The campus is nice and calm although some of the buildings and the dormitory halls could use an update.

Prospective students should definitely take a look at affordablitiy before entirely deciding on Butler. Don't get me wrong it's a great school and I love it I just wouldn't want anyone to get attached and then realize they can't stay because the deficit will be too much when they graduate. Everyone says college shouldn't be about money but the reality is cost is a large concern that should not be overlooked. read full review
