Every day includes significant academic lessons from class and life lessons from peers. The professors give their all to the education of their students and make themselves available for help outside of the class for course-work questions, and for help with student research.
Outside of the class, ones peers push to help each other grow into the best young men and women that they can be.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I began looking at colleges as a freshman in high school. I am thankful that my dad had me start searching early as it allowed for a significant amount of time to determine what was actually important to me in a college.
Benedictine College stands out to me for the incredible community on campus. New students become a part of this Raven Family during their orientation week where a family away from home is needed. The students here are supportive in schoolwork and friendships, through thick and thin. They strive to find healthy and productive activities that will enrich the student-life on campus in a way that promotes their growth as young adults in this world.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
As this is a private liberal arts school, it is more expensive than other forms of education such as a state or community college. Yet, if you are ready to apply yourself, this school is worth every penny. At Benedictine College you receive a rounded education, one that does not only focus on your intended major (which could easily change anyway), but rather provides a working knowledge of mathematics, science, theology, psychology, history, language, and the arts. This provides a nice supportive base for the major the student decides upon. These skills are important for a career, but are even more important skills for leading a successful everyday life.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
My advice to you is to start looking early so that you have time to look at a wide variety of schools to determine the best fit for you. Last minute decisions can lead to misfits and unfortunate college experiences.
It is also important to visit the schools you are looking at to determine if they really are what they say. In this case, I visited Benedictine College and found that it was even more perfect for me than it had seemed online. I fell in love with the school from the moment I stepped off the plane. The staff at Benedictine were wonderful hosts and the students were so welcoming that I felt like a part of the family within a few hours. By the time I was leaving a couple of days later, I felt like I was leaving a second home.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Benedictine College is perfect for anyone who wants a good education in a wonderful, solid, supportive, truly Catholic environment.
This college is great for anyone who is serious about their education, but also desires to put effort into the community. It is the place to become the best individual you can be, within a supportive environment, in order to learn how to change the world.
