The teachers here are very interested in the students. Since the classes are so small there is a lot more interaction, it's easier to ask your questions, and you can create a better relationship with your professors. The dorms are amazing, even the freshmen dorms, but you do pay more for them then most schools do. Greek life is pretty big here, almost everyone is affiliated with a social, buisness, or art fraternity. Christopher Newport is ideal for someone who wants to go to a small school and is interested in Greek life.

the most unique thing about Christopher Newport University is that everywhere i go, people are always friendly. They are so respectful to others and treat you like a part of a big family. Other schools are where people find their "true" friends" and some of the schools are just too big. This schol is a perfectly sized school and everyone is pretty much treated that same.

Very strong leadership program that is outstanding in it's classes, community, student to faculty relationships, and community service. There is an overwhelming feeling of belonging and friendship on campus. Very clean, well manicured buildings and residence halls. Outstanding food services.
Brad
There are small class sizes, and a sense of closeness throughout the community because of the small number of students.

Small, but not too small. Perfect Size and lots of options

It is a university in the process of building and growing. Its reputation continues to get better every year and most buildings are being redone and updated. Compared to the other schools I considered attending in high school, which already have an established reputation.
Crystal
Leadership minor, and a lot of focus on art and new buildings

The school is very small so it only takes as much as 12 or so minutes to walk from one end of campus to the other. Even though it is small, there are still plenty of things to do during the week. There are parties in a certain appartment complex off campus (avoid it!.. lots of students get caught underage drinking there...) I've never been to this complex =) Not everything is revolved around sororeties/frats and parties. Plenty of fun activities are hosted by the campus activities board. This campus is beautiful, with plenty of TREES!!

Our school is very new and constantly growing, and the dorm rooms are very liviable and sufficient.

We have the amazing Ferguson Center for the Arts which is a world-class theater that has national and international concerts and performances all the time - and we get great student ticket prices!
