    Am learning a lot

    The professor to student ratio helps a lot in assisting the learning process in any and all classes at Trevecca. Even in my class of seventy-five students my Professor is very good at making the class seem smaller by generating discussions. In my Graphic Design class for my major the learning is even more specialized with a class of around ten people.

    Am enjoying being here

    Movies in the Quad, Courtship week, Celebrity Skate Night, and those are just a very small number of things that Trevecca's student elected Student Body Government helps to put on throughout the semester. The first week of school, Welcome Week, was welcoming in so many ways with a slip and slide beside Mark's Guest house and a large birthday party for President Boone I had very few moments in which I was bored! I grew up hearing my parents and their friends from college talk about their wonderful experiences at Trevecca and how much fun they had in college so I had high expectations coming into this year and those expectations were definitely surpassed.

    Bang for the buck

    As far as private colleges and especially Nazarene colleges go Trevecca is less expensive than many others. Plus you get to live in Nashville, just minutes from downtown Nashville! The social life here and the instant feeling of fitting in and feeling at home are obvious as soon as you start going out to different events on and off campus.

    Tips for prospective students

    Study for you ACT and take it a couple times to get your best score, the scholarship money will make all the difference for you, it certainly has for me!

    Great for these types of students

    Students that want to feel at home in their college and want to feel like they are an important part of the school they attend. If you want a personal education form administrators and teachers that really care about your success Trevecca is the place for you!

    Education here is great, the teachers are just pouring out knowledge

    Am enjoying being here

    Student life is amazing, there are always fun activities going on, there is free study sessions and study guides.

    Bang for the buck

    There is a clinic that you can get medicine when you need it for almost nothing, the cafeteria has amazing food, the teachers are involved in not just classes but after hours activities, and it is a beautiful campus.

    Tips for prospective students

    -Aim high for ACT score
    -Pace Yourself
    -Always Ask for Help, it's there!
    -Get a room and get it fast!

    I love the staff my advisor really cares and all the teachers just want you to succeed. It is smaller class sizes so all of my questions are answered.

    Am enjoying being here

    I was nervous at first but once I got here and settled in I am so happy that I came. I love the atmosphere and the people that I am with.

    Trevecca has been a wonderful experience for me. You will find a community that wants to accept you and learn from you, if you are willing to seek it out. The professors actually care about their students here, too!

    Tips for prospective students

    Don't just sit in your dorm! Get out and meet people - there's something for everybody here. Before you sign up, read the student handbook. Most of the people I know who have not enjoyed their time at Trevecca were people who were not aware of the restrictions (but they really aren't that bad).

    Academic Rigor

    I took most of my gen eds before transferring, but I have been satisfied with the quality of the classes! I am an education major, and LOVE the classes and the professors. I hate busy work, but I do not feel that we do much of that here.

    Dorm Life

    Dorms are.... dorms. At Trevecca, the dorms have two girls to a room and two rooms to a suite, adjoined by a bathroom. As long as you are respectful, you'll be just fine. There is almost always something to do, and the RAs are kind and easy to talk to.

    Food and Dining

    The continuous meal plan is nice! You can go into the caf as many times as you like between 7am and 7pm. There are things that could be improved, but the staff is willing to listen and make adjustments. They are pretty good at accommodating people with food allergies.

    Campus Safety

    I've never felt unsafe on campus. Trevecca isn't in a great part of town, but we are one of the most secure campuses in the state!

    Trevecca has a very judgemental environment. It is overpriced for the quality of education. Trevecca does not have a very good rate of equality among students.

    Tips for prospective students

    The required Biblical Faith classes are very hard, even though they try to make them seem as though anybody could take them and be successful.

    Academic Rigor

    I am a math major and there is only one math teacher teaching almost all of the required classes, and he is not thorough, and gets very mad if you ask questions at all.

    Dorm Life

    The dorms have a lot of rules, and the resident assistants give out fines to everybody constantly except the residents that are their friends, and happen to be the ones making the most noise at three in the morning.

    Food and Dining

    I find hair in my food, and plastic packaging pieces constantly, but the workers are very nice

    What to do for fun

    Everybody usually goes home on the weekends and there aren't many people left around so the school doesnt have any weekend activities for those still on campus. Students aren't go into places where they will be in the presence of social dancing or alcohol, even if they aren't participating. So a lot of downtown is off limits. All in all there isn't much to do.

    Bang for the buck

    Although Trevecca isn't the place for me a lot of people who are from close around love it because they get to be near their friends and family and play sports.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    There is a small homecoming parade at the beginning of basketball season because we don't have a football team.

    Great for these types of students

    Campus Safety

    There is security but when called they tend to take a very long time to come to wherever you are unless its a really big emergency then they might come faster. They do try and keep criminals off the campus the best they can.

    Will learn a lot

    This University features a well-rounded education with focuses on religion. Religious world-view permeates most classes.

    Will enjoy being here

    Located in Nashville it's a short distance from large attractions, but it's campus is small and student life can be dull...unless you like sdkating in costume.

    Bang for the buck

    I suggest saving, as well as applying for as many scholarships as possible. For a Nazarene University it's a great save, but overall it can be pricey for smaller pocket books.

    Did learn a lot

    The small classes are the best. The general education classes were not small but I manage not to get lost among all the other students.

    Did enjoy being here

    Yes, great school environment. It is almost like a small family. It is a traditional college experience. There is a curfew for all students.

    Bang for the buck

    Scholarships do help and you should apply early.

    Am learning a lot

    Trevecca offers a wide range of classes, majors and minors. There really is something for everyone here. The professors actually care about each individual student and are willing to take the time to help them. Not only am I learning a lot in the classes I am taking, but I'm learning a lot through the relationships I've made and through the Christian environment on campus.

    Am enjoying being here

    The professors are wise, insightful people. It's great to get to know them. There is a wide variety of students on campus, so there are many interesting people to meet. There are also lots of on-campus activities and service projects to get involved in. It's truly a special place.

    Bang for the buck

    The tuition is extremely high for me, but I've taken out loans and have received some grants and scholarships. It was a big decision, but after a semester here, I haven't regretted it. The services, campus, people, education and Christian environment are worth it.

    Tips for prospective students

    - Save up as much money as you can ahead of time
    - Look for scholarships
    - Don't room with a friend from high school (thankfully, I do not know this from experience)
    - Ask questions
    - Get to know new people

    Great for these types of students

    - Music Lovers (5 minutes from Downtown Nashville)
    - Want a smaller school and campus
    - Want a Christ-centered environment
