Great school
Overall 4.7
I love this campus. It's gorgeous, safe, the professors are approachable and helpful, tons of opportunity here! I transferred from a large uni, this was totally the right decision. Amazing dining hall, awesome clubs, you see the President of the college almost daily and the best part of all, THERE ARE DOGS EVERYWHERE ON CAPMUS AND IN CLASSROOMS!!

I love the downtown area and the town is so nice. The buildings on campus are BEAUTIFUL. The food could use some variation and a bit of improvement. PLEASE can we stop with the rosemary chicken? Let's find another allergy-free protein staple.

Overall 4.5
Love this school. Campus is about 40% athletes which makes it easier for me, an athlete, to connect with people. Parties are pretty good, but the bars around town are great. The school is small in ways that benefit you but big when you need it to be.

Best school ever.
Overall 4.5
I can't say what everyone will think of this school, but I'll just share my personal opinion. I love this school. It feels like home, it's beautiful, there's fun things to do on and around campus, I feel safe, and I love the students and faculty. If you are looking for a small liberal arts school with lots of opportunities consider MoCo!

The perfect school.

A VERY underrated institution.
Overall 4.4
For the graduate student, it's a nice to school to attend. Parking is close to classes, professors are easy to reach, and I've networked with other students. Class sizes are small and it's easy to talk to other students. The gym is nice place to go and it is relatively new.

No Diversity at all. Only people from Pennsylvania come here probably because their homes are near. I'm transferring out of here.
Overall 1.7
Very little to do socially. At first the food is good but it gets old fast, no variety. The people are very immature here and it is very expensive and sometimes impossible to go somewhere else (like the city) to get away from it all. Some LINC courses an absolute waste of time. Not nationally known, only regionally.
Overall 1.8
If you are thinking of attending this school, please, for your own benefit, reconsider. The quality of education is dismal, the professors care little for the well-being and understanding of their students, and the students are nothing beyond pompous children. It feels like a waste of time, and is much harder if you are one of the few commuters.

This school has absolutely no post graduation connections! They boast about their career center, but it is useless. Either they recommend working at an enterprise, or you get no relevant experience pertaining to your field of study. The tutoring center is even worse! I reached out for tutoring and literally got a response 8 months later! Terrible!
