Review of Saint Vincent College

from Blairsville, PA

Describe your college in three sentences.

This was an excellent choice for me. I would strongly recommend this college for anyone who wants to be prepared for their career. The faculty are helpful, knowledgeable and care about the success of the students.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Don't let the cost scare you there are many scholarships, work-study and grants available. Don't make your choice on cost until you see what it will cost after financial aid.

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

I attended a total of 2 state schools and 1 community college for my undergraduate studies. I attended 1 other state school for my graduate studies. Saint Vincent is academically more rigorous but that is why employers hire Saint Vincent graduates.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

There are many activities scheduled on and off campus.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

There are many food choices and you don't have to leave campus to find something you like. My husband wanted to enroll just for the food choices.

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

There are many activities, clubs and sports. Bus and vans are often used to transport students to out of town events and activities.

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

I have the personal experience to compare and there is no comparison. I strongly recommended that my daughter attend Saint Vincent College and was pleased that she did. I want her to be more than ready for her career and I know she will be successful.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Steeler Camp is my favorite!

Which types of students will excel at your college?

If you want to learn you have come to the right place.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Many clubs and sports to choose from.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

I didn't participate but there are many opportunities.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Excellent! There is a check in booth that checks as you enter. Campus security is very visible. I locked my keys in the car and they opened it for me free of charge.
