West Chester University of Pennsylvania Stats, Info and Facts

Teachers have limited interactions with you, and seem to be there for the paycheck. I have yet to personally meet a teacher who seems genuinely interested in teaching students.

It is close to my home and the campus is beautiful. There is so much to offer and so much to do. I have made so many new friends and found the professors to be helpful and caring.

It is going to be so exciting! The student population really does shape the town of West Chester. During the summer, a few students stay and enjoy the town life, and during the school year you'll have no trouble getting acquainted with neighbors and making new friends.

So far I'm not to sure about this one. It's hard to get any attention from the offices unless you are right there in their faces trying to talk to them over the phone is completely useless. Otherwise though the students and faculty that i have met are pretty nice so it won't be to hard to make friend if you're from out of state but, most if not all the students went to the same if not close to the same high school so they will definitely be in their own little cliques if their freshmen.

Unfortunately, West Chester is a big party school. This may be good news to some but campus partying causes a MAJOR amount of distractions. The purpose of college is to extend your education and if you're only looking to party, you might not be ready for it yet. A lot of West Chester students get caught up in the party/bar scene and struggle with their academics. Don't get me wrong, your college years are some of the best of your life - but if you neglect you're academics you'll struggle a lot when you're thrown into the real world. Other than partying, West Chester has a ton of activities to get involved in. The school spirit here is great despite not having big D1 sports to get into. The school size is getting pretty big so there's no trouble finding friends.
