I personally would rate Vincennes an eight out of a ten on a ten point scale. It is a very small school so it allows you to get to know a lot of people. The professors are also pretty awesome.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Some tips from me to you would be to make sure you get involved on campus. I got involved with Campus Activities Board, Student Government, and i joined a sorority. Its very important to get involved because not only does it look good on your resume but it also allows you to make some great friendships and to get involved on campus. Another tip is that if you kind of have an idea of what you want to major in but your still not completly sure make sure you major in general studies for now. You don't want to waste a whole semester on something you are not going to do. It is very easy to change your major to.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The academics here at the university are outstanding! The advisors and professors really help you succeed here at Vincennes University. They have office hours that are designed for you to come and ask questions about homework or preparing for a test. The class sizes are average 15 to 25 students. This allows more one on one time for the professors to help you. Over all the academics here at VIncennes University are great!

Dorm life here at the University is better then most. You have a choice between having a private or sharing rooms. We have several options here at the university ranging from apartment styles to the basic dorm. The room sizes are pretty spacious which is a good thing so that you do not have to live on top of each other. If you have problems with your roommate it is very easy to switch rooms.

We have had movie nights, game nights, and even tie dye nights.
