West Chester University of Pennsylvania Reviews
Rating 3.71 out of 5 1,855 reviews
West Chester University of Pennsylvania is a great school! There are tons of great restaurants and activities to do within walking distance of the campus. The campus also has many spots for students to study or spend time with friends. The parking could be better for commuter students, and there could be more areas where commuter students could spend time. The professors at the school are amazing and most are easily approachable. They truly want to see everyone succeed and achieve their goals.
I love the way the campus is near the town with so many places to walk to. You can get food, smoothies, go shopping and so much more all in town. Town is only about a 10 minute walk, it is beautiful. I would like to see a change in the housing situation, there is very limited housing!
Overall, my experience at West Chester University has been great! I am a commuter student so it was a little hard to get adjusted in the beginning. For a while, I felt like I was on the outside because I was not living at school, but since I got adjusted it has been great! West Chester also offers services for commuter services to make them feel involved in the community. My classes and professors have all been great and all of them want to help their students. They are passionate about what they teach and, from my experience, all of them are willing to spend extra time with you to help you learn the new topics. Overall, it has been a great experience and I would recommend everyone to look into attending this school!
