Tusculum College does their classes on the block schedule which makes it easier to concentrate on one class and subject at a time! You take one class at a time for 18 days, then have a 4 day block break which you can go home during which makes it impossible to become home-sick! It is a small college but it is in a beautiful Eastern part of the United States and I love all of the friends and people I have met while attending Tusculum!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Give colleges with the block system a chance, it may be a lot of work within one day but if you don't like the class you are in or professor, it doesn't matter because you only have 18 days in that class. The block schedule helps you stay consistent, focused, and maintain time management. There isn't much to do in the small town of Greeneville, Tennessee but with all of the great friends you will make you will still have fun! Also, stay active within the campus... join clubs, groups, and play intramural sports, I do all three.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Great professors that will push you to do your best!
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Very fun and excting!
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Could be better but it is buffet style and you have plenty to chose from in the cafeteria and/or throughout the town of Greeneville!
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Johnson City is 30 minutes away from the school and Knoxville is about an hour away so you can always find something to do! Everyone goes to a small club called The Valley in Greeneville which is fun! There is also a game room on campus and someone is always down for going to $5 Tuedays at the Movie Theater.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Tusculum is more on the expensive side but I believe it is well worth the price!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Tusculum is the first college in Tennessee and is still existing! It has a great history and President Andrew Johnson attended college there.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Tons of clubs to join. sport events are always fun to attend and intramural sports are so much fun to play!
