    I think many of the only few reviews here are sour grapes…read more I know many people that have degrees from King's And have excellent professional careers A degree is only what you make of it. And yes it's true that you need to know what the college is known for in picking a major

    I got a degree in economics from here in 2011. I never got an interview for a job requiring a…read morecollege degree until 2016, but by that time, people thought that too much time had passed since I got my degree, and I was blackballed from professional employment. If you go to King's, choose a major in computer science, nursing, or physician's assistant. Otherwise, you may end up like me. King's admission rate is 77%, and the national average is 65%. According to PrepScholar, "[w]ith a GPA of 3.38, King's College accepts below-average students." I found that to be the case, as most students seemed not to care about the classes or much else for that matter. The career planning office is a joke. They had interviews for used car sales jobs. Need I say more? If you don't major in something that is medically or computer science related, your degree will likely be worth nothing from here. I was doing well in life until I got the King's. I was a loyal student and supported my school. They didn't support me. They ruined my life by giving me a costly degree that had and has no value.

    I was a student here of 3 years in the arts. Initially, I was an interior design student. I decided…read morethat I wasn't as interested in it as I had hoped so I leaned on my second option: Painting Illustration. I rode on FAFSA here as a low income student and never had an issue with the financial aid office. That's basically one of the few compliments I can give this school. The cafeteria food doesn't offer much variety and is at the same value as secondary school lunches, which doesn't say much. I only had one arts professor (Denise Evans) who I actually learned a lot from. She has a reputation for giving a hefty work load. She's the meticulous type which is likely why I got so much out of her class. She's definitely killing many forests with all the handouts, but each handout is very easy to read and helpful. Otherwise, not much other professors have made a good impression on me, if any impression at all. Good luck If you're dealing with bullying or discrimination here because here is where my story gets rocky. I had a professor named Brian Overman my first semester for my architecture courses. He was definitely not liked by quite a bit of students because he would come across as arrogant sometimes. I overlooked this after a while because I'm not that judgmental unless a person just seems downright awful. I used to talk to him once in a while even after I switched my majors but still remained having classes in the same building (ATC). I lost any respect for this person after a situation during my last year. I gifted him architecture mugs near the holidays because I thought of him when I saw them and simply thought it was a nice gift for an architect. Man, did he make me regret that. He did the total opposite of a considerate "I appreciate the offer but I cannot accept this". Rumors spread to some of the students in the building accusing me of having feelings for him. If you're familiar with the ATC, it's not that big and many students mingle since they have the arts and classes in common. Yes, he did approach me at some point earlier on, but he placed me on a pedestal when doing so. He stated that he was worried I thought there was something more than "friendship". I denied having feelings for him but he carried on mocking me and didn't believe me. I was so embarrassed and uncomfortable. I actually went home crying to my best friend on the phone. The days got worse after that because of students harassing me in halls and classes. Certain teachers didn't even care if students were talking about it because everyone who heard the rumors believed them. The bullying got to a point that I relapsed into depression and was legitimately afraid for my safety on campus. Not a single person would hear me out though and needless to say I was bitter for it. Apparently, this professor is still employed here but retired from full time. Sharing this may sound petty to some people, but I hope this gets across since the lies still carry out to this day. It's disgusting when schools claim they are against bullying but doesn't actually take action when a student is in trouble. Anyone should be fired for having no remorse over provoking someone to have a mental illness or relapse in this case. This school not only doesn't care about it's students, but it's just going downhill period. It used to be known for it's nursing program, but there have been nursing students complaining about how much the curriculum has changed. It's probably only worth going here if you're seeking a general education degree only to transfer and save money.

    I am in the Scranton school. I love how helpful all the teachers are. If they see you really trying…read morethey will help you to understand what you can't. If I have any questions the office is willing to help. I am going into my 3rd semester and I am praying it stays this way. So far so good!

    I went to Bucknell for one semester and had a pretty negative experience which led me to leave the…read moreUniversity halfway through the year. In terms of academics, the classes were nice and the professors were lovely people, but I would recommend making sure that your chosen major is something that the University specializes in. I chose to go there for theatre, and I found that they were lacking in performance opportunities and resources for the arts in general. The classes were all beginner level, and did not extend beyond basic training. I felt like I was repeating middle/high school level classes. Bucknell is great for math, science, and engineering majors. If you are the type of person that cares about having things to do off campus, Lewisburg is not the place for you. There are very few options for entertainment and trying to shop without having access to a car is very difficult. The nearby towns are just as barren as Lewisburg. You will inevitably get stuck on campus. If you have any kind of food allergies or need for meal plan accommodations, good luck getting dining services to take you seriously. It took me six weeks of fighting the school and getting my parents and healthcare providers involved to convince them to let me eat somewhere other than the main food hall. The staff are not careful about cross-contamination and do not understand allergies at all. The social life on campus is nearly non-existent. Unless you are in a frat/sorority, it is very difficult to find a social outlet and make friends. I am personally not interested in sororities, but I found myself having to gravitate toward them to have something to do most days. It was incredibly hard to find information about clubs and groups, and the few that I joined were nearly inactive. If you care about diversity and inclusion, Bucknell is not the right university to attend. The majority of the students are white upper-middle class students who come from very rich families and they all look and talk the same. There is a severe gossip culture on campus, and the friends you make will more than likely be quite shallow. It feels like being trapped in middle school and the campus/student population is tiny so there is really nowhere to escape if you get caught in the wrong crowd of people. Most people that I met there had to rely on their academics to stay occupied and otherwise felt miserable because of the lack of on and off campus activities. Even if you do find activities that suit you, it is very hard to find nice, trustworthy people. I started there having plenty of friends and only had one when I left due to the disingenuous nature of the student body. If there is anything nice I can say, it is that the campus is beautiful, and you can definitely rely on the professors to have your back if nobody else does. If you know that Bucknell is the place for you, I wouldn't want you to be turned away by my review. My advice is just to make sure that if you do choose to go there, you are prepared for the environment: small town, intense party and frat/sorority culture, a very focused area of expertise, and a real and somewhat concerning lack of diversity and inclusion.
