Gorgeous campus would love to be able to afford the tuition costs. This might be the best school in the area, I walk through here to enjoy the duck pond sometimes. I occasionally utilize their running track. Friendly people here from what I've experienced.

I loved my experience at Bates, and I would choose to go to the same school if I were to travel back in time. I spent hours and hours at the library browsing through interesting books to read, and most importantly, I loved the people working there. Professors are excellent.

Very nice area and nice college. I am not a member but it is a very serene and peaceful area to bike through while getting where I need to go.

Bates was one of three Maine colleges I looked at (the other two were Bowdoin & Colby) and it too, reminded me of a Maine version of Amherst, Williams or Vassar. TOO preppy for me, BUT, Bates does have a pretty campus, although Bowdoin's is prettier.
