Review of Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania

Describe your college in three sentences.

Ship is a medium sized campus which allows you to make new friends and see old ones on a daily basis. There are always parties to go to if you are into that, a lot of college students are. Ship has some tough courses that are worth your money in preparing you for a job or grad school.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Make sure you go to the school that has your top two or three majors in it so that if you want to change major you can do so and not transfer schools.

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

Really depends on the courses you are taking. Ship has some very difficult science courses that will test your ability but if you take the right professors you can sometimes get off easy in your gen eds.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Ship is putting in all new dorms and although they are very nice, they take away from the sense of community that people have in the traditional style dorms.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Ship has a lot of options for food and two large buffet style dinning halls.

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

Parties, programs, movies, sports, and a gym kind of sum it up.

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

Ship is very very inexpensive!!

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Ship has a good science program and a good business program.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Lots of intramural sports and other things going on.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

I would estimate that a good 50-60% of campus is in some type of Greek life.

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

I have never felt unsafe and there are cops patrolling at all times.
