I've gone to this school for 3 years and Its the worst decision I could've ever made, I'm stuck here til I graduate though cause my credits won't transfer. I can go on forever listing bad things about this place.
Overall 1.7
Bethany College isn't what a lot of people say it is. The dorms aren't the best, the campus needs work and if you want stuff to do on the weekends this isn't the place for you. People here are nice around Lindsborg but don't really support the college as much as they say they do. Bethany cost way to much for the little they have to offer.
