Albion is a small, liberal arts school with excellent science and pre-health programs as well as psychology, education, business, and others. The professors are mostly all wonderful, with a few not-so-great. Greek life is huge, and there's always something going on on-campus.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Come visit! I knew as soon as I visited that this was the school for me. You really get a sense of the community and life at Albion.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Classes are pretty tough (though it varies by major). But it prepares you for the real world (or graduate school!). And professors are always available and willing to work with you, so definitely take advantage of their office hours!
Describe the dorm life at your college.
All freshmen live in the same dorm, which really helps you meet people and form friendships. Options for upper classmen are pretty good, considering that Albion is TINY. Of course, no dorms are glamorous, but that's college, right?
*note: it's really hard to get off-campus housing unless you live nearby or have a serious medical condition.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The options around town are pretty limited, but there are a few local gems.
The dining hall is pretty good most days, and always has gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options. If you have a dietary issue, you can talk to the manager, and they will always have something for you.
Also, breakfast in the dining hall is awesome. Even lazy college kids get up before their 8am classes to enjoy it.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
The Union Board has an event almost every weekend (free for students!). They also have a free shuttle to the local movie theater which offers free movies and cheap popcorn to students. Partying at the frat houses is also pretty big.
