Other than making friends with a few caring professors, and learning some valuable skills my experience at Chatham was terrible! I was told so many great things about Chatham before entering, and upon my first few visits to Chatham most people were friendly. But as time passed on quite honestly no one seems to give a damn, especially once you're a senior. Its like well, you're already here, paying tuition, we don't have to keep trying to make your experience a good one. The university is terribly unorganized and it is difficult to find out information, on graduation, tutorial, and internship procedures. There is a number of professors that are to say the the least, terrible, arrogant and self centered, and make you feel like you're nothing but a waste of their time. Stay away from applying for a degree in science and business fields, you can get a better experience elsewhere.

In general the school courts mediocrity over excellence. They are more focussed upon building up numbers of new students than satisfactorily serving the students already attending by promoting quality programs or maintaining the resources they provide. There is a lot of hype and little to back up that hype. They are supposedly big on sustainability but they have policies that waste greater amounts of paper than other schools, and large amounts of food - but are not open to changing these systems in the name of sustainability.

I absolutely LOVED my experience at Chatham and would not consider any other school. Chatham helped me to grow into the person I am today--someone much more confident, capable and open minded than I'd ever expected. Without the community support and opportunities provided by Chatham I don't think I could have had achieved the same amount of success.

As with anything, your time at Chatham is what you make of it. If you never attend events and do not join some organizations, then the social scene will seem dull. However, if you take advantage of the opportunities and open up, you will have so much fun!

The school emphasizes environmentalism and the student body is has a progressive take on social issues. However, you're free to have your own opinion as long as you're not hurting others.
