Very Good Academics

The school makes sure to provide classes that help you gain knowledge in your major. In addition, breadth requirements enable students to take courses outside of there majors in order to become more well-rounded students and people in general. The professors at this school are very knowledgable, well-educated and generally willing to help any student.

Nightlife Is Great for All Ages

Parties are definietly a big part of the Udel nightlife. There is never a weekend where parties aren't going on. These parties are usually always thrown by a frat, sport or club. Rarely, do people ever get rejected from parties, sometimes guys will have to pay to get in, but its usually just a couple of dollars ($3). The bar scene is great for students who are 21 and students who have cars have the option of driving to nearby cities (Philly, Baltimore, D.C, New York) to go to bigger night clubs. For students who don't like to party there are usually coffee houses and other non-drinking events on the weekends as well as the weekdays. Transportation is accessible here, however since parties are in close proximity to dorms most students just walk. House parties are bigger here than bars/clubs, but the school does offer both. Students who wish to drink during the week will generally not find it hard to find a place to go. Nightlife is a huge part to this campus

Buses and Trains Are Very Accessible

Udel has a great campus busing system. Although most students will opt to walk or ride there bikes to class, the school does have buses that run on consistent schedules. Also, these schedules can be easily tracked using mobile apps/twitter. The campus bus can also take students to the DART bus station if they wish to go places off campus such as the Christiana Mall. A train station is located right inside Newark is affordable and efficient. Students who live in nearby states such as New Jersey or New York can use this train to get home

Not Much to Worry About

Newark has some problems with crime, but students should not feel unsafe on campus. Most crimes are thefts so students should watch out and keep a close eye on their things. Small thefts and robberies happen here occasionally, but I have never meet anyone who was a victim of a more serious crime.

Campus Is Not Very Strict

Getting away with drinking/partying is not difficult here. Campus police are visible on campus, but they do not bother students unless that student is acting like a drunken idiot. Also, the school's amnesty policy helps keep underage students who are caught drinking out of facing legal troubles

No Great, but Getting Better

The overall student population is white. However, there are definitely people who add to the diversity of the school. This school has a fairly large gay population which is well-recepted on campus. Also there are a good amount of asian students on campus. From an economic standpoint students range from upper-class to lower class. Diversity here is not great, but is growing every year.

Variety of Options

Main street is packed with options to satisfy any students needs. Ranging from italian to indian to Japanese, Newark offers a variety of cuisine. Also since the school is located so close to Wilmington, Philly and Baltimore a student can venture to some of these cities to expand their food options even further.

Typical Northeast Weather

Weather is pretty standard around here. You get to experience every season
