Taylor

Overall a very small school. The atmosphere of the school is more of a high school rather than a college. It is a dry, drug-free, and smoke-free campus. There is no football team and even though most of the students are on a sports team there was no real support for the teams and rarely was there ever a big student turnout to the games. There was never really a true student section either. The band is terribly small so no real music or chants to get anyone involved either. Since the school is so small there is not really a choice of professors in most cases. The meal plan is required if you live on campus and you can only use it on campus there is not flex dollars or anything where you can dine off-campus. All sports facilities/fields are off-campus.

Brescia is a very positive environment and everyone is always willing to help. Also the professors will help you one on one if needed. I can walk onto the campus and feel extremely, safe. The upperclassman also encourage the underclassmen for the future of the rest of your college life.

Diego

Brescia University offers a small campus but a nice one. Here you are going to find out that people are really friendly and they enjoy hanging out. Professors are very kind and helpful if you put interest on the subject. The are always available and glad to help. Athletics is a big thing here, specially Basketball. Cafeteria food is not the best.

Jessica

I love this school it has a few down sides such as it being to far away from home and the traffic. Most of the down sides are out of the school’s control. I love that it is a small campus and that I don’t feel like just a number I feel cared about.
