Honestly I have yet to attend, but the impression that's been given is pretty clear how humbling the school is. There's a huge regard towards the deep thoughts of knowledge and how far an individual can go by becoming the independent thinker. I find it welcoming, with a warm environment.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Really find your path with what you feel you NEED to know. There's a huge difference between someone who is attending a university, and someone who is thirsty for doing what they want to do and learning what they want to learn. Ultimately have the sense of urgency to learn if you're willing to make the commitment to this school, it is unlike any other I've seen before.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
It is a huge commitment, and overall the course work will involve a lot of your time. From what I am finding out about my reading list and what's ahead for me: To make the grade, this isn't just some ordinary English course. It is vivid work, that involves you to be very meticulous. You're going to read everything form the Bible to the Iliad. You will grow as a student, there's no way you can ignore the work that's been put in.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
I will say from what I've heard the dorm life is special. Everybody enjoys the campus as much as they enjoy the dorms. Lots of mobility, and very welcoming settings in the community of The University of Dallas.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Buffet all day! I've seen the menu and I'm already hungry. The meal plan provides a thorough and reasonable amount of food. They've got you covered from breakfast, lunch and dinner! The menu is open to bacon, pancakes, eggs, burgers, fries, fried chicken, YOU NAME IT! It's all good here!
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
It may come to a surprise, but with the academic rigor and the student life (besides sports) a lot of what's fun is what's being learned on campus. Again this isn't your ordinary campus. Here everybody wants to learn and grow more! As humans we have our interactions and fun, downtown Dallas is ten miles away. Fortunately, the knowledge and real education sits right there for us to enjoy and savor.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
It is a private university, so there's no surprise this type of education is going to cost a little more. But with the financial assistance you get, and the vast array of scholarships available it is very affordable. Plus there's always scholarship opportunities all over campus.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
People who want to learn and grow as human beings. It's that simple, there is no real hidden agenda here. Either you want it or you don't. Realistically the material and the courses given needs to be given everywhere. It's the type of work that begins to hinder inside of an individual and begin to ask all of the real questions about life.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There isn't any reason for you not to be busy on campus! There's plenty going on! From sports to theater! The University of Dallas provides an extended amount of extracurricular opportunities.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
I always feel secure on campus no matter what day of the week it is. The campus police department is no joke and looks after it's students.
