Alfred University
“I'm now a Sophomore with serious thought ofBrightArt & Design Department
I'm now a Sophomore with serious thought of transfering out. After being there for a year, i've realized I don't like art students and some of the kids are hippies which I don't like. It's too cold and far away from Jersey. The town sucks and the people in the towns are sort of hick-ish. However, I loved the small campus size but I want a campus that isn't on a mountain and has more people and in a city or big town that actually has places to go. The parties are limited too. The Art & Design is very good as well as the Engineering, but they don't have the advertising/marketing courses I want. I want a city that's not almost an hour 1/2 away and there is life outside of the university...which there really isn't much unless you go to Hornell and that place has nothing except a Wal-Mart (oh wow...) If you like being in the middle of nowhere and freezing winters then you should go here. I am used to suburbia and a ton of more people around me so I don't like this type of environment.

Alfred University is a reputable University that provides everything a top University should provide. The students are diverse and for the most part, friendly. There are always parties to go to, or University sponsored programs to attend. There is something for everyone. It really provides a full college experience, from academics to partying, to growing up. I graduate next year, and will really miss my time at Alfred.
