Review of LaGrange College

from Dexter, GA

Describe your college in three sentences.

Lagrange College is a very friendly, but academic worried school. The community surrounding the school is very wm and inviting with a lot to do with other cultural understanding. Very helpful staff here.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Know things you are interested in. Time management is important. Know of you are an evening, night, or morning person because it will help you know what times to take you classes. Go out in meet people because at first everyone is nervous. Do your homework before going out not after because you will keep putting it off. Do community service you will feel the gratification.Know if you want a small or big school. Make sure that the school you want to go to.

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

Academics are really important here. It is not at all a party school. Yes, there will be parties but make sure you do your work because you will be kicked out if you are not making the grades. The teachers are great because they will try to help you with understanding the work and you can e-mail them to get help. They also give you their numbers if you need them later in the day. Also the school provides you with all these chances to get help in other ways with tutoring and events for learning.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Dorm life is great. Everybody pretty much lives on campus. There are rooms like apartment, hotel suites, and then some has personal kitchens. Plus you get free Wi-Fi and cable. Also you resident advisors give your great advice on what to do about certain situations and are avaible when every you need them. They are so friendly and aproachable. Living on campus has it rules but is really fun because you have events like BURPS which was a party were everyone goes onto the hill and get wet, throws shaving cream, and just relaxes after a long day of classes. Also when you go don your laundry it is free you are not paying for the washing or drying but you are doing it yourself. Also depending on where you live on campus you never 10 minutes away from class.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The food is ok. It really depends on where you go. You have the school cafe, Starbucks, and The Grill. The school food is only good when the first begin to serve because after that most of it is gone. Starbucks is great for coffee but you have to to the library to go to it. The Grill is were many students go to eat because it more like a restaurant feel on campus. There are many restaurants down the street for when you get tired of campus food. Overall many students buy groceries because you get hungry late at night from studying.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Christians mostly but it is a mixed community so it is great for any student.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

The Greek life is all around you. They are very warm and inviting. They are extremely approachable.

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

The secruity gaurds ride around all night and can been seen though out the day so you will feel safe.
