While in high school I worked very had and took several AP courses. While that gave me an edge coming into college, I have still learned far more than I thought I would. The trick is that the professors have a way of making the material work for everyone in the class, whether you learn things very quickly or if you need just a little extra time Heidelberg has a way of giving everyone the chance to shine.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I wasn't even looking at Heidelberg University until I drove through it by accident having gotten lost on the way to Akron. When I saw the campus I knew that this was the place for me. It was almost like love at first sight, the feeling I got just being on the campus was so strong. Now having spent 3 years here I still get that feeling when I come back. Heidelberg has become home for me, the people you meet and the experiences you have are phenomenal. The dance team has become a large part of my life, but there are groups for every type of person on this campus, and none are closed off or uninviting. Heidelberg is like a big family.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
While attending Heidelberg is expensive there are so many ways to lighten the burden on your family. The amount of money that the school gives to students covers a large portion of the costs for many students. There are also many scholarships given out by the respective departments for students. A final way to help offset the cost are jobs on campus. Every building has jobs that students are able to apply for, some students even have two or three jobs on campus. With all of these options and the kind of attention you receive at Heidelberg, it is definitely worth the money.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Heidelberg is a very close knit kind of school, students leave their doors open, or just hang out in the halls. So don't be afraid to just come up and chat with people, you never know the kind of amazing people you might meet just by sitting down and joining a conversation. There is always time to have fun and get work done to, BEC and other groups on campus provide entertainment and social gatherings to help new students fin where they want to fit into campus. Take a chance and go see some comedian on campus, it is always a blast and all sorts of cool people will be there to hang out with.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Heidelberg has a little bit of everything, the music department is fabulous, some of the faculty are breathe taking to listen to, and the students are also so very talented. In the business department a new building has been revamped and dedicated to business studies. Across the way in the science building the biology department has some of the best classes to prepare students for medical school as well other science related fields. All around Heidelberg has very dedicated professors who make the departments outstanding for any student in any major.
