DePauw University - Overall ExperienceCollege Prowler0.00
College Prowler Take
DePauw is definitely home to the quintessential college experience. Students are offered a college town that dominates a small town environment, where full focus is placed on over 2,000 young people who call campus home for nine months of the year. The classes and professors keep students very busy but supply a wealth of knowledge and opportunity.
As with all universities, the experience is what students make of it, but DePauw professors and programs seem to make success especially accessible for those who try. The University is also very conducive to building strong social skills and tight knit friendships that tend to carry on long after graduation. The DePauw network extends across the country and maintains ties between classes, houses, and majors.
A DePauw education has a multitude of benefits, and the allowance to try many different fields and explore areas outside your specific major. The different disciplines teach you how to think, learn, and question. Within the cornfields of north western Indiana, you will learn everything from formulas of physics to the values of friendship. DePauw will offer you four of the best years of your life; it’s up to you to take it.

I have absolutely loved my experience at DePauw so far. I wish I wasn’t a senior so I could stay here for three or four more years. It has been the greatest experience of my life, thus far. |

I am thankful that I can go out at DePauw, and not only meet new people with whom I’ll come in contact again, but also see more than an occasional familiar face. I also enjoy getting to be a key part in my small classes. I could never speak out in a discussion group of 100, but I can easily give my input in a seminar of 14. |

It’s been amazing so far, but I’m looking forward to breaking it up by going abroad for a semester. I rarely wish I were somewhere else. The people are what make it what it is. |

I really enjoy DePauw. I have met some very open people, I have been exposed to new cultures and ideas, and I feel that I will receive a valuable education here. Most importantly, I feel comfortable here. |

I know I’m getting a good education that will help me after college. Do I wish there was more to do here? Yes. Do I wish it were bigger? Yes. But I chose to come here, and I haven’t done anything about it yet, so I’m having fun. |
