    Am learning a lot

    If you put yourself out there there is a limitless amount of knowledge to learn in Alfred. its a small town so its quite but there is so much to do and learn. professors are Very helpful if you put yourself in the position to bother them for information.

    Am enjoying being here

    I love Alfred. i have met so many Amazing people that it blows my mind. its one of those weird places you just meet so many amazing people. there are many activities and clubs to attend, and Alfred state students activities are always trying to make their students have a great time , for instances april 13th 2011 we are having Sick puppies CONCERT WOOT :D. and last year this time Kevin hart came and technically beta tested his jokes on us LOL.

    Bang for the buck

    Dont get me wrong i love alfred, but to be honest i wish i was in a college with almost more funding so they could better support their students. Res life here is awesome and all but the dorms are not that great. its a bang for you buck if you put yourself in the position to enjoy it all.

    Tips for prospective students

    ITS COLD BRING WARM THINGS ! Don't think winter is over until the sun is out and its 80 degrees... its almost April and its still snowing and very cold... its going to be like this for a while.

    Great for these types of students

    Nursing, Geeks, Greeks, alfred is awesome but not for everyone... you have to be open minded if you want to love alfred

    Do not be involved in the wrong groups/ crowds, and study- do not leave studying to the last minute.

    Alfred offers a wide variety of activities to get involved with. Extracurricular activities are what make me focus on wanting to be in college because I have to have grades to be involved. Overall, I enjoy Alfred and am glad I picked it.

    Tips for prospective students

    The most important thing is to make sure they have activities you are interested in. Education is important but it isn't everything. If you aren't involved in other things, you'll go crazy.

    Academic Rigor

    I am challenged every single say. I feel like I am always working on something and never have a week to just take it easy.

    Dorm Life

    I do not like that I feel like I am constantly being watched by RAs and RDs. I also do not like that it is so hard to live off campus.

    Food and Dining

    Overall, I feel that Alfred offers a wide variety of food.

    What to do for fun

    Greek Life is a huge part of my life, sports, video game clubs, working, becoming an RA, and so many more.

    Bang for the buck

    Generally, I feel that I am getting the most out of what I paid for.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    Hot Dog Day is the best tradition from the school that I have seen

    Great for these types of students

    Students who like to get involved
    Students who are open to trying new things
    Students who like to be challenged by professors

    Clubs and Activities

    Greek Life
    WINS
    ASME
    ASHRE

    Greek Life

    Literally, the best thing I have ever done. My gpa is 10x higher because of it. I have learned how to become a better leader and overall better person.

    Campus Safety

    As long as you think about it, it is very safe. The people who aren't safe are the ones that don't think they have to think about it. Everyone has to think about it. I have never felt unsafe here.

    this school has great food, average dormitories, but excellent, caring teachers who are willing to donate a lot of time to their students. this school is great for hands on learning as well as a great community to be a part of. the greenhouse and farm need a little work, but that is in the process of being done.

    Tips for prospective students

    don't come into this school feeling like you might be overwhelmed. it's a great place to start.

    Academic Rigor

    the core science courses are really challenging. the teachers are engaging and encourage students to get in the labs outside of class.

    Dorm Life

    the dorms are adequate. the vary in size significantly. don't pick mackenzie if you like to bring a lot of stuff with you.

    Food and Dining

    this is the best school dining hall food i've ever had. they have a lot of variety at the terrace buffet, as well as many chain restaurants around campus.

    What to do for fun

    go hiking behind alfred university's campus! or join the orc and go on biking/skiing trips. allegany county has so much to see outdoors.

    Great for these types of students

    great for students who like hands on work. especially the wellsville campus.

    Will learn a lot

    When i first went to visit alfred, i thought it was just going to be another boring campus, but it tends not to be. The professors there are friendly and they are very helpful. The staff are as well. The program that i've been accepted into closed down, but alfred offered me a deal that i could still enter another program and still get my degree in that area. Alfred is also flexible in helping students set up there schedule.

    Will enjoy being here

    The campus is very nice they have sports teams. Great gym, the food is nice, and everyone gets along great because it is small.

    Bang for the buck

    Althought the price my be, its worth it with all the programs that they have here.

    Did learn a lot

    This school is really focused on helping you 'Hit the ground running'. The school has an extreme scope on what you will be doing the moment you graduate with a degree. Not only that, but while you are there they prepare you for your future career and provide many internship and job opportunities.

    Did enjoy being here

    I loved every minute of Alfred.

    Bang for the buck

    Great SUNY school!

    Tips for prospective students

    Focus on your career. This school has a lot of activities to offer which is a great thing for student looking to get involved in the college community

    Great for these types of students
