We challenge you academically because we back it up with great support. Take advantage of tutoring and writing support on campus, so you don't need to stress about your least-favorite subjects. Find community in an identity-based student club such as the Black Student Union or Queer Alliance, then sign up for an interest-based club to nerd out about your favorite hobbies such as video games, gardening, student radio, and more.

Our faculty-to-student ratio is 1:11, so you'll get the attention and help you need throughout your time at college. It doesn't stop at office hours-your
favorite professors will know you by name and even offer mentorship as your faculty advisor.
