Review of University of New England

from Clifton Park, NY

Describe your college in three sentences.

The University of New England is definitely a great college. The connections I have made in my one year are incredible. Everyone here is very helpful, and they offer many resources for you in order to make sure you succeed.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Take advantage of all the resources offered to you, they really help!

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

Classes are small, and focused. Professors challenge you as a student here at the University of New England. They push you to do your best.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Dorms are comfortable and welcoming. Everyone is really friendly, and it is easy to make friends. The quality of the dorms are fantastic.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Sodexo does a fantastic job supply food for the University of New England. We have multiple choices for meals every day, and they even offer multiple places on campus to eat.

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

Attend the events! Whether it be a sporting event, or an event put on by the Activities Programming Board, Resident Student Life Association, or any of the other clubs and groups including Outdoor Recreation, get out there and be active! There is always something to do to keep yourself busy.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Tuition just increased, but I think as a private college where you're getting a great education, the price is fair. The school offers great financial packages, but room and board prices are a little high.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

The University of New England is located right on the Saco River which opens down the street into the Atlantic Ocean. The beaches, points, and docks are all great places that are unique to our school.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Students interested in the health and science fields, especially in Osteopathic Medicine should definitely keep the University of New England in the back of their minds. As a Neuroscience major, I also find that the Psychology Department is one of the best around, as well as Marine Biology.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There are clubs ranging from knitting to rugby. Anything you can think of, you can find here at the University of New England.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

No Greek Life that I'm aware of.

Blue lights and security are around at all times of the day. This is definitely the safest campus I visited on my college tours, and I have never once felt threatened at my time here.
