Review of Augustana College

from IL

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

I feel like I have learned a lot at my time at Augustana. The professors really strive to challenge you as you advance your education. They make you take responsibility for your education and in this way, you gain so much knowledge.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I definitely am enjoying my time here at Augustana. There are always many events occurring on campus and the college strives for your involvement in these events. They want people to get out there and enjoy themselves.

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

Although it is an expensive school, there is no limit when it comes to education. This school puts a lot of important on the liberal arts education it provides, and I believe this is what makes it a bang for the buck. This liberal arts education teaches you not only the topics of your major, but it teaches you many other subjects in order to help you become a more well rounded adult.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

If you plan on attending here, do not be hesitant to get out there. Get involved in the school and the school will literally be like your home. Don't be afraid to get help when you need it, there are so many resources here to make sure you do succeed so take advantage of them. In your classes, make sure to give each class the attention it deserves and do not be hesitant to ask your professors questions. Everyone is very helpful and open to answering any questions you may have.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

This school is great for those students that like a more close knit type of school. It is not a very large school, so you end up knowing and meeting a lot of people because of the schools size. There is a lot of nature on the campus, so it is perfect for those students that do not really like city life too much.
