Overall, Muhlenberg is a great school. It has wonderful academic programs, the faculty and staff are all on your side and offer tons of programs to help you succeed in any area of your life you in which you may need help. The campus is gorgeous, extremely safe (guy or girl can walk alone at night without worrying), the food is unusuaually good compared to other schools (and I have been to a LOT of universities and colleges), the students are friendly, and the dorms are generally nice. The downfalls: there is very little night life..you have to be careful if you want to find a good party, internet service is not free even though they say it is (you get charged cash to netowrk your computer as soon as you get to campus and it is mandatory), and the squirrel population is obnoxious.

As for student body population, you can generally say that Muhlenberg is a

rich, white, Jewish school.

For the most part, it turns out to be true. You will come across very very few non-whites and a lot of the students have a fair deal of money. This does not mean that they are snotty or rude, however. While there is very little diversity in race, there is great diversity in personality, sexuality, and interests here. Most of the kids are from PA, NJ, NY, and New England.

The sports are not particularly great here and there are no sports scholarships.

The Psychology and Business departments are the largest, but Theatre/Dance and English are extremely popular. It is a very artsy school with a huge focus on drama and other arts.

The choir program is average, if that.

The study abroad program is amazing and offers study in almost an almost unlimited amount of countries covering every continent except Antarctica. Study abroad costs no extra tuition other than your plane ticket.
