Okay Academics
Ursinus offers an intimate setting where you really get to know your professors if you put in the effort. I can talk to mine about anything from classes to what clothes to buy for vacation. The science facilities are great, but the reason for a lower rating is the availibility of classes. Often times the bio classes you want are full, hence why I am taking only environmental classes this semester because I was unable to get into any bio applicatible to my career. Also problematic is the general majors here, there is no ecology or marine biology, somethign I wish I had considered when applying.

Labtops
Everyone gets a school issued labtop and printer as part of there tuition. They are decent and tech support will fix any problems.

Small School
Everyone knows everyone at Ursinus. And the people you don't know you recognize from seeing them in the (there is only one) dining hall or out at parties. That being said its easy to make friends with people because you are seeing them over and over again in classes and conversations are easy to start. It is not close to Philly like they will make you beleive and almost no one leaves campus. Our school is unique in that almost everyone lives on campus all four years. There are houses that sophmores and juniors usually live in across the street which provides a homey feel.
