Review of Montserrat College of Art

from Monroe, CT

Describe your college in three sentences.

Montserrat is dedicated to seeing their students succeed during school and after graduation. There are a variety of classes and majors to focus on and plenty of real world connections students can make by talking to and working with professional artists. Being a small school, it is a very supportive environment for students.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Montserrat is a great school if you are dedicated to visual arts. Also, I would recommend bringing a bike since freshmen aren't allowed to have cars on campus.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

The classes push you to try new things and take risks. There is a lot of art to do, but not much related to math or science.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Dorms are usually comfortable and even have a full kitchen to be shared between house-mates.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Montserrat does not have a cafeteria. Students need to either cook for themselves or go to a local restaurant, which there are a lot of in Beverly. I actually like being able to cook my own meals, so I don't mind not having a meal plan.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

There are a lot of places within walking distance, like movie theaters, cafes, shops, and a beach a couple of blocks away. The train station is also near by, in case you wanted to take a trip to Boston or Salem.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There is a large variety of clubs you can join, but if you can't find the one you have in mind you can start your own!

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Campus security is always available to students.
