What is your school best known for?Lehigh is known for its engineers, businesswomen and men, accountants and a great international program. The Bethlehem area and campus is a beautiful place filled with many students walking up and down the hilly location. Lehigh is also known for its price, a very expensive private school, where most students are well off financially. Classes are tough and there is a lot of work to be done, however, if you are a determined student there is much hope for you. No matter what, focus on your goals, get involved in student activities, engage in the community, and find success.Describe your school in one sentence.Lehigh University is a place where you can succeed, a place where all your goals can be met, a place where you can engage in the community, you just have to do it, get involved, and allow yourself the time and space you need to realize your dreams.

What is your school best known for?I believe our school is best known for its engineering program. Although I am not personally in the College of Engineering, I have been questioned by countless people if that is what I am studying at Lehigh because they have heard that the program is superb. Many of my friends have also told me that the deciding factor for choosing Lehigh was that the program here was the best and would provide them with the best education.What do you consider the best thing about your school? Why?The best thing about Lehigh is the flexibility the students have when choosing their majors and minors. Students are given a broad range of classes that they can pick from each semester and are allowed to have a major a minor in different colleges within the university. This allows students to explore many different areas of interest and they are able to fully integrate their interests in a simple schedule.

What do you consider the best thing about your school? Why?The best thing about Lehigh University is that everyone is involved in something outside of their academic life. Whether it is Greek life, an intramural sport, a club, or research, ninety-nine percent of the student body is involved in an extracurricular activity on campus. Since students tend to dabble in all kinds of extracurricular activities, they meet people that they normally would not cross paths with on a daily basis. As more students socialize and create friendships with other students outside of their normal social group, the entire student bodys slowly meshes together and becomes one unified group.Describe your classmates in one sentence.My classmates thrive on the motto, “work hard, play hard”, meaning they are extremely focused on their academics, while simultaneously having a good time and keeping up a social life.
