Being in the physical therapy program is tough, but I have definitely learned a lot more compared to some of my friends from high school who went to large public schools. Luckily, the professors are always more than willing to help you and have lots of office hours. I have even used some of the information that I've learned at my part time job during breaks, which has definitely been helpful! Even though the courses can be tough, you still have plenty of social time and can meet a lot of nice people! Even though at first glance, the school may not seem socially diverse, it definitely is in it's own way. Everyone is different and that has definitely contributed to my overall learning experience so far. I wouldn't trade my experiences for anything!
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The campus is a perfect size for me and for those who enjoy walking to wherever they need to be within 2 to 7 minutes. I love being able to walk to the gym and eat breakfast all before a 9 am or even 8 am class. Everything needed was pretty much right there on campus, which was perfect for not having a car on campus!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Since LVC is a small liberal arts, private institution it of course is a bit more pricey than your average large, in state, public school. However, I believe with the 3 scholarships they offer based on your class rank during high school, surely you can get some kind of financial help. I think for the physical therapy program the price is definitely well worth it and will save you the headache of applying for graduate schools. This is of course if physical therapy is your calling and you can keep up with the high GPA requirements. Where there's a will, there's a way!
