The outlook is almost unanimous: Marquette students could not be more satisfied with their experience at Marquette University. Even if students experienced uneasiness or uncertainty at the start, they almost never regret their decision. Yes, money is an issue, the campus is not all that diverse, and academic opportunities may not be as bountiful as other, larger universities, but hey, nobody’s perfect. Marquette can offer more than you may expect, like the welcoming atmosphere, distinguished faculty, and a noteworthy academic reputation. In the college selection process, Marquette, more often than not, is one of the top picks amid college prospects, due to a number of factors. Sure, students are fast to recognize the drawbacks, but most acknowledge the beneficial qualities Marquette can provide, such as the strong academic foundation, top-quality professors, and an endless amount of entertainment opportunity in a major city location. Most of all, a feeling of small-town community togetherness makes Marquette feel unique to the students here. With all things considered, if you can swing the cost of a Marquette education, then the price is right—come on down. Marquette Student ReviewsWhat's This?Filter:

Marquette has a vast majority of white students; moreover, Milwaukee is one of the most segregated cities in America. Although there are some student organizations which focus on minority groups, a lot more could be done. |

Urban Location
B+
Because Marquette is located in Milwaukee, there is always something entertaining just down the street. We are about a mile away from Lake Michigan, so many students will be down there (when the weather is good), playing frisbee or jogging along the paths. There is never a dull moment in the city. |

Caring Professors
A
I got mono at the start of my freshman year, which put me out of classes for a week and a half. I knew it wasn't going to be easy to get back on track, but I didn't expect my professors to be so understanding. I quickly tried to get back in the groove academically, to a point where I was overworking myself, but when my professors saw this, they immediately put my health first, telling me to take a slow down and get better first. This was a genuine example of the mission of Marquette: men and women for others; truly caring for the person. |
