Review of Shepherd University

from Bluefield, WV

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

I am a fine arts major here about to enter my senior year. I have had the benefit and pleasure to learn from amazing professors and artists. Each (art) professor is an encyclopedia of knowledge and amazing resources to tap.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

There are hundreds of activities and opportunities on campus to get involved. There are free bus trips into Baltimore or Washington DC several times through the school year, and opportunities for traveling to New York City. It's in a great location to do virtually whatever you enjoy.

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

Definitely as an in-state student Shepherd University is a great place and readily affordable compared to other schools.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

For incoming art majors: this isn't high school and As are not just handed out. It takes a lot of work, creativity, and time, but it's worth it to stick with it. Don't let the Visual Thinking class scare you away, no one particularly enjoys it.
