学生评价
好评:
- Alma has so many great things to offer. The professors are some of the smartest people I have ever met who are truly looking out for the interests of their students. Things like the writing center and free tutors are also great resources to take advantage of!
- Classes are hard and demanding but professors are always willing to work with students. the class sizes are very small. My largest class was forty students and my two smallest classes have been with six students. this is great for classes in my majors and other important classes. the registration process has been simplified in the last couple of years.
- They are hard,but good classes. The grading system is different here then other schools which hurt a lot of the students.
- The teachers are sometimes easy to get a hold of. There are the ones that are hard to deal with and ones that are easy to deal with.
- Alma is a very prestigious college for being a small school. They have showed me many impressive things about their business program that made me decide to go there
- Alma College does a very good job in the content areas and in opportunities for study and future jobs. On-campus visits from many professional groups are held frequently and are very informative. Internships and summer opportunities for study are also available for students.
- Biology and the science department in general are very strong at Alma. The work is challenging and the professors are knowledgeable and very helpful. They truly care about their students.
- Academics at Alma are the first and only concern for the college. While other aspects of college life suffer, the academics here are second to none.
- The professors are kind and helpful. They will know you by name and help you on whatever you need.
- The Chemistry department is awesome. The best part about the college is the ability to research in the field you are interested in.*(5)
