What Students Are Saying

The academics at the College of Idaho are not to be taken lightly. With the development of our PEAK program, students are not only encouraged, but mildly forced to distribute their majors and minors. By obtaining such a diverse education, students will be well-rounded and gain the full benefits of a liberal arts education. As a current student, taking such a variety of courses is helping me figure out what I want to do later in life. This pertains to class difficulty because you may be required to take some classes that are new, and difficult. Most professors also take attendance daily, and deduct grade points should you not be present. It's a very high school-like system, but it shows that the professors care.

Like I said College is HARD! However, that does not mean it is not fun. It can be fun and most definitely fulfilling. At the C of I we have many College Community activities that bring us together, and give us excuses to take reasonable breaks and make relationships, but as far as the learning goes, the profs. are thinking about what is going to get you to think harder and question things. They want you to be a thinker; a well rounded citizen who doesn't go into the world with ignorance. The work load can be huge at times especially towards the end of semester, but it is totally worth it. You just have to except that fact that success means hard work. If you can accept that and act on it then you' be just fine.

Challenging, but not impossible as long as you think ahead and stay on top of it. You will receive a major and three minors and they push you and expect that you can do that in four years. With your adviser's help it will be easy.
