I absolutely love the small class sizes and nice learning facilities available here. Most classes have no more then 25 students in it, so your teachers actually know you by name and care about your success. The small class sizes also make it easier for you to ask questions and get help when you need it. Classroom learning isn't the only type of learning that goes on at Westminster. Through all of the different clubs I have gained so many valuable leadership and teamwork skills that will make me attractive to future employers.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
Enjoying being here is an understatement I absolutely love it here! Westminster College is truly a campus community. What I mean by that is all of the students on campus are very close and always willing to help each other out. The family-like atmosphere makes being on campus a wonderful experience. Living in the dorms as a freshman has been a pretty good experience. I like that fact that all of the freshman live together in one central area. It make adjusting to college life easier when you know the person in the next room is going through the same thing you are. There are so many opportunities to join different clubs. I personally am on the Service Corp board and we help to plan all of the service projects that take place on campus and around the city of Fulton. I am also part of Student Ambassadors. Those are just two groups available on campus. There are so many more such as being part of Greek Life, SGA or a sports team. With all of these opportunities and the amazing people here on campus I am glad to know, I can proudly say It's a great day to be a Blue Jay.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
I am sure a lot of people have looked at the price tag for Westminster and immediately said no way that's to expensive. Really in the long run Westminster is a great value. The teachers provide challenging class work, so you know your receiving a quality education. While yes campus is small but there are always events going on that are free to students. So you can directly see and benefit from many of the things your tuition goes toward. All of the clubs and organizations offer wonderful leadership and skill building opportunities to help you pad your resume for after graduation. At the end of the day Westminster College is a great value for all of the wonderful experiences you will have in your four years here.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
The higher your GPA and ACT score the better. Westminster offers a great scholarship competition to students with good grades and a high ACT score. Most students here have won some money from that competition and most of the time it can almost cut your tuition in half. Also come and visit campus. The best way to know if this, or any other school, is the right school for you is to come a visit. Most people fall in love with the campus the minute they get here. Lastly, once you get on campus don't waste anytime getting involved. If you really want a fantastic four years you need to be involved in something and that really applies to anywhere you go.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Westminster College is great for students who really value their education and want to continue to be challenged. Also we are a small school. If you are looking for a small school to attend for college this is an awesome pick. We have a wonderful biology program, so we are great for students who are pre-med, pre-vet or biology in general.
