Advice

Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Engineering Department  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright This is a typical college typical of our terrible system that is applied to most colleges of our time. CLASSES: I found the class size to be very managable. Not too big but not too small. Professors in my department grade very hard but usually give a slight curve. Engineering is still a very hard major. By the second year almost half of the class is out of the major. The professors are nice people but they choose favorites, if you are getting good grades they like you but if not they treat you like crap. POLICIES: This college is very poorly run from the administrative department. Parking is a mess. Don't be surprised when you get your first ticket. Everyone gets one. Campus security and RA's are a bunch of assholes on weekends. SOCIAL LIFE: Some people at this college are very friendly and others are annoying as hell. The parties here are so boring most of the time and its so small of a campus you are always watching for security. All though it is fun to sometimes just chill with people and have a few beers. TOWN: You dont need a car to go into town. It helps but unless youre a really lazy person you could walk into town in about 10 minutes. Not much there though. OVERALL: I have had a bad experience here but that doesn't mean you will. A lot of kids here are usually pretty well off but they are still mostly nice kids. There is definately a lot of stupid shit that they don't tell you about on any tour or orientation. Useful Schoolwork: A, Surrounding City: F Have a Question?

I always felt there just wasn't anything for me at E'town and went through the motion to graduate. Although social in college, did not have much in common after commencement... and happily moved on. Maybe E'town gave me the urge to find it... and I do believe that a liberal education is very beneficial. Thanks.

The main reason I attend Elizabethton was due to the fact that it was easy to get into if you were a transfer, and in fact the application fee was waived. What I liked: The professors were very approachable and personal. I felt safe on campus, and liked the fact that I did not have to cross 5 major highways to get to class. Things I did not like: Living in the basement of Ober. Dirty rooms, dirty hall, dirty bathroom, for 40,000 a year dirty is not what I expect. I would expect that at a public school. There is a lack of diversity. White upper class uber conservative types. The guys main goal is to get drunk and hook up on the weekends, and the girls number one agenda is to spend 4 hours straightening their hair, picking out their "outfits", spraying a bottle of perfume on, and then walking around campus in high heels roaming from one disgusting party to the next. It was hard as an out of state student with no car to leave the campus. For the two years I was there, I basically lived in a bubble around campus. It appears the town's main goal is to pretend like a college is not there. there is no interaction at all. The students who do stay on campus wake up at noon, then head to the mall, and then start their evening preparations...kinda pathetic huh. I currently owe 50,000 for two years of attendance at E-Town, to put that in perspective I pay 440.00 a month to pay back these school loans! As a school teacher this is over 1/4 of my months salary...that is wrong. Additionally the school sends emails and letter at least 4 times a month asking for donations! Please think about how much you will owe, and the type of experience you desire in college before selecting this school or anyone other college.
