Student Responses to Review Topic: Am I Enjoying Being Here

    This institute has a truly unique environment in which learning has the utmost importance but is also healthily balanced by the several IM sports and clubs to join. There is always somewhere on campus where you can get free food (which is important for us poor college kids) and join in fun activities.

    For the most part the people here are great. It is not hard to find great friends. The campus is beautiful and there are always intramural sports going on. I was on 15 teams this past year. I love it.

    There are tons of different clubs and activities you can get involved in which is great because it gives you a chance to do something other than homework! However one of the best things about Rose is the feeling of community. Everyone is so nice and helpful. We even have what we call 'open door' policy which basically means everyone leaves their dorm doors open. This isn't required but it helps build the sense of community and since we have such a small, close-knit community things are rarely stolen.

    It's important to understand that this school is not for someone looking for a larger state school. It's only about 2,000 students for an undergraduate education - but if a close-knit community with emphasis on teaching and creating a network of support and understanding is something you want in a college (as I do), Rose is definitely for you. The Rose staff are always friendly and are never curt. They always want to help and are there for you - this includes faculty, staff and other students (especially in the residence halls). You are surronded by people who enjoy the same types of things you do.

  • Apr-18-2010 I am accepted here and planning to attend soon

    The town is somewhat dead, as compared to other college campus cities I have visited. Terre Haute is in the middle of farm country, and is around 200 miles away from either Indianapolis or St. Louis. The campus is not as big as I expected, but I like them that way (for people that want a big-college experience, this might not be the place for you). No matter how empty the college or the city looks like, I bet that with a little participation in the many school clubs, along with various internships, co-ops, and study-abroad trips, Rose-Hulman can be just as much fun as any other school
