Categories Rating Comments In three sentences SUNY Cobleskill is a great school and gives students great opportunities. It is a very diverse school but the least judgmental place that I've ever been in my life. People are very friendly and the teachers are wonderful.
Tips for prospective students This school is an agricultural school. Therefore, it's a lot of farm. If you are looking for a big city school, this isn't the school for you. The classes are small and the teachers are wonderful!
Academic Rigor The Academic's at Cobleskill are wonderful. The advisers make everything very clear and help you go down the right path that you are interested in.
Dorm Life At Cobleskill dorm rooms are kind of small but it is college, so you shouldn't expect huge rooms. Some dorm rooms have bigger rooms then others but the RA's and RD's make the experience wonderful.
Food and Dining Prentice and Hodder are my two favorite places to eat. Champlin is more of a buffet style. It really just depends on what kind of foods you are interested in.
What to do for fun There are lots of clubs and there are always comedians and movies to watch on campus. If you have nothing to do, there is a rec center in each dorm room and plenty of friends you can make within walking distance!
Bang for the buck I mean college these days is pretty expensive but Cobleskill's expenses is well worth it. You get a good education for a decent price.
Great for these types of students This school is great for agricultural students but also has a great early childhood education program!
Campus Safety The UPD is out at all times and they are always willing to help a person in need!

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences SUNY Cobleskill is a well rounded school. It is are committed to making the best out of its students with the supplies and resources it has. The school cares about students education (academics), safety (residence halls), exploration (different clubs) and many other aspects.
Tips for prospective students The school itself isn't as big as other SUNY schools, and it has limited resources. However, the majority of the instructors are excellent, and make the best use out of the resources the school does have. Whenever you are unsure of something, don't hesitate to ask the instructor or even the tutors in the library. If you're having a problem with somebody in the building or on your floor go to the Resident Assistant or the Resident Director of the building.
Academic Rigor At the beginning of each semester, the teacher tells the students the syllabus. The majority of the time, the class sticks to the schedule. The instructors are usually there for the students in case they need help. If an instructor fails to come to class, the school finds a replacement and the class goes on.
Dorm Life The residence halls are safe and welcoming. There is a sense of community within the buildings. There are programs going on almost every night of the week.
Food and Dining There are a few different dining halls, which offer a semi-limited range of foods. The dining halls are starting to shift their menu to a more healthy and nutritional one. Any allergies or specific suggestions are taken into consideration.
What to do for fun During the week the Resident Assistants have programs that are either educational or community builders to bring people together. Also during the week there is a building called Brickyard Point that has a different activity going on each night of the week.
Great for these types of students SUNY Cobleskill is well known for Agriculture, working with John Deere. I would recommend students who want to seriously excel in Agriculture to come here. Business and Graphic Design are also two well known majors.
Clubs and Activities There is a wide range of clubs at SUNY Cobleskill. Whether it's culinary, outdoors, getting to know international students, or even archery, a long list is available and the school supports clubs greatly.
Greek Life Greek Life isn't recognized by the school. Any sororities or fraternities that are available are all underground.
Campus Safety The school is extremely safe, there are emergency poles in several different places on campus. UPD (University Police Department) is always around in case anything happens, even if it's late at night and somebody doesn't want to walk alone, they can ask UPD to accompany them. The walkways are well lit at night as well.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences The College has its issues but most of the staff is passionate. The food could be healthier, its a job trying to find food good for you that tastes good here. Other than that it helps open opportunities that most usually do not get.
Tips for prospective students Be ready to deal with the food, its not all good. Make sure to visit all of your resources, its really good to know people. And buy nice sneakers the campus is built on a hill.
Academic Rigor The School is not the easiest school around but it is not full of back breaking sleepless nights. The campus does provide a series of difficult courses if you are to pursue streamlined bachelor degree. From my experience nothing is terribly hard before the 300 level courses.
Dorm Life The dorms are not too bad, but they are strict. You cannot have guests in freshman dorms during the week, but in upperclassman housing you can have guests up to three times in a row during the week. In addition problems include not being able to control heat in upperclassman dorms, but the experience is overall enjoyable.
Food and Dining I personally do not like the food here. The choices are never really healthy, and sometimes it does not seem fresh. Specialty dinners were always extravagant and worthwhile but on average its just sandwiches.
What to do for fun For fun we have a student activity building called Brickyard Point, which houses activities every day of the week. If your not as into going to dances or activities there are comedians, musicians and sports events to attend. For everyone else who does not enjoy the above activities own a computer with games they enjoy.
Bang for the buck You wont be wowed by the experience but you definitely wont be disappointed either.
Great for these types of students Aggies, Pre-Vet, and Business
Clubs and Activities They are around but not everyone utilizes them.
Campus Safety UPD and SI (a student assistant program) help keep it safe. No major incidents

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences i am very impressed with the level of education i've recieved here. the faculty of the plant science dept. are outstanding on both an academic and personal level. i'm learning more than i ever thought i would, and having alot of fun doing it; we get hands-on experience as well as lectures.
Tips for prospective students don't be afraid of your professors, if you like your advisor, chances are you will become friends, if you don't, it's ok to change. if you take entomology, start your bug collection early. try to arrange your schedule so you're taking at least one class you can ace, one 4.0 can save your gpa in case you tank other classes.
Academic Rigor this is college. some classes may seem easier than others, some harder, but you will have to work. if you're falling behind or can't understand something, tell your professor right away so he/she can help you.
Dorm Life i am a commuter student, this doesn't apply.
Food and Dining the food is varied and tasty.
What to do for fun i am an old commuter, i go home.
Bang for the buck other colleges and many government and private companies favor
cobleskill students due to our well-rounded, practical education.Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus you may just see a professor walk through your lecture with a piece of aluminum foil on his head, looking for the mother ship...........
Great for these types of students students of all ages who really want to learn something that they can use in real life.
Clubs and Activities wide variety of clubs campus wide. something for everyone.
Greek Life no greeks.
Campus Safety i've been here nearly four years, and know of no serious incidents on campus. upd are strict enforcers.
