I am entering my Senior year at Utica College and I wouldn't have had it any other way. Campus life is very pleasant and safe. The campus is effectively centralized on one contiguous plot of land, and Even without an automobile, a student could briskly walk from one end of the College to the other in less than ten minutes.
There is a ton to do on and off campus. Anybody who can't have fun at Utica can't have fun anyplace.
I've always been challenged academically and socially at UC. It has been a great way to spend my college years.

If you're interested in Broadcast Journalism, I strongly recommend you enroll in classes with David Chanatry. He has network experience that is invaluable. Hopefully more students will be drawn to this field as a result of the Media Convergence Center at Utica College. The industry needs good writers.

I chose Utica College because when I visited, I felt welcome by the people I met. They weren't trying to sell the college to me, but rather they got to know me and what I wanted in a college. I am going into my senior year and I have had a great experience. I have good professors and have gained a lot of confidence from the responsibility and challenged UC has given me.
Now, I know that every college has its negative points and UC is no exception. However, to make claims about "rape rates" and that there is nothing to do on or off campus is a lie. I feel secure on the campus, but I also know I have to use common sense too. Nothing to do on or off campus?! You have got to be kidding! There is so much to do, but a good time isn't going to come and get you out of your dorm room. Go to some events and meet people. Join a club. be proactive, don't sulk in your room feeling sorry for yourself because you are bored.
There are great faculty, but there are also some that can be arrogant and condescending. The student body is a mix and for such a small school, the diversity is amazing. I have friends from all geographic, ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds. When I see people calling Utica "ghetto" and say it's all "black people" from NYC, it only makes me thankful that poster decided not to return to UC.
I can only say that UC isn't for everyone and posting lies because you didn't like it is pathetic. I honestly think that up until college, everyone (parents, teachers, coaches, etc.) bent over backwards to help you and do everything for you and when you got to UC, UC made you do for yourself and you can't handle that.
Education Quality: A, Social Life: B

Small school with big potential! After what I experienced during the two semesters I attended UC, I could see and feel the changes that this school is undergoing. Although still the majority of students is going to UC for the Syracuse University degree, the college is increasingly establishing their own programs and will in the future become more and more independent. I felt very welcome, impressed by the diversity of this relatively small school and whenever I had a problem, people helped me getting it solved. Altogether, a small, personal and yet diverse campus where one has the chance to closely interact with faculty.
