Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] English  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright I wanted to get a positive review in here because I feel like the negative ones are not doing Assumption justice and the one positive one was obviously written by an admissions counselor or something. I gradauted in '01 and my brother graduated in '07. The fact that we both went there speaks to the experience, but I also wanted to add that I totally disagree with the sentiment that it is not a "true college experience." That's nonsense. Assumption is what you make of it, just like most schools. However, more than most schools, Assumption has found a great balance in terms of academics, social life, and extra-curricular life that most schools strive for bu don't actually achieve. At Assumption, you really can do everything you want to do and not lose out on any one aspect of college life. To me, that's one of the great things about the school. To add to that, there is a variety of students at Assumption. People come from good schools, prep schools, catholic schools, wherever. Most are from New England or some part of the Northeast. Almost all of the student body are regular people who work hard and play hard, and when they get out of school they get good jobs. What more do you want from a school? My only real criticism of Assumption would be that there are a lot of cliques, but I think that's probably true of most places with more than 500 students.

As a freshman I felt like it open my eyes to all new experiences. There are so many clubs you can join as well as intramural sports. As for academics, they are very challenging. Assumption College is located in Worcester,MA. It is a large city where you can always find something to do. Assumption College also provides students with a shuttle bus to the most populated areas and they also provide "safe ride". Safe ride is a program they have installed for students who leave campus and want to take a taxi back to schoo. Being an Assumption College student you only pay $4.00 to get back on campus from any where in Worcester. Like any other college "you" the student need to be open-minded, you need to open yourself up to new experiences and new places in order to maximize your college experience! Good Luck!

This school does not have stone ivy covered towers. They offered me a huge scholarship and thats why I came. I am transfering next year for sure. I can not find anyone to have a decent conversation with. Individual Value: A+, Education Quality: D+ Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.

However, with any college in the Worcester consortium, there is the possibility of taking classes at surrounding colleges, which is a nice option. Overall, the faculty is good, and most professors offer extra help during office hours. Most professors take the time to get to know their students, and classes are usually between 20 and 25 people. The worst thing about this campus, though, is the attitude of the student body. People tend to be very clique-ish, and it is difficult to meet anyone without going to parties on campus. Also, the clubs on campus are loosely organized, and poorly attended. Preparedness: -, Reputation: - Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.
