What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
The University of Montevallo was undoubtedly the best choice of college for me to make. Our small size--about three thousand students--and subsequently low faculty to student ratio make it easy for us students to get to know our professors, and vice versa. Being a face and name and not just a number at my university has made learning significantly more enjoyable and rewarding for me. I have also been fortunate to make close friendships with my classmates because people at Montevallo are friendly and accessible. The liberal arts environment on campus attracts a diverse group of creative people who are accepting to people who would not necessarily fit in on larger campuses like that of University of Alabama or Auburn University. Because we focus primarily on academics and arts instead of sports, it makes the college experience that much more enjoyable for people like me, whose interests lie in things such as creative writing, art, journalism, and environmental conservation.

What kind of person should attend this school?
A Montevallo student should be three basic things: a "people" person, intellectually curious, and a person who thrives on individual engagement in the classroom. My university is probably the most liberal in the state of Alabama and we take great pride in being a symbol of the New South. Students here are kind, open-hearted, generous, and fiercely faithful to their fellow students. Any newcomer should expect to become part of a genuine community. In short, anyone can be happy here because even the so-called outcast is beloved and their intellectual heft cherished.

It's annoying having only a few places to go around campus and then on top of that, the city of Montevallo doesn't have much more. You have to drive fifteen miles to the next town to go shopping or see a movie.
