What Students Are Saying

Research the classes required for the major. I know a lot of people who are not happy about the classes they are going to have to take, but it can easily be found on the website.
Thomas from Buffalo, NY
Get involved in some of the clubs on campus; the art club, anime club, and English club are all great. I'd avoid the Greek organizations, though; it's much more worthwhile to be in a club with people who share your interests.
Justine from Marathon, WI
Students considering attending Daemen should get organized, and get involved. Organization is the key to success at Daemen. Students have completely packed schedules and the best way to have a low stress experience is to stay organized. Having good organization skills will not only help with scholastics, but also with time management, so that all the extracurricular activities at Daemen can be taken advantage of! College can be stressful, and making sure to maintain social activities outside of the classroom is extremely helpful!
Stefanie from Cassadaga, NY
Visit the campus and take advantage of current students who offer you their email in case you have questions.
Sara from Decatur, IN
If you want a college that helps you for everything included disability, finance problems, or just questions you don;t understand about the college and how it works or want one that is nice and small and diverse then go to Daemen. That old saying teachers said to you back in grade school i repeat to you all. JUST ASK QUESTIONS!!! the staff there can help you understand anything you need. Daemen staff is helpful, caring, and more. If you want a college that like this go to Daemen College.
