Positives-

Small class sizes and decent academic programs and professors for size and profile of the school. Campus has nice grounds and views. Some hotspots on the campus include the large cafeteria, the evening cafe, and the well equipped athletic center (complete with new fitness gym, basketball courts, pool, and new outdoor tennis courts). The scholarship packages and aid are more than generous, making it very affordable. Also, the school offers a D1 athletic program. Basketball games are great school spirit attractions during the winter.

Negatives

The area is not college friendly. Emmitsburg is a fairly depressed rural town and offers very little in terms of nightlife or entertainment. Overall, the campus needs some structural work. Some dorm buildings have been renovated, others are very outdated (no air conditioning and old communal bathrooms). The academic buildings make a public elementary school look nice.

Please note

The campus safety and administration are very strict. They crack down on drinking, especially on the wekends. Be prepared to spend a lot of time quietly drinking in your dorm room before going down to the mount cafe for a drunken quasedilla.

For

A student who wants a good, but not too challenging, education and a strong extracurricular involvement (sports namely, then volunteer work, outdoor adventures, Bible study).

Not for-

The work hard, play hard type
