University of Puget Sound Top Questions

If you're a non-traditional student, it can be very difficult to get involved and make friends.

How expensive the school overall. The price increases next year which means I will have to get more money, and my family is already putting in over 24,000 dollars into my education with my grandparents putting in a few thousand. I recieve 19,000 in merit scholarship. My family is already putting in as much as they can, and I still have student loans. With a price increase I will have more debt, and have to hope I can get decent loans that wait until I am out of college.

Some students are easily frazzled by work, though hard workers in high school will find academics challenging, but managable.

It is a smaller school, so the professors do expect a lot out of you. If you choose not to stay on top of your course work, it is very easy to fall behind and not do well. You learn a lot about time management, because if you don't, you will never get the opportunity to gain the college experience that every student deserves! You are forced to learn quickly.

It rains a lot. That's the worst thing I can think of.

That it costs so much to attend.

The art program does not offer media related art which is what I want to focus on, and I do not completely relate to the way of life of the area/school.

Its lack of diversity and its poor fitness facilities.

I study foreign languages, and have run into a lot of limitations, but they're being fixed for future students.

The size I think; I sometimes wish it was larger so it was more competitive and attractive to employers.
