My college experience at Asbury was positively formative in both senses: It was unparalleled in the growth it encouraged in me as a person and that growth was positive. Since I do not have a job yet it is unfair for me to state how well the school prepared me, but I can say that, while still a student there, I got to work (for pay!) at the Beijing Olympics in 2008 in China. Any college will make you grow as a person because of the people you meet and because that's just the kind of age you're at in college, but as an extremely shy, introverted Christian I would not have thrived as well at another school. At Asbury I experienced a safe, supportive community and still got life experience. Yes Asbury is Christian, but almost everyone there is lovingly so, and despite the rules I did end up having opportunities to get drunk, have sex, and smoke pot. That's not to say I did, just that the opportunities were there in a very low pressure way which forced me to consider my stance on each.I was a double major in Media and Performance and as such had a pretty wide-ranging experience with teachers. Every teacher I had there knows what they are doing and the media teachers are all actual industry professionals (They just hired Barry Blair from Audio Adrenaline as their new audio teacher). Another huge benefit is that you get to become friends with these people. My biggest class there had less than 30 people and on average the classes had about 8-12 people. The teachers are passionate people, and even classes outside of my major were well worth it (particularly Shakespeare with Dr. Dan Strait!).Finally, my advice to you is to visit any campus you are considering. I loved the Asbury programs, but was almost scared off by the rules. I visited, met the students, and realized I belonged here. Figure out what categories you generally have an interest in and visit the schools that teach those areas well! |
