Kenyon College

Pros: intensity and personalness of experience
Cons: can be like living ina fishbowl

I graduated from Kenyon in 1997 with an honors degree in psychology.
When I first visited the school, I was planning on doing so to have a practice interview - to gear up for schools I was really "serious" about. Kenyon just happened to be...

Pros: name, atmosphere, class sizes (to some extent), lots of financial aid your first years
Cons: little attention, many requirements, no credit transfer, little aid help

okay... so this place worked its innitial magic on me, like it does with a lot of its students. This place shows pics of a lot of people and the admissions people... well... they are the tops! Totally friendly and promise a lot and give you tons of...

Pros: large, air-conditioned, liberal
Cons: a little too small for a good TV (and no cable)

The dorms here are great!
The rooms are big enough to house everything you need (i.e. computer, cappuccino machine, bed, stereo), although not quite big enough for the luxuries (i.e. a TV... unless you have a 13', sadly, I don't, so I don't have a...

Pros: beautiful campus, the people
Cons: athletic facilities, intramurals

I graduated from Kenyon College last spring so I know a lot about the school. Academically the school is one of the best liberal arts schools in the nation. I would say that no matter what your major is you will get a great education at this school....

Pros: Wonderful
Cons: none

Kenyon is wonderful, but that is the understatement of the year. With an insanely wonderful student body, attentive professors, highly interesting extra curricular activites, and everything else, I had to choose Kenyon. I was drawn to it. Sight unseen...

Pros: virtually none
Cons: virtually everything

Kenyon College is a great college. It is small, the faculty is great, the resources are wonderful. However when it comes to intramurals Kenyon is a joke. In fact last spring they did not even have an intramural softball league. The refs hardly ever...

Pros: lots of money if you need it
Cons: tuition price is high, and makes it LOOK unaffordable

I am quite excited!
I am going to Kenyon in August (this August [2000]) and I have $22,130 in grants! Over this I have work and loans, and have to find little money...

I must say, this is wonderful!
I fell in love with the school...

Pros: Good setting
Cons: Bad dorms

I have actually visisted Kenyon twice. I visited once during Spring Break for a tour and then I came back again during the summer.

The school is on a very pretty campus. While staying at the Kenyon Inn I walked around at night and it was a...

Pros: faculty, campus
Cons: winter in ohio

For a student looking for a high quality, liberal arts program and one who wants to know and be known by the faculty, Kenyon may be the best college on the planet. Because there is no graduate school, the faculty is there to teach. They are good at it...

Pros: caring, available professors
Cons: very small and close community

I traveled from a far land to Kenyon (the South) in hopes of snow and knowledge. There was a little snow and learned a great deal. The education available at Kenyon is incredible. However, I wound up transferring away from Kenyon my sophomore year for...

Pros: a few clubs
Cons: all is sex and beer

There is nothing to do here.
I have been here for about a week... I was here for two weeks over the summer... I have seen it all.

Gambier has NOTHING to do!
There is a grocery store, there is a bookstore (yes, it is a good one, but...

Pros: space
Cons: no ac, kitchen, and a bad lounge

This dorm is okay.
The lounge sucks, and it doesn't have laundry or kitchen stuff available...

but the good thing is that the rooms are big.

No air conditioning...

but big.

at least it is big.
