Review of Elon University

from Henderson, NC

Describe your college in three sentences.

Elon University is a school that offers a range of opportunities. If you love being engaged, and getting hands on access then this is the school for you. They do everything they can to help you succeed and follow your dreams.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Maintain a high G.P.A. in high school, but also try be involved. They love seeing when someone is involved in their community. Get all that they asked for turned in on time and make sure that it is neat and organized.

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

They take it very seriously. If you fall below a 2.0, you're on probation and they work with you to bring it up. They expect you to do as well if not better. While some people get by easy, the professors do give a lot of work and sometimes not that much, but still, do your best regardless.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Vast dorms to choose from and each is just as beautiful as the first. Always making changes and improving the dorms for the safety of the students.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Wide selection of food everyday. The menu changes everyday, and they also have a few hot spots on campus such as Chick Fil A, Freshii, Buscuitville, and a restaurant that acts like a substitute for Chipotle.

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

Bingo nights, trivia nights, movie nights, Coffee every Tuesday morning where students and teachers get together. If you're majoring in the media, we have TV shows and programs operated by students and creating your own website.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

For students to want to work and be engaged; however, if you want diversity then this not the school for you. It is PWI, which stands for a Predominately White Institution. But not all hope is lost, you do get to meet amazing individuals every now and then, and it's funny meeting people with different cultures and backgrounds.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Very strong here; however, you don't have to be in it to have fun and make friends.
