Johnson & Wales University Providence Campus not only has a beautiful campus incorporated with many cultures, but it also has a wide variety of opportunities. The professors at this school are extraordinary people with a lifetime of experience in all different fields to share. In addition the many clubs and organizations on campus allow for great internship and networking opportunities.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Due to the fact that Johnson & Wales using the trimester system, the course load is spread out differently. Every class is about two hours long, and labs are about 4 hours long and a new term starts every 2 1/2 - 3 months. The material is covered a lot faster allowing students to only need to take 3 classes a trimester to graduate on time. Of course depending on the major you choose the academic difficulty fluctuates. However, overall the classes are not hard if you remain engaged in class and meet all the requirements and manage your time according.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The dorm life a Johnson and Wales is by far an entirely different experience. The freshman dorms are where you meet a good majority of your friends on campus and you make the most memories. McNulty and Snowden Hall are the biggest freshman dorms and are the cleanest/ newest, while Xavier Hall is not he other side of campus and very outdated. Regardless of where you live, the experience is always what you make of it. I lived in Xavier hall, what most consider to be the worst on campus and I meet some amazing people and had a wonderful freshman year dorm experience.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
While most campus's have a dinning hall or two, Johnson & Wales has a Dinning Hall on the down city campus and one on the Harboside campus. In addition to both dining hallS, JWU offers a variety of other dining options to keep your meal plan from being repetitive. These places include, Red Sauce (italian style food), BYOB (Build your own burrito), City Burger (burgers and fries), Starbucks, and Market Place (a full market of snacks and pre-made foods)
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There is always something to do either on or off campus when attending the JWU Providence Campus. Events are always held in Gaebe Commons by greek life and other organizations as well as Wildcat Carnivals held on the harborside campus. Being in providence there is always something going on near by including water fire, and art shows.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Greek life at Johnson & Wales University Providence campus is unlike anything i have ever experienced. With so many Sororities and Fraternities on campus, it is almost like we have our own little community. Every organization on campus does whatever they can to support each other especially when it comes to fundraising for our philanthropies. The friends made within Greek life (including Alumni) become a great way to network and find job or internship opportunities all over.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Campus safety and security have a joint station with the Providence Police Department located right in the middle of campus. At all hours of the night there are safety and security driving around campus and they are always involved when they need to be.
