Review of University of Redlands

from Lake Arrowhead, CA

Describe your college in three sentences.

The University of Redlands offers class sizes that are small and allow you to a have a great learning experience with the Professors. The Professors on campus truly are some of the best because of their enthusiasm, love for what they do, and they help students achieve nothing less than their best. The campus is a very welcoming environment and the town surrounding the campus is wonderful.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

If planning to attend, I would highly recommend living on campus for the first year. If you will not be living on campus like I did, I would strongly suggest getting involved in clubs and spending a lot of time on campus.

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

Professors are great, the only thing I would suggest doing is staying at a Steady 16 credits or higher each semester to help out with your registration for classes each semester.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The Irvine Commons offers gourmet meals from Bon Appetite

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

Hang out on campus in the library, on the quad, or in the commons for simple things to do. The University has plenty of events and activities to get involved in like intramural sports, greek life, and outdoor programs! On top of that, Redlands is such an active community with a lot to offer. Its an hour away from the mountains, Disneyland and an hour and half away from the beach. It's location gives it a great advantage.

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

You pay for the experience when attending Redlands. The University of Redlands is all about getting students to think critically and analytically, at least for my intended major in Business it has been. You get a great amount of one on one help from Professors when it is needed and they are available for office hours and by appointment.
