Review of College of Saint Benedict

from Minneapolis, MN

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

Yes, it is true that I am learning, though it is hard. I am majoring in Nursing, but people don't give up when I say it is hard. Of course, everywhere that you go will be hard, but never give up. That is the statement for myself Never Give Up. Honestly, I believe that if you really is passionate about what you want to become or the career you choose, you can do it. The first semester was hard for me, but I made it through. However, I didn't pass by Biology course to continue on my nursing planned course, but there are still many option for me to choose and continue my path. I am still passionate about nursing, though I know that I am just taking my journey a different route before I come back to my dream. As I would say is that you will learn a lot if you choose to, but if not, you will say that you did not learn a thing.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

There are so many opportunities here that you have no clue which one to start with. It is your choice to the path that you want to take and many clubs that you choose to participate. I always believe that things will always be fun if you make it fun and enjoyable.

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

Private college will have a higher cost of tuition, but don't worry. There are many scholarships, grants, and loans out there in the world to support and help you through college. It is your choice if you want to apply for them scholarship, grant or loans. I didn't think that I can pay for the tuition at College of Saint Benedict, but I did. I have apply and apply to as many scholarship as I can and I made it. I don't even have to pay for my first year in college. However, I am worried about my sophomore year in college, but I know that there are many scholarship out there. I just need to find it and apply. Everything depends on yourself if you work hard for it or become lazy and get to pay the full tuition out of your pocket and loans.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

One of the best tip is to have fun and study hard. I'll advice anyone who is having trouble in class, should immediately seek help from their professor. As you may already have heard from other college students' saying that don't be afraid to speak to your professor. Also if you need more time on tests or need a tutor to help you on any course subject, all you need to do is ask. Asking others to help you is very supportive and makes life a lot easier if you need help just ask. Also when you are at College of Saint Benedict take all the adventure you have and just remember to balance your time. College is all about time management, too. If you are heading to college, too, hope you will choose the school that you feel it is right for you.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

I would say that this school is great for any students who want to attend small size class. It is a good school and I believe all colleges are good, but everyone who decided to attend whatever college they choose will still have to study hard and have fun. As long as you are committed and know that this school is your passion college ,after reviewing the class size and knowing that it is private college, than it is the right one for you.
