    JU is unlike a lot of large colleges. Don't expect overly crowded classrooms and long lines in the on-campus eateries. The only part of the school that isn't built to accommodate the number of students would be the parking lot, so on Sunday-Wednesday, plan to be home as early as possible to minimize the walk from your car to your dorm. The atmosphere is very relaxed; a fair representation of life in the Jacksonville area. read full review

    For me being a Music student I enjoying the small ratio of teacher to student. This allows me to expand my knowledge and grow as a musician. I am able to learn more than if I chose a much larger campus. read full review
