Faizah - 12/03/2020

I like it because it’s in a safe neighborhood. The town is very close that you can just take the train right in front of the school’s gate, and get off at the first stop and you’ll be in town, with an access to restaurants, shops, the green, AMC, and others. The school keeps activities interesting, there are from school dances, to trivia’s with prizes, to movie nights, to educational seminars about academics or everyday life. The sport teams are very united. The professors are very caring and are at your disposition at any time, even at night. This facilitate the learning process. The cafeteria food has a variety, mostly healthy but very tasty.

College of Saint Elizabeth is not only enriching, but it is also welcoming. I may have only been here for a short amount of time, but I must admit I feel much at home. I have extreme social anxiety and making friends does not come easy for me. The close-knit feel of the small campus eases my anxiousness. I like how if attention is needed in class, it is given. I am really looking forward to the next three years at the College of Saint Elizabeth.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    Brittinie Campbell, High school has been all but easy due to different challenges and life changing situations. You weathered the storm despite much negativity and adversity. Losing your father in 2006 should have been the death of you. In that year a large part of your soul was shaken. You encountered ups and downs that you continue to face day to day. Depression, missing classes, feeling as if there was no one in your corner, and wanting to be all alone were just a few of the milestones you conquered daily. Your senior year showed many challenges, and you almost did not suceed. With the strength of God, the guidence of your mother, and the sport of volleyball you learned and acquired the skills necessary to suceed in life. Remember that as the years have passed you have been to hell and back, but despite it all you always come out on top. Know that God will never put you through anything you cannot handle, and that your life runs this course for a reason. Embrace your past, and look forward to your future. Take it one step at a time, and failure will never become your reality.

  3. What's unique about your campus?

    The best thing about my college is that there are so many great students here. They are all willing to help each other and are not competitive. The campus is very quiet on the weekends because most people go home or work on the weekends. This allows fewer distractions academically. Another good thing is that every student gets a scholarship when they attend CSE.

  4. Describe how your school looks to someone who's never seen it.

    My school is one that provides opprotunities for all students, and encourages them to think outside the box, and strenghten themselves in all aspects of being a young woman, and a person overall.

  5. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    The worse thing about the college is the cirriculum. The college does not offer a wide variety of majors because of its size. This makes it difficult for students to select a major and stick to it. This also becomes a disadvantage to those who come to the college with a certain career path in mind, and find that the courses required for this pathway are not offered at the college.

  7. Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!

    if you have low SAT and nowhere to go, not want to go to county college, and still want a degree with high GPA, this is the school for you, but if you end up having a sexual relationship with a professor, the college will never protect you, they will kick you out so fast, and keep the professor since this college offer low salary, and is hard to find qualify people to work for them.

  8. What kind of person should attend this school?

    My school is a women's Catholic college. While you don't have to be Catholic, the school is centered around faith and community service. You really should be a woman who is strong in her beliefs and extremely dedicated to helping others. Also, one of the values of the school is tolerance and acceptance. There are girls of varying race, religion, sexuality, and color at CSE so a person going here would really have to be able to not only tolerate differences but embrace them as well. Our differences and our dedication to helping others makes CSE really incredible.

  9. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    This school is not for those who seek a wild college life. It is very old fashioned in some ways for example, it is very religious and is an all female school where men are not allowed in the dorm after midnight. If you also seek large class sections, and variuos or rare class selections this school is not for you. Also Seniors MUST take Comprehensive exams in order to graduate since we are one of the few schools that require them.
