The class sizes are small so professors know every student by name. This is very helpful because class time is more personal, more attention is paid to individual students,questions are gladly answered, and overall you get more out of class in my opinion. The professors are extremely knowledgeable and fit for their jobs. I have never had a professor who was not openly available for extra help outside of class.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
This is a smaller-sized school but not too small. I know many people on campus and everyone is friendly and says hi as you walk by. However, there are some people I do not know. Therefore, in my opinion, this is a perfect size for a school. I feel as if I am learning everything I will need to be successful in my field of choice. There are many clubs, sports, and activities going on around campus that anyone can get involved in. Night life off-campus is great as well. There are bars within close proximity that are great quality, not too expensive, and an overall great environment.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Tuition is going up here as it is everywhere in a not-so-good economy. However, the college is great at helping with financial aid, much financial aid is available, and the college gives out a lot of financial aid to deserving students. I applied to 8 colleges and none of the other 7 compared to the amount of financial aid I received from Springfield College.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Get out there and meet people! Join clubs, try out for sports, do intramurals. There are so many opportunities on this campus. Take advantage of them!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
athletes, people who love to volunteer and/or get involved with the community and other activities
