Review of University of North Carolina at Pembroke

from Raleigh, NC

Describe your college in three sentences.

UNCP was not my first choice but I absolutely love it. Pembroke is a very great school that is willing to help you to the best of their abilities. With the small campus and classes, you get so much engagement with the teachers and students and that is what makes the experience of education the best.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

If you are thinking about applying to this University then I would follow through with it. You get a excellent education.

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

The academic challenges you face at Pembroke are worth the time. They challenge you with the intend that it will help you and it truly does. If i was not pushed and motivated by my teachers and school work, I would not be as educated and strong as I am as of now.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

I am currently an residential adviser for one of the dorms at UNCP. The dorm life will really give you the experience and opportunities you will love as a college student.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

My first year at UNCP the cafeteria was alright and not to pleasing. But the start of my sophomore year, they remolded the caf and it looks stunning along with better variety and better quality of food.

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

UNCP is in a very rural area but they does not mean you can not have fun. The university is always having fun events for the students that are very interesting and fun. If you are a student here and say you are bored then you are not getting involved in the many activities they have.

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

Even though UNCP as a fairly low tuition, you would not think you pay as much as you did for the education you are getting. I am extremely satisfied with the amount I pay and the education I receive for it.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Since I have been a freshman at UNCP, they always have the best homecoming week with many activities and event leading up to the footall game. I always look forward to this week.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

UNCP is a great place for students who like every day engagement in the classrooms and well as one on one help with your teachers if needed. Teachers are always there to help any students if they need it and they make it well known.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

UNCP has an unlimited amount of clubs and organizations for every interest and needs.

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

The campus safety at Pembroke is excellent. I have always felt very safe. I say this because I always see police officers and police cars patrolling the campus to make sure every one is safe.
