Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

Overall, Albion College is great for a number of reasons. The small campus makes it easy to make friends immediately and meet new people. While living in Albion can be boring at times, making the most of it is sometimes what will leave you with the most memories. There is a sense of community on Albion’s campus that is hard to duplicate anywhere else. This isn’t to say that everyone gets along, but there is a certain bond between all Albion students.

Albion’s liberal arts education is something that also seems to be unique to the College. The professors are approachable, and their excitement for their courses is infectious. Even when you’re taking a class that is not related to your major, you appreciate what you learn and are proud of what you’ve learned in looking back. Beneath the exterior sometimes, Albion is just a down-home friendly kind of place, and a lot of students seek comfort in that and learn to love where they are.

Really Nice

Albion keeps very good care of all of its facilities. The DOW Athletic center is very very nice. Most living areas are awesome. And personally I think our campus has a lot of beautiful buildings.

Shady Town

There are some shady things that go on in the town of Albion. Every now and then the shadiness of the town will cross paths with the college but not very often. There are blue box phones everywhere and Campus Safety is very present.
