Simply an awful school. All they care about is new construction to make the place have a great reputation in twenty years, while throwing us under the bus with idiotic policies and regulations.

Aramark controls everything in campus dining and is a huge rip off...clubs can't even have non-Aramark food on campus! Parking is horrible, students are lazy and detached from their work...I don't even know what else to say. Housing is average I guess. For all the hype Elon gets for having a beautiful campus, it really isn't. There is too much construction going on for that to be possible.

Some professors are good, some are downright terrible, like the one who told us she was only here because she got fired from her last job...real nice. Hot girls always get As because they suck up to professors, and those of us who actually work hard and are intelligent are rewarded with Bs and Cs.

I wish I had transferred when I had the chance, but I thought I would give Elon a chance. Biggest mistake of my life.
Campus Maintenance: A-, Social Life: F

This school likes to talk big, but is realy a joke socially and academically. For me, it has been a huge disappointment, and I am trying to transfer out ASAP. Students here are not very informed about the world around them and are extremely close minded and dim witted. Every day I meet someone who never should have been acceped to any college, let alone one like Elon which portrays itself as on the rise.

AVOID
Friendliness: A-, University Resource Use: F

I love Elon University!!! It is honestly the best fit for me, it was my first choice and I have loved it ever since my first tour! Everyone is soooo friendly and welcoming and open to new people! Grades are important to everyone, but so is a social life. Most people I know go out 4 nights a week, at least, some more. Greek Life is huge, but the people I know not involved are fine too, just don't come to Elon hating on the Greeks. Classes are really challenging, you have to be willing to work hard if you choose Elon. But the professors are all so nice and so helpful and all of them have open door policies, even President Lambert does! The food is great campus food! The social scene revolves around only a few bars, its a small town, don't come to Elon if you want a city, you'll be miserable, but it is the perfect college town and I couldn't be happier with my choice to come to Elon!!!
