I don't think I've ever been able to learn so much about so many of my favorite subjects anywhere else. College of Idaho's liberal arts style covers a huge variety of topics and how they connect to other topics. The PEAK program may seem like a hassle to some, but for those who can't limit themselves to just one subject, like me, it's perfect!
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
One of the main reasons I decided on the College of Idaho was because of how small and homey it felt when I toured it. Unlike a lot of bigger colleges, I could actually see myself living here; the school feels like a community, not like a huge corporate city.
I've only been here for one year and I've already encountered plenty of awesome people who are very welcoming, including most all of the professors I've met.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
All in all, College of Idaho definitely feels like it lives up to its price. The professors are very friendly and very good at what they do, there's lots of diversity in the things you can study, and it just has a general calm and welcoming feel to it. I'm definitely struggling to keep up with the prices, but the college offers quite a few scholarships to help.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Learn to organize! This was the worst problem I had. Everything works out fine if you can keep on top of it.
Also, if you need a quiet place to work on something, the library worked wonders for me.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Students who are looking for a smaller, less-hectic college.
Also, students who are interested in a well-rounded liberal arts kind of education.
