Review of Thiel College

from Medina, OH

Describe your college in three sentences.

Once you attend Thiel College you become apart of the Thiel Family. Everyone at Thiel makes you feel at home whether it is the admissions, professors, staff, community, or other students. Everyone supports the students by helping them not only in the classroom, but also supporting them with what they do outside of the classroom!

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

College is what you make of it! It's all about you and your attitude! College will be the best four years of your life if you get involved on campus and in the community! Also, always put your studies first. Your friends can wait for you. After all, you are at college to learn and get a degree, always remember that!

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

Thiel's focus on academics is very strong. The professors are wonderful and always are available when you need help. Thiel wants to see you succeed so there is lots of help all around campus with any class that you need help in. It is also very easy to double or even triple major and have many minors.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Little by little Thiel is renovating the different dorms. I always loved how everyone always leaves their doors open so you would always be chatting or hanging out with the other people in your dorm. You meet so many people living in the dorms and it creates great friendships. Living in a dorm is one of the best possible experiences you can have at college.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

There are two places to eat on campus our galleria (cafeteria) and the bistro. There is something there for everyone to eat!

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

Thiel does an outstanding job always trying to have something to do on campus for the students, because the town of Greenville is small. Recent movies that are out of theaters but not yet on dvd are shown in Bly Hall every Wednesday and Sunday night. Wings n Sings happens once a month which is one of the biggest hits on campus. Wings and karaoke are a big hit among college students. Another favorite is grocery bingo which also takes place once a month and is playing bingo to win a huge laundry basket of drinks and snacks. The are also many concerts, dances, trips to big cities, athletic events, plays, and much more. The best part of it is that all of the events hosted by Thiel are free to the students. Fun stuff to do in the community would be bowling, going to the coffee shop downtown, going to the park, or heading over to the Grove City Outlet Mall!

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Brother Martins Walk....This is a walk way on campus lined with trees from different graduating classes. It is believed that if you walk down the path with your boyfriend or girlfriend and kiss at the end under the Thiel arch you are bound to be married!

Which types of students will excel at your college?

If you like the small school environment, Thiel is definitely perfect for you!

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Thiel has any club you want just name it! If Thiel doesn't have the club you are looking for starting your own club is super easy and encouraged at Thiel! There are many clubs dealing with volunteering, athletics, Christian outreach, freshman orientation, school spirit, the arts, and specification to majors.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There are 4 sororities and 4 fraternities on campus and many students at Thiel are involved in Greek life.

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

Public Safety at Thiel is always available when you need them no matter when you call. They are very nice and always willing to help you out. Public Safety definitely makes the campus a very safe environment.
