The classes here are small. All of your classes will never reach 40, so forget about large lecture halls. I love the classes; because of the small class size, you get to learn much more and have a great relationship with your professor. Your professor knows who you are; you are not just a number, like you are at larger schools. The professors are very helpful and if you want to succeed, there is a lot of help and resources everywhere on campus.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The campus is gorgeous. The beach is 5 minutes away and the surrounding area is really nice. Everything is pretty close, such as the Monmouth Mall or the shops and nightlife at Pier Village. The atmosphere is very relaxing which is a huge plus when attending college. The farthest academic building that a resident has to walk to class is 15 minutes away, and the residential halls are separated from the academic buildings which creates a nice balance.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Get involved is the best thing I've ever done. By getting involved at Monmouth University, more and more other students as well as the faculty get to know you. Because of that, it is easier to receive help when you need it and its the college experience is so much better in the long run by knowing more people and not just sitting in the dorm room.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Great if you want to go to a smaller school, where you recognize most of the other students that you see everyday. Great if you want to get involved and be known on campus. Not a big campus, so everything is close by if you don't like walking or getting lost. Great for those who love the beach and enjoy historic buildings (Wilson Hall).
