Newberry College's learning experience is very unique. The small class sizes make it easy to have a one on one relationship with your professor. The instructors are always more than willing to spend the extra time and energy to make sure that the class or individual understands the concept. At Newberry you are not another number, but a student to a professor that wants to see you succeed. With this small learning environment there are many opportunities for students to explore outside of classroom as well.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The college community is very exciting at Newberry. We have a variety of organizations and a student body that enjoys being involved. There is always some event to take part in and the college's fine art and lecture program helps to find speakers that are not just educational but fun. It is a very easy school to get involved, make friends and I have enjoyed every minute of my first year here.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
With being a small private institution, Newberry is not the most inexpensive school in South Carolina, but it is well worth paying the extra money. The College is very good about taking the extra money and really spending it on the student body. From the school hosted student activities, to the free printing and laundry on campus, it is obvious after only a few weeks on campus that the college's main priority is the students!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
I would recommend that students sit in on classes at their prospective schools. When attending college, the majority of time will be spent in the classroom so it is important to see if the learning environment will help you succeed
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Newberry is great for students that like the small town feel but still like to have plenty to do while at school. There is a perfect balance of busy and bored. It is also good for students who thrive in smaller classes and desire to be a student that stands out in the crowd.
