My particular college is well known and has a good reputation in terms of academics, social life, and the environment. In addition, my particular college was in a state so the tuition was less of a burden for my parents.
Course Curriculum
The course curriculum all in all is intense but manageable. Because there is a high standard and because the school is represented in an honorable manner, the workload is intense so that students are prepared to apply their skills in the real world.
Fees
Along with the tuition itself, there are dorm fees that are required by a freshman. Additionally, there is a health fee for individuals who do not have health insurance. And although different by each class there are textbook fees. And finally, a transportation fee that allows students to use a public bus.
Faculty
The faculty all in all is caring and shows that they care about the student's education. They provide frequent office hours allowing students to get help and to get to know their students better.
