Do NOT go to Dartmouth. Why?

  • The winters are brutal. You must be willing to have your blood frozen solid…every day…and every night.
  • The frats are over-emphasized and produce a bad (very bad) campus enviroment. With such an emphasis, you can't make friends normally, and almost have to join a frat or sorority to even survive socially.
  • The class sizes are big, alot bigger than comparative universities. The professors are often arrogant, especially the newer ones.
  • Hanover is a horrible college town. I thought I liked isolation, to bring the campus together, but Dartmouth is brought together to spite Hanover, it seems. Even to just get a serious coffee you have to drink about a half-hour. To do anywhat that every other college student considers normal you have to drive forever.
  • the trimester system is extremely intense. There are always finals coming right up, so you never get a chance to relax. If you fall behind, because the trimesters move so fast, you're dead academically.
  • You never get home with your friends, or brother/sisters in other colleges because of the trimester system. You don't even really get to unite your family because the vacations are different. If you don't mind a fractured family, one without unity and the family spirit, and you don't mind seeing your siblings once a year at most, go to Dartmouth. You will probably forget your family existed, or at least brothers/sisters in other colleges.
  • The food here is pretty bad. You might like it for the first week, but it gets extremely repetitive and the cooking staff purposely makes better food at first to hook you in, then it deteriorates…alot. Comparative colleges have much better food.
  • The price. The Dartmouth price tag is way to high for the quality (specifically the lack thereof) of education. Other college offer a much better bang for your buck.
  • Ivy prestige??? A complete misnomer. A good job after graduating isn't guarenteed at all, and instead you have to rely on other stuff (work experience i.e.) to get a job. The Dartmouth education didn't land me a job I couldn't have gotten by going to even a bad state school. My friends had similar results.
  • So where to go? Cornell and Columbia and UPENN don't suffer from what I've outlined above, so check out those. Also, UCLA and Berkeley in California offer the bang for your buck that I wish I had got, instead of depleting my family's treasury for a waste.
  • If you want a good college experience, don't go to Dartmouth. My personal experiences will reflect yours.
