Lyon College provides a very aggressive academic program, their classes are invigorating, challenging, interesting and provide interaction with an amazing faculty. The homework helps to make the information in class concrete within the memory. And finally the overall information covered in class allows for much to be covered.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The college and surrounding area is amazing. People are very friendly, the college staff is helpful and the area's people really support the college being there and its students. The communtity has all the essentials and offers great opportunties for communtity service. The only downfall is that there is less to do outside of the college if you do not have a ride, the way to deal with that though... is to make friends who do...
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
As a private school, the college is very well priced and the products of your money can be seen throughout campus. However, the dorm facilities do not leave that final impression of twenty eight thousand dollars a year...
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
First, if you think Lyon is the college for you, make sure you've taken a tour of the area and the campus. Think about all that you like to do and make sure that the area has it, or most of it available.
Secondly, if you want to spend a lot of time off-campus, bring a vehicle. There are community bikes that are great for quick trips but for the late night runs to Walmart for coffee and snacks, for the trips out to eat... a car is needed. The college does give opportunities for nights out on the town, when they pay for you to eat dinner, dessert, and go watch a movie, plus, there is free bowling and movies on the weekend... finally, the next thing you should consider is how much time you want to put in, the average time it takes for me to do all of my homework is about 2x the time I spend in class. So for a three times a week class, I do about 6 hours of homework and so forth.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Scottish heritage, academic based, students who are wanting to go into English, Law, the sciences, students who love good teachers and students who like to party in safe and the less safe ways ;)
