great community and environment. The professors work personally with you to make sure you're understanding the material and actually learning, in turn making you more successful in the real world. The dorms have all been updated and are in pretty great condition. The freshman dorms don't have AC units yet, but it was never too bad. It's only really hot hot during August, then it cools into fall weather, and the campus is beautiful this time of year. The food could be better, but is manageable for college food. There are multiple gyms around campus which is really impressive for such a small school. I'm about halfway through my college experience at Walsh and I've been thoroughly pleased with the experience I've had here. If you like small class sizes, genuine professors who will know you by name and not just an ID number, this is the place for you.
