I went to La Salle with all the right intentions and everything going for me. Founder's Scholarship, Honors Program, etc. What I didn't know is that, in Biology at least, for most other majors the staff seemed to NEVER have cared at all, once you let your grades slip even just a little, you're branded unworthy and treated with either ignorance or hostility. My GPA was a 3.7 after first semester freshman year and instead of coaching me and encouraging me, I was told I would never get into Medical School and that I was wasting everyone's time. Horrendous, horrendous faculty. Aside from that, the campus is in a terrible, dangerous area, the social 'campus life' consists of either getting black out drunk or childish school organized events followed by getting black out drunk. As for the questions above: 1. it took years to bounce back from the lack of guidance and abysmal education I received (a new science building won't make up for flawed curriculum and apathetic, elitist faculty) 2. I should have gone somewhere else. Had I but known, i would have torn up the scholarship letter. 3. I would recommend HS students look elsewhere. Current students, in a word, transfer. Regardless of losing credits and having to repeat courses at your new school. Wasting a few classes or even a few semesters is much better than four years with a degree of questionable merit. Trust me.
