Student Responses to Review Topic: Am I Enjoying Being Here

  • Caitlin from Newport, NC
  • Dec-25-2011 I am a current student here

    Meredith College has a variety of events every year from Cornhuskin, Ring Dinner, Dances, Formals, Big Sis Lil' Sis, and atheletics. There is always something going on, so there is never a bland weekend. I love how updated the dorms are with suites that share a bathroom instead of a community bathroom. The location is perfect with Crabtree Mall three miles down the road, NC State two minutes down the road, and various shops and restaurants along Hillsborough Street.

  • Dec-19-2011 I am researching this school and have not visited the campus

    With my all,I will enjoy being at Meredith.The fact that it offers Dance studies and theater is the most outstanding opportunity for me because i would love to take part in those fields as minors because i would love to take biology as a major.The fact that undergraduate students are allowed to take two majors is also a `wow` to me.

    The school is really the definition of a community. You'll know almost everyone after just one year, even professors and students you haven't even taken a class with yet. The traditions make the school unique.
