Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

By the end of their years here, most students look back and are happy with their choice. They’ve received a good education and generally met some people who they will keep in touch with far into their ‘real’ lives. This love of the school comes about gradually for many students. While some students love it automatically and fit in easily with the relatively homogenous campus, others take longer to find their place and truly start to enjoy themselves.

While many students have a slow start here at Delaware, they all report that once they decided to give it a chance, they found their experience rewarding, not only academically but socially. This University tends to provide a nice balance between a social life and an academic one. There is always plenty of time to hang out and get your work done, so no matter what you are interested in, you have a chance to get it all done. This is the major benefit of attending the University of Delaware.

Overall Experience

The University of Delaware is a great college, and I'm so happy I decided to come here. It has a beautiful campus in a college town, and there's always something to do. Everybody is so nice here, so it's very easy to make friends. Almost any major in any field of study is offered. The classes are challenging, but not extremely difficult. There's a great nightlife scene, however there's also many activities to do on the weekend that don't involve drinking and partying. The University of Delaware is one of those schools where you get a lot for what you pay for. The professors and other staff who work here truly care for the students and want them to have the best college experience they can.

UD Rocks!

I love the University of Delaware! I haven't gotten involved into any serious activities yet because I am just a freshman in my 1st term but I know what I am going to do. The only problem is there's so much around you, you can never get enough of it!

GREAT

I love UD so much!!! Being part of honors makes it amazing because its a great balance between school work and also being able to go out when I want to. I think its an amazing place that really inspires students to take interest in many things and explore through hands on work.
