Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Biology  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Bright Allegheny is a strong academic college. The coursework is difficult, and the senior comp is challenging. I was a transfer student, having completed my first two years at a Pittsburgh college. Thus, it was difficult at first to establish friendships. But, in the end, I did. Allegheny is a great pre-professional college. If you want to attend medical school, Allegheny is great. I believe there is too much emphasis on pre-med students. The pre-meds students are very "cut-throat." Campus Aesthetics: A+, Collaboration/Competitive: D Have a Question?

You have your choice of pretty much top-notch academics in nearly every field here. The academic aspect here is great, however, the social scene here at Allegheny consists of drinking or sitting around doing nothing. The college sponsors very few activities for those of us who don't drink. If you don't drink, good luck finding things to do on the weekends. In the end, it's worth attending Allegheny for its academic reputation. Perceived Campus Safety: A+, Social Life: D+ Have a Question?

Just being in the top 5% of your highschool class does not mean that the school will be easy, so come prepared with a strong work ethic and a willingness to learn from both the students and professors around you.It is also to your advantage if you get to know the professors in your department well, be sure to talk to them often and keep them updated. They are more than willing to help when it comes to academics and they like to see students who take the initiative to get the help they need rather than simply failing or struggling through their work.
