What Students Are Saying

Strong, but not impossible.
Yajhaira from Stafford, VA
Being a freshman you can see the academic differences between college and high school and though it will be an adjustment there are many resources on campus to help you if you feel apprehensive or uncertain.
Hannah from Big Sandy, TN
You will be challenged. Even some of the general education classes are a little difficult. It is college. So it will be hard. Also keep in mind, since it is a very small college, professors keep attendance as a grade. If you skip too many classes, you will lose points on your overall grade or possibly fail the course. However, keep in mind that if you just go to class, you practically get free A's. Also, there are a lot of resources made available to students. The writing center and tutors are there to help you with papers and subjects you do not understand. Also, most professors are VERY helpful when it comes to explaining concepts in and out of class. Since it is a small college, teachers will stop and explain concepts because there are not a lot of people in the classes. Most classes run about 20-30 people MAX. There are a few exceptions, of course.
