I dont actually goQuite BrightEducation
I dont actually go here, but today I visited, it was SUCH a waste of my time. The vibe was dead and flat, the people werent approchable, and my tour guide didnt even know much about La Salle. Its not maintaned well and only one dorm building has air conditioning, which is rediculous.

Question
I would never recommendQuite Bright
I would never recommend this university to any student, look to attend others like Penn State, Penn, or Drexel. This is flat out a horrible university.

Question
Where should I begin? Well, the city itselfQuite BrightPsychology
Where should I begin? Well, the city itself was a complete let down from how I thought it would be. There is really nothing much to do around LaSalle. If you are looking for some type of entertainment, you would definitely have to go off campus to another school or into the city. Everything closes at 2am SHARP. The train stations stop running at about 12:30am. The transportation system there is absolutely horrible, the people are rude and arrogant, and not only that but people actually smoke in the train station and that is very dangerous. The train stations still run on tokens and the machines that you have to use to get these tokens are very old and most of the times do not work. Lasalle has no football team and a school without a football team is pretty lame. Lasalle security actually sucks. When you call for a shuttle to drop you to your dorm they ask you a million questions as to why you need one and most of the time refuse to send it if you are not injured or on crutches. The extracurricular activities are absolutely lame and there is like two fraternities on campus. The food ranges from average to disgusting. The cooks and some of the employees are ex convicts and they often look very dirty and unkept. The dorms are ok, but there is always some type of maintenance request that you might need to make such as broken window, stopped up sink, and especially heating problems. The parties at lasalle are lame and if there is a house party somewhere on campus 100% of the time they are shut down within the first hour, leaving the students with nothing to do, especially those without a car. The academics are ok, but I feel like you need to have all of the good characteristics of a college in order to fully enjoy it. I am so happy that I graduated. I ABSOLUTELY HATED LASALLE UNIVERSITY AND I WOULD NEVER GO BACK NOR RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE.IT WAS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE, I WAS MISERABLE EVERYDAY THERE.
