  • Jul-20-2011 I am a current student here

    Work hard play hard is the perfect motto for this school, and I'm loving it. It's also possibly the most friendly place I've ever been. Everyone always has a smile on, because everyone loves being here. Even the professors and faculty are wonderfully nice people. The campus itself is also amazingly beautiful all year round. It's just a happy place to be.

  • May-07-2011 I am accepted here and planning to attend soon

    Lehigh puts a lot of effort into having a lot to do around campus so having 4 years on the same campus is not wasted. I am very excited to have so many options open to me once the school year starts.

    The feeling of attending Lehigh is a unique one, for whenever I leave the campus, I feel as if a part of me is missing. There are a ton of opportunities to get involved around campus and many different groups of people to get friendly with. It is truly an experience unlike any other, and it definitely helps that the campus looks amazing.

    I have never been happier. The campus, social life, and academic program I am in all make me feel that I am taking advantage of everything Lehigh has to offer me.

    The atmosphere on campus is great from the people I've met to the activities offered. I know so many people who have found their niches in completely different areas from theater to sports to engineering clubs and that's what makes the campus so complete. And who doesn't want to be on a campus reminiscent of Hogwarts?
