The school as a whole is good, it has it's issues just like any other. The area is beautiful though the town is very small. If you don't like mindless drinking, there's a bit less to do. If your not into soft drugs I'd imagine there's nothing to do. My sole complaints are with financial aid as well as the school's handling of transfer students. Granted it is a medium-sized school, however as a transfer student I found I received but a fraction of the information and help my peers who attended since freshman did. It was more or less a "fend for yourself" thing. If you don't obtain a scholarship financial aid is a nightmare. Despite the money it rakes in, this school is undoubtedly greedy. I had to appeal twice to financial aid because they did not tell me exactly how everything worked resulting in me screwing myself for the year. As of now I don't even have enough to pay my rent, and despite advertising help during "financial emergencies", I was more or less given the middle finger and told they wouldn't help me unless I provided them with receipts from purchases over two months ago. I know I'm not the only one to have problems. They handle things very poorly and care very little if not at all for students who may have a hard time paying their way.
