Review of Augustana College

from Thomasboro, IL

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

The classes are challenging but i love knowing that I'll use everything I'm learning. There are so many different classes you can take, even a Harry Potter class! Everything I learn sparks my interest and makes me want to take more classes in that area! The teachers are amazing and so helpful and always willing to put in the extra effort if you are as well.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

There's always something going on and every weekend is so much fun, especially when you're always meeting new people. There's so much to do off campus as well.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

The education you get here at Augie is way above that of a school with 15,000 people. Class sizes are small, professors actually remember your name, and the resources are amazing. It's also a perk that the dorm rooms are about twice the size of the average room. Yeah, we're a little spoiled here.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Definitely get involved in something that you've always wanted to do but never had the chance. If you don't like it, at least you can say you've tried. Speak up in your classes, those are the ones that you end up having the most fun in.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Goal oriented, driven, enthusiastic people are EVERYWHERE on campus. It's definitely a fit for those who don't just want to be another face in the crowd.
