Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

Let’s get one thing straight: Beloit is not for everyone—and thank God, because we only have so much room here. There is a certain bond with people who have gone to Beloit, who have seen its idiosyncrasies first-hand, who know the weirdos personally and still keep nicknames for them. A four-year trudge through the thicket of Beloit education will put anyone in shape for a new challenge afterward. Some will say “if I survived Beloit College, I can survive this,” while others will boast “Beloit College has prepared me well to face challenges head on, and it has made me confident that I can survive anything.” Either way, they’re right. Beloit is good at making a paradox out of itself.

People either love Beloit, hate Beloit, or both, but it is pretty much guaranteed that whatever you feel for Beloit, it will be strong. Beloit can definitely provide students with an amazing experience if you use your resources right. Study abroad options are spectacular, and an overwhelming amount of students end up in a different country or a different part of the U.S. at some point during their four years. Beloit most certainly is a school that has the ability to change your life, or at least, it can give you the resources so you can change it up yourself. I’m telling you, for a small school, it’s got a lot of bite to it.

It's a Smorgasbord of Different People

Beloit had a reputation of attracting so called weird, social outcasts. The student population at Belot now has evolved into a more diverse campus. There are many different kinds of people from athletes, actors, musicians and more.

Overall Experience at Beloit College

A-

Wonderful

I truly love Beloit. The academics are nothing to argue with, the professors seemingly go out of their way to make sure you're on the right path- this isn't saying that anything's easy, however, you really do work. There's a great emphasis on writing, but the Freshman seminars really help prepare you for that. My dorm is excellent (i have sinks in my room), and people everywhere are so friendly, which may just be the midwestern atmosphere (im from connecticut). There are downfalls with area, so Beloit is certainly not for everybody, but if you make it work, you will find something perfect for you. It's become my home.

Nightlife at Beloit College

Not Impressive

Nightlife at Beloit is all well and around contained on campus, meaning there are no bars or clubs of any kind in the town of Beloit, or at least that would be serving the undergrads. With that said, there are things to do if you look- C-haus makes a good effort to pull in bands and activities, and they will sell beer to undergrads. The frats throw a good party occasionally (the funnily enough, getting into the Science Fiction Club is more selective than getting into any Frat). There are three frats: Nerds, Bros, and TKE, which throws the best parties. Nightlife depends on what your into, and if you look, you will find something for you.
