The staff is respectful and extremely helpful, especially when you're lost. The professors are there to help you grow and get your money's worth. Fellow students are sometimes quiet, but almost always friendly.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Sign up for classes as soon as possible! Although this is great advice for any college, it's definitely one to be taken seriously. They cannot work with your schedule if you do not set down the mold for them to follow. Also, arrive on time or early and without a phone in your face. You paid thousands of dollars to go to school, don't waste it scrolling on social media.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
So far my classes have been challenging enough to push me out of my comfort zone, but not impossible enough for me to crumble in on myself. Even if I were to become lost, the only reason I would fail is if I decided not to reach out to anyone for help. The professors don't want you to fail, they want to see you succeed. My professors have taught me that you can't succeed without trying, you can't grow without mistakes, and you can't learn without questions.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
I can't really say for sure because I'm personally a commuter. From what my friends tell me, their only problem is with rowdy roommates and not the dorms themselves. The staff at the dorms are ready to help with any issues, they're polite to people who are just visiting the dorms, and the rooms themselves are comfortable.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
My personal experience with the food and dining at my college is fairly decent. I enjoyed a lot of their desserts, the drinks are never flat, and the pasta was quite delicious. I didn't run into any problems, however, I do believe that they should have a few more options in terms of dishes.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There are way too many things to do for fun at this college. There's sports games almost every week, music performances, big events (such as the crawfish boil), and of course small events like free donut day. That's without joining a club or organization!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
The crawfish boil may be my favorite tradition that they have. The whole campus gets together to eat boiled crawfish and socialize.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
This is a very diverse, beautiful college. The cherry on the top of the cake is that it's cheap. I think that the types of students who should seek Nicholls out are men and women who have a dream of becoming a nurse, artist, or a chef, their programs are absolutely amazing. If you just want to attend to grab some pre-reqs and a less stressful environment, go for it. It's the perfect starting place, or the perfect finish line. That part depends on you.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
The campus has their own police force that patrols at all times of the day. If you're lost or you are having a problem with parking, they're the people to see.
