West Chester University - Rite aid in the local town to help the student. Not cheap but easily accessible for sure :)

Call me biased; I don't care. I am a graduate student at this university. I decided on WCU after…read morea plethora of research, interviews and applications. I was pretty stubborn initially, and really wanted to attend a college in the city, but this awesome university nestled in this awesome town lured me in. From my perspective (working professional pursuing a masters degree), this university did more to accommodate me than any other college in this area. They host several open house events throughout the year where a rep from each program is available. It may seem like a small gesture, but they put out all sorts of drinks, cheeses, crackers, veggies, cookies and other snacks. For a working professional going to an open house directly from work, this was really a nice added touch. Also, there was a water ice stand set up -- that was really cool. The programs are excellent and the scheduling is very convenient. The added bonus is that WCU has a payment plan option that enables students to make payments over the course of four months. I honestly don't know of any college in this area that does that. The staff in each of the offices I've dealt with have always been extremely kind. Even my advisor (who also happens to be the professor of the class I'm taking this term and is also the director of the program) offered to register me for my classes so I don't have to go online and do it myself (because that would be so inconvenient for me, right?). It is amazing the lengths they go to in order to help students. The tuition is competitive with other area colleges. I'm in a program offered by every college in the south Jersey and Philadelphia area. I could go to a school much closer to home, but WCU is where I want to be -- and it's totally worth the 55 mile commute each way.

A great university. In a suburban community but a full university campus with boarding options. It…read morehas everything that a large university offers but a small university feel. It's a perfect fit for my son. My son didn't want to be too far from home in Philadelphia and with WCU being less than an hour drive, the university was a perfect fit!

I had the honor of attending Fairleigh Dickinson University, where I earned my B.A. The campus…read moreconsists of beautiful green spaces and nice buildings, including the historic and elegant mansion, a newer and tastefully-designed library, the wonderful Dreyfus Theatre, and a state-of-the-art athletic building complete with an indoor track and pool. In addition to having the ability to walk across a gorgeous campus, there is access to a local rail-trail. The professors, both tenured and adjuncts, at the university care about sharing their knowledge with students while encouraging class discussions. If a student needs extra help, professors go out of their way to be helpful and the tutoring center is a great resource. I found the student body to be welcoming, friendly, and passionate about learning. There are a number of student organizations on campus and activities to participate in. For example, I co-hosted a radio program on campus. There are also interesting lectures that take place on campus. I highly recommend enrolling at Fairleigh Dickinson University.

PROS: This campus is absolutely beautiful with the art and nature around it. The staff is nice, the…read morestudents are great to be with and the amenedites range from a pool, to bball courts, to a full on gym (unlike the metro campus). There's even a lot of historical buildings on this site CONS: The campus does not allow you to enter the grounds after midnight which is inconvenient for people dorming that want to get a midnight bite to eat. It's also confusing navigating around the campus OVERALL: I don't regret this being my alma mater. I just wish it was more affordable
