    cardinal stritch university is a private college that has a nice atmosphere and great teachers. the class sizes are small and the teachers really care if you are doing well in classes.
    Tips for prospective students

    try to get as much general education credits finished really soon so you aren't scrambling to get them done during your senior year. this is really important.
    Academic Rigor

    as a freshman, i can say that some of the classes are a little easy and not very challenging. however, there are some classes that really do challenge you and require studying.
    Dorm Life

    the people that live in the dorms are really nice. both dorm buildings are quite nice and both have thier good points.
    Food and Dining

    the union and the coffee shop are very nice and have good food. the main cafeteria doesn't always have very good food and doesn't have a huge variety at times.
    What to do for fun

    there is a free movie night every thursday. the dorms have events going on each week and there are some general activities for the whole student body to participate in. there are also many things to do off campus.
    Bang for the buck

    being a private college, it is very expensive. however, there are a lot of scholarships available and the financial aid department does try to help people find the best scholarships possible.

    Greek Life

    It is a great private school. The teachers are very nice and they get to work with you individually if you need because of the smaller class sizes. I love being able to go to college and playing college soccer here.
    Tips for prospective students

    Try to do your best in high school and the ACT, because if you get a high enough score on both you can get a really sweet guaranteed scholarship.
    Academic Rigor

    Very interesting, challenging, and fun classes in all areas.
    What to do for fun

    Am learning a lot

    All of the teachers are very helpful, and I learned many things, rangin from a bit of middle english to tap dancing.
    Am enjoying being here

    This campus is fun, it has great students who, from all different fields, are able to socialize and interact with one another. There is constantly something going on, and there are many different activities for a student to get into with little or no problems.
    Bang for the buck

    It's pretty pricey, but there are a lot of scholarships that stritch itself will give out, and they're pretty easy to get, with not a lot of competition.
    Tips for prospective students

    The only problem with stritch is its business/financial aid departments. The people there are very 'by the book' and you will have to talk to them often, remind them of what they need to do, and keeping track of your credits yourself never hurts. They are the only inefficient people there.
    Great for these types of students

    Every kind!!! :D There is a sports group, a theatre group, a D&D group, a writer's group, a partying group. I you below to any group, or any mix of groups, they will have your group there. Whatever you like, there is someone there with the same passion. We have clubs for anime, for mtg, for sporting events, and...well, just about everything really.

    Will learn a lot

    The professors here are available to help on an individual-level, and will do their best to help you succeed and reach your goals.
    Will enjoy being here

    CSU is a small, private university with a very positive atmosphere. When I stepped on campus, the first thing I noticed was their students, who would reach out to me and say hello. Very friendly staff and student body -councilors are also very helpful and personable. My experience started with them, and overall, it's one of the biggest reasons I chose to attend Stritch.
    Bang for the buck

    Although CSU has a high sticker price, a high percentage of students receive scholarships, loans, and grants that easily knock down the price barrier. In most cases, money won't be a problem if you are serious about attending CSU.
    Tips for prospective students

    -Take a campus tour
    -Meet with your admissions councilor

    **One of the best things about Stritch: Everything is connected, (minus one of two residence halls and two other buildings dedicated to specific studies -no more than two minute walk from Main Campus) -SO for the most part, you won't have to worry about stepping out into the frigid WI winters! =)
    Great for these types of students

    -Students interested in the Nursing / Medical field.
    *Stritch is known for it's Nursing Program; as they offer all degrees, ranging from ADN (Associates) to MSN (Masters) Degrees.

    -Students who will be involved with the community. (Stritch is an awesome school, and if you like to be engaged in group activities and social events, you'll love it here.)
