    Am learning a lot

    The five stars are not a joke. I am currently a freshman at Lindenwood University and I have learned so much within my first semester. Already I have learned with hands on experiences and in the classroom with terrific teachers. Those who are reading this should look further into the school because it is and excellent environment for both a student and student athletes because even the coaches work with their athletes and their education.
    Am enjoying being here

    I am enjoying my time here at Lindenwood University because I have already met many great people because no body at this school is shy and everyone knows one another. It is a smaller University but there is still a large amount of students and what is helpful is that the class rooms are not very big, meaning your teachers can get to know you a little better, allowing them to also help you beneficially in the class.
    Bang for the buck

    At Lindenwood University students definitely get the bang for their buck. I did not think I was going to get to go to college, but with a sports scholarship, grants, and work and learn opportunities, Lindenwood University has made it possible for me to pursue my dream in Athletic Training and to continue to play my favorite sport in the world.
    Tips for prospective students

    Always take opportunities that appear. Sometimes people say it is a joke or that it is pointless to go talk to advisers, career center people, and teachers, but if you want to truly succeed and get ahead of others then go and talk to them. They know information that others do not. With the Career center, they can help students look for jobs or internships because they know sometimes students can not go apply immediately everywhere. The Career Center is an excellent opportunity and so is talking with staff members.
    Great for these types of students

    Lindenwood University has a diversity of students, younger or older, and students from across the globe. You get to know these people and realise how similar you are even though you from two completely different places. Almost everyone at Lindenwood University is even an athlete which makes it easier to find common interests and the teachers teach students so well that anybody can understand.

    Am learning a lot

    I feel challenged everyday by the material itself and also by my professors to think outside the box.
    Am enjoying being here

    I really enjoy the smaller school feeling. I love how the campus is outside and the exercise you get just walking from class to class. I enjoy all of the people there. Everyone is friendly. I feel like the majority of the professors really care about how you're doing.
    Bang for the buck

    Everything has been pretty reasonable, and out of everywhere I applied they offered me the biggest scholarship.
    Tips for prospective students

    Talk to everyone you can in admissions to see what you can get for scholarships. They truly are there to help!
    Great for these types of students

    Am learning a lot

    I am definitely learning a lot! I never had more than 30 students in any of my classes and it creates a great learning environment. Your teachers actually know your name and are really willing to work with you.
    Am enjoying being here

    Except for the crazy MO weather, I do love it here!
    I love the campus. A new building dedicated to students just opened. It is a great place to relax, hang out with your friends, play pool, basketball, or whatever.
    Bang for the buck

    I think pretty much everyone here gets some kind of scholarship.
    Tips for prospective students

    Be open and ready to experience new things. It's not home or high school anymore. Grow up, get out of your comfort zone, and learn new things.
    Some activities might not fit your standards, but if you give it a shot, you might enjoy it!
    Great for these types of students

    Pretty much everyone! There is people from all over the US attending that school, and also from many, many parts of the world (including myself!)

    Bang for the buck

    I really enjoy attending Lindenwood University. I love the small school feel, with the big city atmosphere of the location. The classes are small, which means great teacher-student interactions.
    Tips for prospective students

    Lindenwood is a great school, in a great location. Things to consider are location, class size, quality of education, and atmosphere of the beautiful historic campus.
    Academic Rigor

    The academic courses are challenging, and require lots of work, however, the teacher are willing and able to help due to the small class sizes.
    Dorm Life

    Dorm life at Lindenwood is strict, but for a reason. There are no co-ed dorms on campus, to ensure the safety and responsibility of students. The campus had many new dorms, and also many historic dorms for a variety of housing options.
    Food and Dining

    The school has two dining hall options, one grab-n-go lunch stop, and three coffee shops on campus. One dining hall is all you can eat, while the other is pay as you go. The coffee shops are great for a relaxing stop in between classes.
    What to do for fun

    Lindenwood offers many intramural options in the brand new student activities building. The university also hosts several concerts and festivals throughout the year. Lindenwood is also only a 30 minute drive from downtown St. Louis, which boasts an array of activities, ranging from professional sports, clubs, shopping, and dining.

    Lindenwood is a small university, but the connections you make with people are huge. The classroom sizes are small and the teachers are very caring. Also the foreign language department is very challenging, but well taught.
    Tips for prospective students

    There are a lot of foreign students at the university so I would advise getting to know them, they provide insight about different cultures.
    What to do for fun

    Main street st. charles has good night life and also the random events put on by sororities around campus.
    Greek Life

    They are very involved in campus life, inside and out.

