I began Mary Baldwin excited because I thought that I would be attending a college that would have a positive and challening learning environment. I WAS WRONG!!!

Personally, I did not find the academics at MBC that challenging. A great deal of it felt like busywork. That said, there are some good professors at MBC that work hard to make classes interesting.

Socially, MBC is a mess!! I think they need to be waaay more selective about what types students they let in. It seems as if a lot of the students they let in are the girls that could not get in anywhere else. Of course there are the exceptions, but a great deal of the girls at MBC are very rude, ill mannered, unintelligent, and vile in the way that they treat one another. This is not the place where you will be able to have intellectual conversations outside of the classroom with other students. Well, unless you consider gossiping and fighting intellectual.

Sadly, MBC was a very big disappointment for me. I decided to transfer to a better college. From the looks of it most people who begin MBC transfer. Make sure you check MBC's retention rate it's quite low. I really wish that I had done better research before I applied.
