The Class sizes are small, so your professors actually have time to speak with you and get to know you. They (the profs.) also really care about seeing you succeed academically, and seem to genuinely love their jobs!
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The environment at Drew is AMAZING!! Everybody is really friendly and we're always happy to accept new people! Although we aren't a party school by any means we do have our fair share of fun parties that occur just about every weekend. If you aren't in to the party scene that's okay too, because there are plenty of places on campus for you to hang out friends or just be alone even. Aside from the people, the campus it's self is also pretty cool, It's basically surrounded by forest (our school's nickname is The University in the Forest). The wildlife on campus is like a 24 hour nature documentary, It's pretty entertaining. However if you want to spend a day outside of the campus it's a less than 10 minute walk into down town Madison NJ. and about a 45 minute train ride to NYC.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Academically, socially,and in-terms of location Drew is great. That being said it is also REALLY EXPENSIVE, This year's tuition is about $43,000.00 .for that expense you'd expect that the food would be better, however that is not the case! in fact the food at Drew is *cough* AWFUL *cough*, and despite student (and parent) outcry on the matter, and the availability of alternative food services companies the administration refuses to drop Aramark as our food provider. However if you can look past the food, cost, and administrative bureaucracy, Drew is an outstanding school in fun, friendly, and diverse environment. I can confidently say, from experience, most prospective students will really enjoy it here!
