Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

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 loved DePauw for many...

I have loved DePauw for many reasons. I have been able to play a varsity sport, join a sorority, hold leadership positions on campus, do community service, and get to know my professors, among other things. If a small school appeals to you, then DePauw is a great choice. I would not trade my experience here for anything.

I have a great group of friends,...

I have a great group of friends, I’m getting an excellent education, I have formed many friendly relationships with professors, and I have a lot of fun and learned a lot. The campus is beautiful; I love the personal, small-college atmosphere, and there are a lot of great ways to get involved. DePauw is not going to be the perfect fit for everyone, but I have found it to be a great fit for me.
