The opportunities the Career Center provide for students. Over breaks there are several networking dinners and job shadowing experiences.

Ashley

I brag about the quality of my education and how beautiful the campus is. Classes were small and professors were very accessable. The campus is also immaculate. The small campus size allows most students to know eachother and form close relationships. Also SERVO the cafeteria is really great.

Kelsey

Gettysburg has a small, beautiful campus and less than three thousand people. This small school atmosphere makes for small classroom sizes and better, more involved professors. We have a wide range of majors here at Gettysburg, including those not-so-common ones that I am taking (Anthropology and Classical Studies), and even the option to create a major. Gettysburg has a lot of clubs and organizations that not many other schools have, like fencing, for instance. We have a fantastic study abroad program that includes over 40 countries one can study in as well. Also, the food is fantastic!
