This college offers very small class sizes (20-30 students per class). Make the most of this and cultivate a personal relationship with your professor and ask them any questions you may have.

    Roanoke College is a great environment to be in, fill of caring professors and hands-on programs. It is a liberal arts college, so getting used to the INQ system was a bit hard, but it is well worth it in the end. The campus itself is just gorgeous, and I love being there every day.

    Great, small liberal arts college that focuses on a holistic way of learning. Because Roanoke College is comprised of 2,000 students, it's very easy to know everyone on campus! Everywhere you go, you recognize someone

    Roanoke College is a wonderful school. With only 2,100 students and plenty of teachers, all of my classes have a 20:1 or less student-teacher ratio. All of my teachers were easy to find and talk to. As a mathematics major, I also found that there were multiple opportunities to meet and talk to the math faculty thru clubs and Tea Time. The campus is beautiful, and easy to memorize.

    A small, liberal arts college in the small mountain town of Salem, Virginia. It's a beautiful school and if you committ yourself to the education here you can succeed. The friends you make here are for a lifetime
