Elon College

Pros: great education, great campus life
Cons: none

Elon College, was a great three years! Not only did I learn, earned a degree, made lifelong friends, I was able to discover about myself. Elon's environment is conducive to learning, not only about the facts but enables students to discover their...

Pros: size, attention
Cons: diversity

I graduated from Elon College in 1997 with a B.A. in English, and while it has been almost impossible for me to find a decent job with my degree, I can't hold it against Elon. I truly enjoyed the four years I spent there as an undergraduate student,...

Pros: attractive campus
Cons: goose poop, nothing to do

The layout of the campus is pretty good. However, it is a good walk from some dorms to the classrooms. North, Harper Center, and Story Center are a good ten-minute walk to the academic building. Story Center is conveniently located next to the student...

Pros: campus size, professors, class size, beautiful campus, friendly students, Greek Life (for some)
Cons: Greek Life (for others), food service (sometimes), "fake" people, Haggard Avenue (lots of traffic makes it hard to cross the road at times)

Being a transfer student, I have had a slightly different experience than most at Elon College.

To begin with, I could not have asked for a better support line than what was provided to me by the admissions office. Any question I ever had...

Pros: Application process and answers to my questions were speedy and thorough
Cons: I now have a whole pile of Elon info that I dont know what to do with

I have just recently been accepted to Elon College. It was my first choice, having both a small student body and the strong science program that I was searching for in my college. I would like to give the admissions office at Elon a pat on the back for...

Pros: Great Atmosphere
Cons: What Cons!

All of my life I have lived only a short distance from Elon College, yet it was just recently that I realized what a fantastic place it is.Many citizens of North Carolina have been overlooking this backyard treasure, but I thank my lucky stars I decided...

Pros: becoming very close with your suitemates.
Cons: becoming TOO close.

Elon has some great places to live on cmapus. I would however tell you to avoid the old suite style dorms such as, Colclough, Maynard, and Chandler. I have lived in Colclough for two years. The rooms are tiny, the cleaning services in this building are...

Pros: near student center, close-knit
Cons: noisy, tiny rooms

I currently live in Chandler. It is not a great place. In fact, Story Center, which is comprised of Chandler, Colclough, and Maynard, is not a great place.

For one thing, the rooms are the size of a telephone booth. Not only are they...

Pros: beautiful place to live
Cons: none

I have never been a student of Elon College, but my sister is a graduate. Never in my life have I seen such a beautiful campus. I remember going there to visit her the first time and simply being in awe. The grounds were meticulously kept. The buildings...

Pros: Good question!
Cons: bad attitudes, poor food quality

For those prospective students who think the food is good, they will be sadly disappointed when they get to Elon. The food is made especially good for prospective students and their parents. However, from my time at Elon, the food is gross when all the...

Pros: Greek life
Cons: Greek life

Unfortunately, there isn't a lot to do at Elon. The college is located in a small town and is adjacent to a suburban town.

For some students, the weekend starts on Thursdays. I know this because I can hear them when I'm trying to sleep.
