Review of Longwood University

from Farmville, VA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

The teachers here at Longwood expect a lot from their students. Especially those in your intended major. They are very smart and have a lot to offer in the classroom.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

There might not be a lot to do in Farmville, but there is plenty to do on campus. The people here are all very nice. With Hampton-Sydney next door, there are plenty of parties and events to go to and all are a lot of fun.

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

One of the cheapest colleges in central Virginia that I found. Based on the tutition, you get a lot for the price of the college. Compared to the other colleges near by, you either get a lot more or it is a lot cheaper.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Farmville is a small town, there isn't much to do outside the college. Don't expect to never go to class and still be able to pass, attendance is a big deal at this school. It is not the most demanding school in the world, but what they do expect they are very strict about. Overall, a pretty great college with a very rich history.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Students who enjoy learning but also like to have fun. Students who want a good education but don't want it to be the only focus while at college. They also want to be able to go out and have fun, but don't mind being in a small town.
