Small University = BIG Reward


Class Size
Smaller classes mean one-on-one relationships with professors. This allows for deeper instruction, and there’s not a line of people when you have a question about the subject matter. Most professors at small universities have an open-door policy, allowing students to come to them for out-of-class help. You are known by your professors as more than just a number, and that helps produce true success for each student.

Family
Your classmates, professors, and other university staff become your family. They make your university your home away from home. When a problem arises, you have a community who knows you and cares to ensure that you are okay. Yes, this means if you miss a class your classmate, several classmates, or even your professor will be sending a call or message your way to ensure everything is alright.

Administration- You’re Not Just a Number
At a small university, it’s not uncommon for most of the student body to know the president and happen to have a conversation with him around campus weekly. The administration is not untouchable; they know and invest in their students, attending their athletic events or concerts. Now, that’s what I call family!

Opportunity
A small university doesn’t lack in opportunities for students to be involved on their campus, in their community, and beyond. Students will often have more opportunities opened up to them to step into leadership positions earlier in their college career. This provides great experience!
Networking Connections
Small universities have their perks! Your professors and fellow students have connections that just may land you the job you were hoping for or the internship experience you need. Knowing people around your campus lends itself to those individuals helping you out any chance they can. Yes, this means when your professor hears that you need an internship they not only wish you luck, but they connect you with the people who already have connections you need, provide you with their connection list, and check in with you to see how the process is coming along.
It is a small world after all!
