Review of Northwestern University

from Smithfield, VA

Describe your college in three sentences.

This is a wonderful environment with excellent faculty. Good food, great people, and an awesome lakeview! I cannot recommend this school highly enough.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Go ahead and apply, even if you think you can't get in. This may be perfect for you after all. Above all, don't sweat it. Also, don't fret about the weather. You adjust.

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

Good stuff. Fun stuff.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

The rooms aren't always the largest, nor are the dorms the newest. But NU is renovating them all the time. As far as I can tell, everywhere on campus is a pleasant place to live.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

It's very good. No complaints over here.

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

Head to Chicago and explore EVERYTHING: art, culture, shopping, the works. Also, there's great stuff in Evanston.
