I love the campus, and the area is beautiful. The town below is a bit shady, but the college is safe. It is important that you don't mind walking, since the area is very hilly. The food is good, but if you ever don't want food from the cafeteria, the Caddy's grill and shop below is always a great option!
Davis & Elkins College has a very clean and safe campus, however, some of the dorms are out dated and slightly dirty. By out dated I mean, no central air, no elevators so handicapped individuals could not access the building, and other things of that nature. In terms of the dorms being dirty, the cleaning staff falls behind often on keeping the bathrooms clean and sharing a bathroom with 24 other girls is not going to stay clean for a long period of time. Otherwise, the staff is amazing, the professors are constantly available and helpful, and because the classes and campus are small, you are recognized as a person and not a number.
The Academics provided, at least for the major I am apart of, is great. The athletic teams/facilities could use some improvements. There also isn’t much to do of campus in the town. The WiFi is not the best and the campus food has gotten a little better.
My opinion on Davis & Elkins College is it is an amazing, friendly and beautiful campus. What I have seen so far is a very friendly admissions, students and professors. The campus is historic and beautiful. I cannot wait to be apart of a family at Davis & Elkins next fall.

I think the best thing about my school is the size. I like the small school atmosphere. I believe it gives the students a chance to get to know their classmates and their professors. I also think it allows the students to interact more with the prefessors. The small campus gives students of different backgrounds and ethics to become friends. I like the small campus.
Anyone who is ready to jump onto a moving train right as it's just starting to speed up. A student who likes to form and change with a growing school, and is prepared to take this growth far beyond academics and into every aspect of there lives. A student who loves learning and is ready to make a commitment to improve.
Davis and Elkins is small, quaint and full of life.
They are very carring.
It has small class sizes and isn't far from home. The faculty and staff are extremely nice and very helpful.
Anyone who needs to be in a small school.
School has a great historical background to it.
very hard working and fundamental. hard working on the aspect of learning but fundamental on the aspect for the staff and faculty making their best and well known effort to make sure we learn what we need for the real world, not only make sure were having fun!
I wish I had known the atmosphere would be so great and the learning so entertaining to me. compared to the school I used to attend it is much better.
I think one of the worst things I could see about my school is we have a slight clique problem. It just seems while everyone talks to one another, they also don't want to leave their comfort zone at times.
I brag about how hard the nursing program is and that it is the hardest one in the state. Meaning I'm doing well and I anticipate a very good future looking for a job in my career.
The most frustrating thing about Davis and Elkins is that everything is closed on Sunday, which happens to be my only day off. I practice with my team 6 days a week, and I find it difficult to run my errands during the week when I have practice and class.
