Review of Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania

from Littlestown, PA

Describe your college in three sentences.

A small school that has a good feel of a sense of community. The professors are extremely educated and qualified. Extra-curricular activities are a good asset to the school.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Do not base what classes you want to take on what others say about the class. If it is something that interests you then take it. Everyone has different opinions about the professors and difficulty of the courses. Take the course and decide for yourself.

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

The classes are as challenging as you choose to make it. Put the effort in and it will not be as difficult.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

The new suites are like living at home. The old dorms are a little rough.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

There is a wide variety of food choices. Whatever you are in the mood for I can guarantee you would be able to find it at one the dining locations.

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

For fun I like to hang out with friends I made in the dorms and participate in clubs. Some clubs that they offer are mini-thon, psychology club, and spanish club.

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

You get what you pay for. College is expensive but, I have not come across one professor who does not want to teach and help you succeed.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Old Main Cafe is a dining location located in Old Main. There food is excellent. Many students do not know about this option. It's like a hidden secret.
