Review of Salem International University

Describe your college in three sentences.

Honestly, Salem is a wonderful place to be. You meet a lot of very friendly professors and friends. There are a lot of international students that go here and getting to know them can be very interesting because they all have different cultures.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

If you want to go out on the weekend or just go out to eat at a resturant, I reccomend that you bring you're car to Salem. If you don't have a car an alternative is the bus, taxi, or even a friend. There are many things to do on campus in the Tiger's Den which makes everyone come together as a family and have fun. They have many flat screen TVs which are hooked up to game systems of all sorts. If you want a late night snack there is always the 24-hour seven eleven.

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

Your academic's are very important expecially if you play a sport. In order to continue with that certain sport you need a GPA of 2.0. Even if you don't play a sport you should still continue to get good grades. The one class a month method is very helpful and I understand the material very well. There professors and tutor's come in handy as well and they are willing to help you as long as you respect their instructions and tips on the work you're doing.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

The dorm life wonderful. Salem has changed within the past year. We now have vending machines in our lobbies. Instead of going to seven eleven everyday to get quarters, we were provided with change machines in our laundry room. Salem has improved in the past years and is still improving the dorm life is very fun. On special days like the super bowl, the school buys pizza for everyone and we all spend time watching the game in the lobby. The lobby is a decent size and many of us go down their to watch movies or play games on the Wii.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Honestly, the food at Salem isn't that good. A Lot of the students here usually eat pizza, Chinese, or Roman Noodles. Sometimes Salem will have their days when the lunch is amazing but usually for dinner most students aren't satisfied.

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

At Salem we sometimes have game night in the Tiger Den. That's when certain people come and have different games to play with us sometimes we can win money. We also have BINGO in the cafeteria during lunch every 2 weeks. You can win a lot of dorming supplies. We also have trips to the mall for fun. In October we always have trips to go to haunted houses. I have experieced that and I had a blast going to them.
