Bridgewater is a great community to get involved in! Just be you and don't be afraid to stick out, there are many people just like you! Over all it's a wonderful family to become apart of!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Make sure your applications are in on time!!! That will give you the best chance of getting the most scholarships!!! Also talk with students from there who are studying in your field, this will help to give you a sense of what professors you'll need as well as internships available for you!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The professors are always able to help even when they aren't at the college. They are their to aide you and provide assistants when you think it's needed.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The dorm life is amazing! My freshman year I stayed in Geisert Hall (all girls) and i have to admit it turned out way better than I thought! The resident advisors' there are extremely friendly and have struggled through their first year as well, so don't be afraid to ask for help!
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The food is great you just have to look at the menu first to decide where you'll want to eat. The KCC (main dining hall) is actually changing a lot of the food options around to help assist us with making better food choices.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Anything! Bridgewater has tons of intramural sports as well as clubs/activities! The best part about it is that you don't even have to be involved in the club to be invited because they send invites to the whole campus! We have corn hole, volleyball, soccer, football all the good stuff year round! Even better for us girls is the shopping mall right down the road in Harrisonburg!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Since it's a Liberal Arts College you'll get exactly what you want from it! There is a huge difference between a regular University and a Liberal Arts College. The education gained from Bridgewater will help you pursue and achieve a life beyond your expectations! There is no doubt that you could get any more from Bridgewater than you are given!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
All of the traditions on campus have a meaning to them from earlier graduates or Presidents (of the college). However, they all are important to the students because it's what defines us as Bridgewater students.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
The Pre-Med Society is great for all Chemistry, Biology or Biochemistry students! It helps provide insight on your near future and it allows you to ask previous graduates of Bridgewater what they're doing now!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There is no way Bridgewater doesn't have a club you want! Even if they did you actually have the chance to make a new one!!!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Unfortunately there isn't any Greek Life on campus, but you can always join the club for it!
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
The only safety consern you need to worry about might be getting chased by a cow! The safety on campus is amazing and the best system I've seen by far! The chief of police is there for you 110% no matter the time or day!
