Makes you wish you were college bound again. Took a tour of Elon, today. A young man named Britt was our guide. He was knowledgeable and gave extra attention to our questions and concerns. I love how he was patient with our son. And we all felt very welcome. Many young people smiled as we walked around. I can see why the students seem so happy. This campus is a dream. Everything just felt right. It’s like they have thought of everything. Every detail is impeccable. The great part: Many choices in good food, we’ll never have to worry about our son. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Thank you for a memorable visit.

Academically it's a Ivy League competitor! The campus is well designed, manicured and comfortably built for living. There is plenty of green space for College life experience without having a City or community intertwined but close enough to 2 larger cities, Greensboro and Raleigh. The faculty are well educated and very good at leading this group of young adults into the workplace and world. There's an emphasis on Study Abroad and allows the students to explore the world in a safe learning environment! Once you get to explore what this location has to offer it's extremely difficult to consider any other option, seriously the University is top notch!

Beautiful school, just be sure to write all your papers with a liberal point of view if you ever want to get good grades. Any shred of a conservative point of view will get you bad grades. Sincerely, a former student.

Can't imagine allowing a counselor at your school to stay there after he just told someone to kill themselves. (Tal Fish)

It’s pretty. Although, the tour and the overall vibe of the school wasn’t my thing at all.

The deleting of our email accounts after years of preaching we were the only university that wasn't ivy that wouldn't delete them on us, is pretty outrageous and misleading. While a beautiful campus with good food, it's SO expensive to attend, and the misleading info while as a student and now as an alumni, just doesn't add up. Don't expect more donations from alum if you can't keep your word and continue to make the cost of the school inaccessible for most.

At the end of the year students participate in the DON'T TRASH IT program. Instead of trashing unwanted clothes bedding and furniture to various charities. Coordinated by student volunteers.

Beautiful campus and really good plan how to accomplish experiential learning environment that prepares kids for the real world. Our 6+ hours of driving for the campus visit was so worth it.

The school cares a lot more about money then they do their students. If the staff mess up they will blame it on you or cover it up. Do everything in writing with this school or they will lie to get out of trouble. Teachers are very mid especially for the price. The only thing this school is really good at is false advertising.

The school is pretty in itself, and offers fun times for the student. However the funding is only allocated to specific programs leaving others to be less diversified and applied. …
