Review of West Virginia University Institute of Technology

from Columbia, MD

Describe your college in three sentences.

Great school for Engineering. Small and quiet but love it. Everyone is friendly and the Dean is Boss.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

A nice choice if you're looking for small and quiet, but you do want to keep in mind that this school is huge on their academics which attracted me.

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

Be on your game, the proffers most certainly will be on theirs, that doesn't mean, however, that they won't help you. Think of it almost as like High School, your professors will do what they can to help you get that degree, but you will have to work for it.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

I love my dorms, everyone is nice to one another and it's almost like having a family here.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

I work at the Dining Hall and I have to say, we have a large array of choices for students to pick from and the food is really good. They also keep in mind if you have certain allergies, if you're a vegetarian, or if you have any special circumstances.

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

They have movies, recreational games, Greek Life, Sports...etc There is always something to do around campus.

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

As far as it goes, it is extremely worth the money for it's academics and residential life.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

You'll have to find out just like I did :D

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Those who are serious about their academics, who don't want to travel outside of WV, if you love the mountains, or if you want your college professors to get to know you.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Greek Life, Student Jobs, Recreational Activities, and Sports

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There are both Fraternities and Sororities on campus that are unique in their own way.

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

I've actually gotten to know the campus Police and they actually meant what they said when they cared about the students.
