Describe your classmates in one sentence.My classmates are diverse and very nice and personable.What kind of person should attend this school?Someone who likes a small school and participates in campus activites would absolutly love it here at Benedictine University.

What do you consider the best thing about your school? Why?One of the best things about Benedictine University is the small class sizes and the relatively small campus. It gives you a chance to actually get to know people and the professors, and it gives you greater sense of belonging. It’s nice to be able to sit in a classroom of 15-20 people and actually be able to particpate, instead of sitting in a huge lecture hall where the professor doesn’t even know your name.,If you could change something about your school, what would you change?I would change how the faculty handles problems, like at the bookstore or in fincanial aid. I have had many issues this year because I wasn’t notified about not having money for books, I was shuffled around to talk to different people, or I was completely blown off for a meeting.  It would make the stresses of college much easier if they knew how to handle students problems better.

What kind of person should attend this school?Someone who wants to go into medicine.  Most of the people at my school want to go to medical school when they graduate. Benedictine allows the perfect amount of social experiences and club activities for these students because they also need to study. There are not alot of things to distract students, which is good for the type of environment that the students want.,What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?I brag about the courses I take because they are usually harder than the classes that my friends take. The courses make me feel smart, competent, and I know that I will succeed when I graduate.

Describe your school in one sentence.The school is very boring, there is nothing to do but study unless you are in a sport or club.,What’s the most frustrating thing about your school?There are no recreational areas for students to just relax.There is no wifi available, and the meals on campus are not the best around. There is no transporational avaible for studnets who do not own cars for them to go to stores or downtown for food.
