Review of Springfield College

from Lowell, MA

Describe your college in three sentences.

SC is very friendly and welcoming. It has a open atmosphere and everyone tries to say hi to everyone.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

If you want to get in then promote the community service you have done or leadership skills including sports.

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

I am a criminal justice major and it is not that hard to keep up with. However, I am a exception and any major that is a science will be very rigorous and intense.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

I think the dorms are great and when you come in here you should live in gulick if your a freshman. Then later Abbey if your a sophomore and Living Center as a junior if you can get in but abbey is fine. Finally, for a senior go for the senior suites.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

in comparsion to others Springfield College is the best though once you get used to it you start to get annoyed. the union is the best for fresh food and quality

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

if your 21 then the bars and clubs are a lot of fun and inexpensive. if your not then there are 18+ clubs. also there are so many clubs, events, and activities to do so you don't have to go off-campus

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

40,000 a year is a lot of money though luckily there are scholarships to be given out and if your a RA they pay for your food and half of your housing

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