    The residential life is amazing. There are frequent and a variety of programs. For example, on St. Patrick's day there was a non-alcoholic pub crawl between the buildings and once there was a program where each building represented a different era of time. The RAs are really nice and helpful, but it is really easy to get caught doing anything because the dorms are compact. Also, I like the size since i recognize people in my classes, but at the same time there are always new people to meet. read full review

  • The Runner From Umatilla

    At first glance, the costs might seem a bit too heavy. But the school is so helpful when it comes to applying for aid and scholarships. Not only do they help you figure out how to get money, they show you how to use it and pay it back. read full review
