Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot If you plan on attending all four years, you will make friendships and relationships with your professors who all know you by name and really do want you to be the best you can be. Every professor is looking out for your best interest. One of our professors used to work for NASA, several have traveled all over the world, and all are amazing professors.
Am enjoying being here The 'home away from home' feel is exactly what this school brings to a student, especially one who is far from home like I am. There is always something to get involved in and it is nice to know every person at your school. It makes you feel safe.
Bang for the buck It is an expensive school, but Beatrice and the other financial aid helpers will definitely do all they can to make it affordable to attend here. Most students here are on scholarships or financial aid. There are always things to get involved in that provide scholarships as well. Definitely worth it!
Tips for prospective students Get involved! The more you go out and meet people, the more enjoyable your college experience will be.
Great for these types of students Come to a Dawg Days and for an overnight visit if you are an athlete. 'Living' the life of the college students will definitely let you know if it was right for you! We hope to see you at CU!

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences cumberland university treats you like a person, not just a number. it is a beautiful campus with lots to do. because it is a small school, the professors at cumberland are able to help students individually and on a personal level.
Tips for prospective students go to a preview day so you can get a tour of the campus and talk to current students about their experience at cu. don't be afraid to ask lots of questions!!!
Academic Rigor cumberland university is challenging academically, but because you have access to tutoring, professors office hours and small classroom size, those who work hard have little trouble making very good grades.
Dorm Life cu just built a brand new residence hall, with key card access, wifi, cable, laundry and over all a comfortable environment. every floor has an ra who is there to help the students with any problems they may have. the residence life office is always extremely helpful and ready to serve the students.
Food and Dining the phillips dinning hall is a beautiful facility!! the food is buffet style, so there is something for everyone.
What to do for fun monday nights are trivial night at cu where you can earn money prizes for knowing random facts. every other tuesday night, our local roxy theater has movie night for cu students: $3.50 for movie, popcorn and a drink. can't beat that. on wednesdays nights our local bowling alley has $1 bowling. thursday and friday nightscu often has some event or special guess come to campus (concert, sporting event, comedian, plays, dance classes, etc.)
Great for these types of students our nursing program is one of the best in the country and any students looking to be a nurse should definitely look into cumberland university!!
Clubs and Activities the international student organization is always holding events, such as a talent show (with $ prizes), dance class (salsa and break dancing), and other fun events.
our baptist collegiate ministries holds a free lunch/bible study every tuesday as well as ping pong night and prayer meetings during the week.Campus Safety our security guards are always present on campus looking out for us. we also have red emergency pillars all over the school that allow you to make a call to security or the local police if you are in trouble.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences Cumberland University has, I think, the best faculty and staff. They answer every question you have and do it to the best of their ability. Cumberland is a 10 on my scale, best choice of schooling for me.
Academic Rigor Academics are challenging, but the professors do everything they can to prepare us for the future.
Clubs and Activities There are so many clubs and orgs to be a part of. We have the best events thanks to all the club and org members.
Campus Safety Campus is constantly monitored, but I think security could do a better job.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences cumberland university offers a very encouraging and prosperous collegiate atmosphere. the university's staff is helpful and competent. overall cumberland university is an excellent place to pursue an education.
Tips for prospective students if you are planning on transferring any time during college, cumberland university is not a good choice. credits are often hard to transfer.
What to do for fun the student programming board on campus offers a variety of activities for students all the time. the university offers greek life. attending the plays, musicals, and concerts are also a fun thing to do on campus. cumberland is also a very sports orientated school, so participating in the crowd at games is enthralling.
Bang for the buck being a private liberal arts college cumberland is expensive. however, they are so helpful when it comes to financial aid. cumberland is definitely worth the money.
Great for these types of students cumberland offers something for everyone. however, cumberland's nursing school is phenomenal.
Clubs and Activities there are numerous clubs to join, and activities taking place all the time.
Greek Life greek life at cumberland may be small but it is such an experience! the people and the philanthropy are not things to be passed up.
Campus Safety i have ever only heard of one incident on campus but it was minor with no injuries.
