Christine's Review

Review of Multnomah University

from Portland, OR

Describe your college in three sentences.

I believe that Multnomah University is a great place to learn about God and develop healthy relationships. It preps one to go into ministry here in America and over seas. The best thing about Multnomah is that is a great place for community.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Always have fun! Make sure you take time in your life, for your life. This way it ensures that you are able to be free to make decisions about your life, and you are able to relax before any major tests or papers. Fun is a necessity to life.

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

Its hard, that is why only 33% of the people who enter here leave with a degree from here. If you stick with it, you'll definitely be proud of yourself when you are done. Some classes are easier than others. But if it was easy many people wouldn't learn very much. However, if reading and writing come naturally to you its the place to be for a Christian college.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

It's great when you just transferred/graduated and are under the age of 22. If older than it gets a little rough.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The cafeteria has a lot of different choices and opportunities. It does its best to be helpful for individuals needs based on allergies and even for those students who work there. I love the staff and enjoy their company when getting food/ serving it.

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

Oh people find the best things to do for fun. We've had recreational time: some people play soccer, ultimate Frisbee, volleyball, basket ball and other fun sports. We have a skate church right next to us where many students go to blade and skate. If this isn't the style, well the community goes camping once a semester and hosts scavenger hunts too. Movies, tea, music events are also hosted. Not to mention the outgoing staff that love their students. Also there are an arrange of mountains where one could go hiking or even ski. Public transportation is definitely helpful if one wants to go down town or to a mall. Its cheap and helpful for those without cars.

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

Unfortunately private schools are more expensive. But for private schools this definitely is a helpful object 20 thou for the school year. Financial aid is also appreciative towards those with little income.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Ah, unusual traditions. Weddings or rather proposals. We used to take the man who proposed and tie him to a chair and take the woman dress her up in a wedding gown of TP and parade her through the dorms and make them both tell their stories after she rescued the man.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Hard workers, fun energetic, organized, planners, those who stay on top of their work.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Clubs: Mafia= everything from playing mafia to eating foods from other countries. MK kids to PK kids and even the moocher students. Activities. All sorts exists and then more are created. Ideas are always excitedly welcome as long as one has a teacher supporting it or another who is in charge.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

well there aren't any sororities or anything but as far as Greeks go we have a few. :) We have a couple small houses near campus that are all filled with unique individuals.

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

I love the campus. In fact for the area that it is in, we are pretty safe. The group of individuals who run the safety checks do a wonderful job keeping things out that need to be out. I've never personally had anything disastrous or bad happen to me on the campus or even in the neighborhood, only a few odd people.
