The campus is absolutely beautiful and one of the major reasons I fell in love with this school, but because we are directly on the water, there is a lot of rain. The teachers are willing to help whenever and wherever possible and are actually interested in your education. As for the last sentence...The food is incredible and rated number one in the country by students for multiple years; fresh fish, organic, vegetarian, fresh made, options, what more could you want?
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Feel free to talk to students on campus and the tour guides, they genuinely love to tell you about the school and their experiences. And get to know the admissions people as well, they can be really helpful when you're applying or looking for financial aid help!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The difficulty of academics depends on your major, the classes, and the teachers. In general, the classes are neither impossible nor easy...just perfectly in the middle.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
No matter what year you are, there are multiple dorm options to ensure you will be happy where you are living, and everyone is very welcoming! The RAs are incredible and very helpful as well; they aren't looking to just be mean and get you in trouble.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
YUM and voted number 1.... that's all that needs to be said.
All the food is freshly made and delicious. There are unlimited options and they do a very good job of changing around and rotating food so it doesn't get boring. They serve fresh fish all the time (I've had stuffed quahogs, lobster bisque, lobster, salmon, fried calamari, scallops, shrimp...) and have a vegetarian bar every day so vegetarians never need to worry about eating. They are also very accommodating when it comes to allergies and gluten free.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There's always something going on on campus, but it's also really easy to go into Newport or Providence and do something there!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
It's right on the water....beautiful.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
They have the option of making your own club, so as long as you can find 14 people interested in the same thing, you can do anything from squirrel watching or long boarding to Quidditch or art.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There is no greek life on campus, but you don't even notice. It has no effect on the experience...
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
I always feel safe on campus, whether it's 3am, 5am, or 1pm.
