    Spalding University is a really good school. The staff and professors there are really nice and helpful. The classes offered there are flexible and small and that's why I love it. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

    Tips for prospective students

    I would really consider Spalding University as your top pick for college schools. Of course, first depending on what your major may be. The staff and professors are very helpful in all areas. The campus and class are small and there is not a lot of partying going on.

    Academic Rigor

    The academic rigor is equal for all students and agreeable.

    Dorm Life

    I don't live on campus so I'm not sure what dorm life is like.

    Food and Dining

    I really don't eat on campus, except from the vendor machines. There are plenty of restaurant's near by and within walking distances and affordable.

    What to do for fun

    I'm not sure what fun is for someone else, so I can't say.

    Campus Safety

    Campus safety is great. Security is always near by and numbers for help are posted all around the campus.

    spalding is a small school with a long tradition of quality education dating back over 100 years. faculty and staff really care about the students. the small class size makes for an excellent learning environment.

    Tips for prospective students

    be prepared to get involved in a school that is laid back, but will be challenging because of the way the classes are set up. but if you have any difficulty with writing or math, they have excellent labs for both subjects.

    because it's a small school, it's easy to get to know your way around campus.
    there are lots of organizations to get involved in.

    Academic Rigor

    because the classes are set up on a six week format. classes go fairly quickly. you need to keep up with your work and check your email regularly. most professors make use of the system.

    Dorm Life

    i don't know about dorm life, personally. but i have seem some of the students who do live in the dorms and i would think it is a good way to get to know other students.

    Food and Dining

    there is a dining hall, i ate there once and it was pretty good. there is also a coffee shop in one of the buildings. red roasters sells coffee drinks and snacks. their claim to fame is that their product is certified organic!

    What to do for fun

    student government is always planning something. movie nights and other activities are another way to get to know people.

    this time of year they are starting to prepare for the rat race or the run for the rodents that takes place during the week prior to the kentucky and during the derby festival.

    Bang for the buck

    quality, quality, quality! if you want a quality education, spalding is the place you need to be. it is small enough that are never just a number.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    the run for the rodents is pretty unusual. buildings have names like the tlc which stands for the third street learning center, duh!

    Campus Safety

    spalding has very good security personnel. they also have a service for anyone who needs an escort to their car at night.
