Review of Defiance College

Describe your college in three sentences.

Defiance is a small town, but you can always find something to do. On campus there is a ton of things to get involved with. Also, most of the students that go here are athletes, so you can always play pick up games.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

I suggest getting involved in as many things as possible, many give you the opportunity for additional scholarship money, and it helps you meet new people.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

As far as academics go DC is great. The classes are always small so the professors can give you one on one attention. The professors are also very easy to get along with and generally will work with you to keep your grades up.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Life around the dorms is really what you make of it. If you want to have fun you will always find it, DC has some really crazy fun people. The rooms aren't bad at all, like any other school you'll have trouble figuring out how to pack all your belongings into it, but all the furniture moves so you can rearrange it how ever you want. It's really nice.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The food on campus really isn't that bad. The simple fact is it's cafe food and it gets boring eventually. They always have a good variety though and offer vegetarian alternatives. The food around town is great. It's a small town, but there are a lot of choices to eat out at.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

In the actual town there isn't that much. We have a movie theater and a lot of parks. There is also a river and a reservoir right in town. Defiance is less than an hour away form Toledo, Fort Wayne, and Bowling Green so there are a lot of things to do there from shopping to clubbing.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Defiance is a great choice for people from small towns . The campus is really small and every one knows each other, We're like a little family. Plus the president loves to have guests so if you know you're going to miss home it's great. Also, if you're an athlete Defiance is great most of the campus are athletes and it's a good spot for people to come.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Defiance offers a wide range of clubs, I couldn't even explain how many there are. No matter what you do I'm positive DC has a club for you.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Defiance has good security, they have people patrol the campus pretty much all night. There are also people at the front desks in the dorms until three or four in the morning. They even offer safe rides for people that have been drinking with no questions. They really care about us here and want us safe no matter what.
