Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

When asked, "If you had a chance to do it all over again, would they still come to Dickinson College?", almost every student polled said they would do it in a heartbeat. On the whole, Dickinson is remembered by alumni as a place that provided some of the most incredible opportunities in their lives. The College serves as a starting point for not only career success, but for lifetime happiness, as well.

Students come to school here because they are serious about their futures. Academics are always the top priority and everything else comes second to classes and coursework. Thus, be prepared for Dickinson to push you to your limits academically. Dickinsonians are successful in and outside the classroom, and it is not uncommon for a student to play a sport, participate in a club, have an engaging internship, and still maintain their studying. In addition, you’ll learn to expand your social horizons and to indulge the international community through study abroad and a global education at home. Our motto is “Engage the World,” and nothing is more focused and concentrated on at Dickinson. A Dickinson College diploma is more than just a degree—it’s a way of life.

Health & Safety at Dickinson College

Safe as Could Be

Dickinson campus is very safe. I've never felt unsafe or heard of a situation where someone felt unsafe. DPS is present on campus but they aren't here to get students in trouble. You can leave your stuff laying around with no worries and peoples doors are always left unlocked. As far as health services go, it is free but they aren't open on weekends.

Diversity...

Dickinson's diversity is rising. They are aware of how homogeneously white the student body is and they're working to change it. The diverse groups do tend to hang out together, not making the campus overall feel as diverse. One great thing about the diversity at Dickinson is that a lot of the diversity is also international, bringing many different perspectives to campus.
