Review of Georgian Court University

from Jackson, NJ

Describe your college in three sentences.

i would rate georgian court university a 9 on a scale of 10 being the best. when i had transferred to gcu, i was treated with the up-most respect and my needs were accommodated. having been at gcu only two months, my experience here has been amazing because of the environment, staff and instructors.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

i would suggest to do your research and explore what gcu has to offer. gcu is truly a great school for students to grow and develop into successful individuals. they offer many different organizations and clubs and i would suggest to seek out these clubs when considering applying. the campus is beautiful and very inspiring and motivational, i would suggest to visit the campus asap!

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

academics are valued highly at gcu and the instructors expect students to perform highly academically.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

unfortunately i am a off-campus student but i have spent time in the dorms with friends and it is a very clean and cozy place!

Describe the food and dining at your college.

the first time i ate at gcu i was in love because they offer so much food and they are all healthy for a low price.

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

gcu has so many events going on that there is always something to do. i recently won tickets to the winter formal which was at ramada inn and it was wonderful! they always have free events and offer food and beverages, sporting events and more. gcu is close to the jersey shore and great shopping mall areas!

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

i think compared to other institutions i seeked out, gcu tuition in not bad. they also offer scholarships which really helps out.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

what allured me to gcu is its beautiful campus. this campus was originally a millionaire railroad owner's land and a lot of the buildings and statues throughout the campus have remained the same. there are tall trees and a lake right behind the campus.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

i think this is great for all students. gcu is a catholic school so students that are interested in campus ministry clubs would love it. they have mass every week on campus so you don't have to leave if you don't have a car.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

there are many activities and clubs, too many to name. everyone is so friendly that even if you are a freshman or a transfer student, they make the transition experience great.

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

the campus has guarded gates all around. i also live about 5 minutes away from the campus and the campus in in lakewood border of howell nj, which is a very safe area.
