I think the best thing about my school would be the many scholarship opportunities, and also the way the admissions counselors get involved to help you out the most they can. I kept in touch with my counselor all the time, and she has been wonderful with helping me succeed and getting in to the university. It can be pricy, but they are wonderful at trying to help you afford it.

I would consider Diversity the best thing about McKendree. Even though McKendree is a small campus, it really brings everyone that is a part of the school together. McKendree also tries to reach out to others to come and be a part of the McKendree family. There's different functions and gatherings that any and everyone is invited to. On campus there are events that are held such as parties, or meetings that you can go to and participate in. Just as a whole, McKendree really makes you feel welcome and at home when you're away from home.

What I consider to be the best thing about my school is the fact that we have a small student body. The actuality of developing as a student in such a small group of people places me in a unique environment. My small school generates the overwhelming feeling of a family. I believe that the minute size of McKendree University allows all of its student the feeling of belonging and love, just through its tight-knit, community-based educators and students.

My school's focus is not only on the completion of a college degree for its attendees, but on the success of the individual in the future. This success is obtained by striving to achieve a high academic level of knowledge, involvement in the community around us, and the education we need to succeed in any role we take in society. The class size is more conducive for a more personal experience. The professors and staff work to make the campus a close-knit, safe, and inviting community for the students.

McKendree is small enough to make you feel important, but big enough to make you feel like you're in college. After spending 18 years in a small town I was ready to leave the cornfields and move onto bigger and better things, but I didn't want to become a statistic either. McKendree is the perfect size and the people are so friendly! I've made some friendships that will last a lifetime and I can't wait to spend the rest of my college career here.
