Nazareth College is amazing. It has such a great atmosphere and everyone is so friendly. The teachers and classes are awesome and you really feel like you're getting the education that you want.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Don't push aside Nazareth because of the required classes every student has to take. There are a lot of required courses that we all have to take and while it may turn you off at first, it's actually pretty cool because you probably won't take those kinds of courses again for the rest of your college career and it broadens your range of knowledge. Also, prepare to get kind of tired of the food after a while; while it's all pretty good, after a while it seems like you don't have many choices. This being said, our food is still much better than a lot of other colleges. The majority of people at Nazareth are also genuinely friendly; it's a pretty small college so you see a lot of the same people around campus but there's such a good vibe!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Some of the required classes for all students are easier than specific major courses so they can be used to buffer your grade from your harder classes. Specific major courses however, aren't a walk in the park. Nazareth College classes definitely push you to do your best; it seems slightly overwhelming when you're trying to get everything done, but at the end of every semester you're truly smarter and have actually attained so much knowledge instead of just sliding by so it's worth it.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Dorm life is great at Nazareth College! Although it's a small college you have quite a variety of dorms to choose from including louder more social dorms and quieter more secluded dorms. They're all kept pretty clean and the RA's are all pretty friendly and helpful if you have any concerns or questions. The room sizes are all pretty good too!
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Nazareth College is a small school so there are not as many places to choose to eat on campus. Nevertheless, all of the food is really quite delicious and they work to give you different options. It gets kind of old after a while because you feel like you don't have that many choices but overall it's very good!
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There are not a lot of things to do on campus since it is a small college, but there are buses all the time that stop at the college and go all over the city so you can go to the mall or explore downtown Rochester which has an abundance of options.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Nazareth College can be very hard to afford and while they give financial aid to almost every student it's sometimes not enough causing some financial difficulties. Nevertheless, while I have this struggle I will do anything to continue going to Nazareth College because I absolutely love it. It would financially make more sense to go to a different college but I love the campus, the people, the classes, and everything about Nazareth College!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
For a small college there are quite a few clubs to choose from and they're very good about allowing you to get new clubs started if you feel there's something you'd like to add.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Nazareth College is so good about safety! It's a small campus so campus safety can get to you quickly if you have any issues but it's a very safe campus in a very safe location so there really aren't any problems.
