Review of University of Dubuque

from Plainfield, IL

Describe your college in three sentences.

Since it is a small school, you are not just a number. The teachers care about you and actually know your name! It's is also a very tight knit community

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Get to know your advisor early! They will help you with just about everything and when it is time to pick your classes they are on top of it!

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

Obviously you are going to have more work in college but the teachers give you plenty of time to do your work! Some are also very lenient on extensions on deadlines!

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Just keep your dorm door open and someone will be sure to say hi while walking by! Since it's a small school, you'll get to know people quicker too!

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The food service people are nothing but nice! They help you with anything you need and are very open to suggestions!

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

The school is right by the Mississippi River! There are plenty of paths and even when it gets hot out the beaches open up so you can hang out there for the day!

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

There is a house in the middle of campus where an old man lives. He comes out every once in a while and is super nice! He's lived in that house forever!

Which types of students will excel at your college?

This school is great for student athletes! Since it is a small school, you are surrounded by athletes and people who are always trying to push each other to the next level!

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

Campus security is super nice! They will help you across campus if it is late out and you are scared to go alone!
