Goldine Saintil Student at This School - Grad Year 2016
Stephens College is a wonderful college for a lady who is looking for small size classes and a nice comfortable environment. I like most about the school is the that professors actually care about you and we have a wonderful student center here that has a great tutoring staff to help you on any subject or the major you are in. Everyone is so nice and helpful, all you have to do is just ask. A memorable experience moment for me was my first day here I was welcomed with so much joy and happiness, everyone was very helpful and willing to talk and try to make it as smooth as possible adjusting to being away from home and living on your own. Tips for future students apply for Stephens College it will change you in a good way, and you will not regret applying at all. Just have good grades and participate in many events you will sure fit in.

This college is an all girls facility. However, it is just 2 miles from a major university and 2 miles the other direction is another college. While attending this college you can also take classes at the university or other college at no additional fee! All the staff as well as the students are extremely friendly and inviting. It is a small campus but everyone is known by their first name -- no numbers here! The President lives on campus and plans events at her home for the girls to attend and...she keeps chocolate in her office for the girls to come by and grab anytime they want! This campus is a pet friendly campus as well, allowing the girls to have a pet for a roommate, anything but spiders, snakes and a few breeds of dogs. This is a beautiful facility with a long history and any young girl heading to college should take a look at it in person.
