Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Undecided  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright Love Nichols College. Some people HATED it because they didn't know how to make their own fun. It's true; there is not much nearby. You want to go places? Bring your car. Freshman can have cars on campus and parking isn't too difficult. There's Auburn Mall and Blackstone Mall nearby, as well as some restaurants. You'll have to drive 20-25 mins though. The dorms are so nice, especially Shamie (the primarily freshman dorm). In Shamie, you have your own bathroom with shower that you share between you and one or two other people. Nichols focuses on getting you ready for the real world. You have to take a PDS (professional development seminar) course every year that teaches you things such as time management, networking, resume building, interviewing skills and other skills necessary for landing a job out of school. The sports programs are really strong....except for football. Hockey is reallly popular here. People love going to the games. The course load isnt too tough...however, it gets harder as you go.

The school really focuses on you getting a job after college and has classes that prepare you with resumes and portfolios to help you succeed. The social life is great if you are not so close minded, but rather outgoing and accepting. There is not a lot to do in the surrounding towns it is sort of in the middle of the woods but it is all how you make fun out of your time, then you will have a good time. The partying is average as with any school.. everyone in college parties but there are no frats or sororities here which kind of blows. But it is a close knit community where the professors always help you out and I know I am going to be well off after college Faculty Accessibility: A, Surrounding City: C+ Have a Question?

Student and professors are very friendly, and there's always a chance for extra help if you are behind. Academia Hall definitely needs some fixing up, but don't expect to have many classes in there unless you are a liberal arts major. Nichols is a great school if you are looking to be close to faculty. Some you may even be on a first name basis with. If you'd rather a large class where your teacher doesn't know your name, or you don't like presentations, Nichols is not for you.
