Review of Roanoke College

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

I am learning so much from Roanoke. The teachers are amazing and are very interested in what they teach, which in turn makes the students more interested in learning. I feel that I am really getting a top-notch education that is going to help further my education and career.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I love the people that I've met at Roanoke. All of the people are so welcoming and friendly. The campus itself is completely gorgeous and surrounded by mountains. Salem and Roanoke College are just really great places to be.

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

While Roanoke College is a very expensive school I do think it's worth it. You really get the whole package with Roanoke. The campus is gorgeous, the classes and professors are great, and all of the people working for the school are fantastic.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

The greatest tip I could give is to get involved. There are so many activities at RC that anyone can find something to join. Joining a club can really make your college experience great. I'd also suggest really getting to know you're professors. It's really easy with the small class sizes, and they are some of the most awesome people you'll meet on campus.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Roanoke is a great place for students who like small class sizes and the opportunity to interact with their professors. Roanoke is also a great place for students who want to be near big cities, but don't necessarily want to live there. Salem is a small suburban town but it's only 20 minutes from the city of Roanoke. RC is also a great school for prospective psychology majors to apply to; our psychology programs is one of the best.
