When I decided to go to Delaware, it was for a number of reasons. I thought the student population seemed less snobby than some of the preppy New England schools I was considering, the social scene seemed pretty amazing, and I would pay about $25,000 less PER YEAR--that's $100,000 total-- to go to Delaware than I would have had I gone to Smith or Bates College. I was in the Honors Program at Delaware and I thought that the experience enhanced my education.The professors are excellent people, funny, charming, eccentric and (usually) available to you. I wouldn't say Delaware completely lived up to my expectations, but I have zero college loans to pay off, and my experience got better each year. Senior year was a blast because we could finally go to the bars. Despite what people think, Delaware is not a greek-oriented school. Parties revolve around close-knit groups of friends, and most of the frats have been kicked off campus. Sorority girls are present on campus, but to get into parties, all you have to be is pretty or friends with someone, no one cares what sorority you're in, let's be honest. I was a little nervous my freshman and sophomore year, but as time went on I adjusted to the large population and I found my niche. I would reccomend Delaware over any overpriced school if you are willing to get where you are going via hark work, not via your college's reputation.
