Review of Eastern University

from Herkimer, NY

Describe your college in three sentences.

Eastern University is one of the best options out there for prospective Christian college students. I am still struggling to find something that I DON'T like! Eastern ensures quality education, memories, and spiritual growth.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Feel free to contact any department or student at Eastern! There are Explore Eastern weekends featuring speakers, tours, and more, and I highly recommend them. Remember to do well in your current studies, and look forward to your time (even if it's just a visit) at Eastern!

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

I love that the academics stretch my understanding and expand my knowledge. Meanwhile, the workload is completely reasonable!

Describe the dorm life at your college.

There is something wonderful and warming about every single residence hall. The sense of community is excellent, and I would gladly live anywhere on campus!

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The food services offer a variety of healthy and delicious options, and there are plenty of well paying job opportunities for new students too!

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

There are always awesome activities put on by both the students and the university that are great for bonding with other students. There are a lot of great recreational options within walking distance of the campus as well!

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

This school is very reasonably priced for everything it offers!

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

The one thing everyone has to see while being on Eastern's campus is the historical water wheel! It is gorgeous, and compliments the mansions that the campus was built upon. The main student center is built on the old mansion of a philanthropist named Charles Walton. Within these mansions are places to study, and explore, and relax!

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Eastern is so diverse that just about anyone can find their place there. It's so neat to be with a mix of people than come together in one area and accomplish goals together, especially in the loving setting that Eastern has.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There is something for everyone, and everyone is encouraged to participate in the many activities! Whether you like the outdoors, art, charities, theater, dance, or any number of things, there is absolutely bound to be a club that you will love!

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

While there aren't any Greek fraternities or sororities, there are many clubs and organizations that have Greek Life-like characteristics. For example, many sports teams have their own buildings that they live in, and there are a lot of community service oriented clubs. There are also gender specific groups in which you can bond with a close group of girls or guys called Grow Groups. They are bound to be your brothers or sisters for life!

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

Eastern's campus security is top of the line. Not only does everyone feel safe, but the security guards go out of their way to help students get from place to place, unlock buildings, and maintain order.