    Lindenwood, and its teachers are amazing. I can ask any of my teachers about anything I need help with, and they will take whatever time is needed to make sure that I understand the information. The price for the level of education I'm getting is great.
    Tips for prospective students

    Have a good GPA, great work ethic, and be willing to work hard and learn alot. You get out of it what you put into it.
    Academic Rigor

    It can be tough at times, but not overwelming.
    Dorm Life

    Dorms are clean, quiet, and a great place to study. The other students in my building are very helpful, and we all share information in subjects that we understand well.
    Food and Dining

    The food at Lindenwood is great. Lindenwood has many food options to pick from, as well as a few cofee shops.
    What to do for fun

    Lindenwood has two gyms to workout in, three basketball courts that students can use at pretty much any time, an ice rink that students can use for free (skates included,) go for walks around campus, participate in any number of clubs, go to movie nights, go to the game room, and much much more.
    Bang for the buck

    The price paid for Lindenwood is well worth it. Great people. Great teachers. Great place.
    Great for these types of students

    Students of all types will do very well at Lindenwood
    Clubs and Activities

    Lindenwood has a lot of clubs to pic from. I'm sure we have a club to suit everyone. And if we don't, it's easy to start one.
    Greek Life

    Lindenwood does have Greek life, but I don't know much about it.
    Campus Safety

    In my time at Lindenwood, I haven't heard of any major safty issues.

    lindenwood has been an amazing college to attend, and i should know because this is the third university i have attended. i finally feel comfortable at a school, and i feel like i am actually getting the education i am paying for. when i graduated high school i would have never imagined attending lu, but i am so glad it has found its way back to me.
    Tips for prospective students

    feel free to ask questions! all of my professors are amazing and since the school is fairly small, my professors are able to know me by a first name basis and help me out when ever i need them.
    Academic Rigor

    i have been in three broadcast journalism programs and lindenwood's program is by far the best. i actually had hands on experience the first day of classes. also, their equipment is top notch, so i'm able to practice on equipment people are using in my field today.
    Dorm Life

    all of the dorms are either male only or female only. there are visitation hours every week and weekend, so it's nice to know that i have a place to work on homework without distractions.
    Food and Dining

    lindenwood just opened a new facility geared only toward its students. the facility has a dining hall that is laid out in a mall food court fashion, so everyone can choose exactly what they want. there is also a second dining hall in the main academic building, as well as grab-in-go options all over campus.
    What to do for fun

    i love going to downtown saint charles and eating dinner on main street with my friends. the nightlife is great with live music, and it's very close to campus.
    Bang for the buck

    lindenwood is a little more expensive than a state college, but i honestly believe that the education i am getting at lindenwood is well worth my money.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    football is fairly big at lindenwood. our football team just went d2, and games are a lot of fun to attend with friends. we also have rallies and bonfires before big games.
    Great for these types of students

    students who want hands on experience and teachers who have worked in their field of study should attend lindenwood university.
    Clubs and Activities

    there are so many clubs on campus, it would take forever to list them all. if you are interested in something, there is bound to be a club for you, and if there isn't, the school is always willing and excited to add additional clubs to it's university.
    Greek Life

    greek life has grown rapidly this past year adding a new fraternity and sorority to it's list. delta tau delta and zeta zeta zeta are looking for new members as well as many other fraternities and sororities.
    Campus Safety

    saint charles is a great city with a low crime rate. i never feel nervous walking around campus or even to my car. campus security is always driving around and willing to help.

    lindenwood university is very beneficial learning environment. the classes are smaller than larger universities therefore, it allows us a students to become more personable with the instructors. at some colleges the classes are so large the professor doesn't know the student as an individual. they take time to work with you and provide assistance if needed. so far my first year experience has been great.
    Tips for prospective students

    study, study, study. take advantage of your free time to read and indulge yourself in whatever needs to be done to prepare for class. if you don't understand something don't be afraid to ask questions. it is said if you don't ask you won't know.
    Academic Rigor

    again study,study, study and read so that you are prepared for class.
    Dorm Life

    the rooms are a little small as most dorms rooms are however, make the space your own. dorm life isn't too bad. visitors must sign in and out upon entering the downstairs lobby.
    Food and Dining

    college food is pretty good. of course its not your moms home cooking. you learn what your likes and dislikes are. sure you will be ordering plenty of pizza, especially on the weekends.
    What to do for fun

    hang out in fellow students rooms and attend athletic events.

    lindenwood has small classes in a wide range of disciplines. the professors all seem genuinely interested in the success of their students. my adviser is very helpful and very involved with my academic progress.
    Tips for prospective students

    keep in touch with your instructors and your adviser. the better they know you, the harder they'll work to help you out.
    Academic Rigor

    depends on the class, of course, but i definitely feel like i'm getting a good education.
    Dorm Life

    i'm living off campus.
    Food and Dining

    i don't eat in the cafeteria. the on-campus coffee shops have decent food but the coffee is awful.
    What to do for fun

    lots of intramurals, not as many student organizations as i would like though.
    Bang for the buck

    much lower tuition than the major st louis schools. no tuition increase for out-of-state students, which i am. good instructors, small classes and a great campus.
