Megan - 07/27/2020

Good school with good NCLEX results. If you're looking for a school that is reasonably priced this is NOT that school. The tuition per credit hour is twice as high as the University. If you\'re not seventh day Adventist the school may be a little much for you. There are multiple times of prayer and the campus is shut down on Thursdays for church. Also, students are required to take 2 seventh day Adventist classes which add thousands of dollars to the tuition.

Christopher - 03/27/2020

Union College-Lincoln is one of the best colleges that I recommend that you should go to. The people here are very friendly, you have professors that love teaching and care about your success. The professors are very accessible through email and office hours. Union College-Lincoln is a small learning environment where there are small class sizes and you can easily interact and engage with the class. If you're interested in the Nursing Program, Union College-Lincoln is one of the best colleges in terms of rating. Union College-Lincoln has the highest percentile of students passing the TEAS and NCLEX exams to get into the Nursing Program. So Union College-Lincoln highly recommend this college for any student looking for a small environment and cares about their spiritual life and success.

Rachel - 12/27/2019

Union College is a great place that has helped me learn and grow as a person. Union College is a sister school to my academy and a lot of my peers and graduating classmates went to that school. It's a very small school and isn't like huge schools or public universities. It's a second family and I've made life-time and unforgettable friends at that school. The professors really care about you since it's very small and accessibility to campus is easier and at walking distance. I like Union College

Kayleigh - 10/24/2019

It’s a small school with a family oriented lifestyle. Getting to know the community is really encouraged here. There are tons of groups that you can join on campus, and students can always create more. The sports life here is pretty involved, and everyone on campus has some form of merchandise that supports the teams. People really get to know one another here.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    I would find someway to convince myself to get proper habits in place such as sleep, eating right, exercise. Only now am I seeing how important they are and trying to form these kinds of habits in a busy college environment is really difficult. I'd also teach myself to be able to say, "no." Especially in the first semester of college, being busy isn't always a good thing. I wish I'd learned to balance everything in my life to keep myself healthy and destressed and how to prevent becoming overwhelmed by everything.

  9. What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

    I wish I would have known more about the financial information. They gave you some information, but not enough to prepare yourself. Obviously college is going to be expensive, but knowing what your options are is a nice thing to have. You are going to want to really question them and get in depth answers. During freshman orientation week, make sure to ask a lot of questions, even if you think they are dumb because someone else may have the same questions.
