    Overall Nicholls is a great school. Its in a quiet area but the school works on giving its students fun activities to joy but in a safe way. I especially love, free Scranton day. People line up for them, especially if you have a exam you forgot about and need to grab one on the go. And there are lots of professors that will leave you in pure awe. Some of these people have affected my life and opened my mind in the greatest of ways and I thank them for that. This is one school that you may not hear about often, but once you leave it, you will not be able to stop talking about it. GO COLONELS!!!

    I live on campus and have a meal plan and all together with my tuition is about 6500. Everything is pretty cheap here besides textbooks and such.
