Review of Delaware Valley University

from Quakertown, PA

Describe your college in three sentences.

DVC is a wonderful school if you are an animal major and like a country environment close to a city. The people here really do care for each other and the hands-on experience is incredible. Everyone can find a program to join here without trying hard.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Bring your science class notes from your previous schools and remember to relax.

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

When it comes to sciences just remember, this is a science and agriculture-based school: expect a challenge.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Tiny but always welcoming is the only way I can describe dorm life at DVC.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The food is fresh and varied, coming right from our farms if not locals. The Pub and the Market will come in Handy for a good treat.

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

We are close enough to Doylestown for shopping and day/night events. There are concerts, performers, comedians, etc. on campus year-round too. But the day we work towards is our giant county fair type event called A-Day in the spring: a day you cannot forget.

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

Expect a quiet campus with city athletes and cowboys/cowgirls hanging out together, unforgettable professors, and impressive animals.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Talk to the Ram in front of the Student Center, help with A-Day, and relax by Lake Archer.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Anyone who likes one-on-one professors even in a larger lecture group.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Name a club or activity and if we don't have it, we can start it up here. Ranging from rock-climbing to community services to circus stunts on horses to 4H to drama, we have it all at DVC.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

We may have a small Greek Life but almost everyone is friends and most of our own Greeks never thought they would ever join the very false stereotype.

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

You can easily feel safe on our quiet campus and will most likely become friends with our wonderful security staff just passing them on rounds.
