Mcpheson College is a smaller private college which allows the faculty to really connect with their students. My experience at Mcpherson College so far has been overwhelmingly good. My area of study has a lot of competition and has a great environment to learn.
I am in LOVE with McPherson College. I have never had so much fun while learning before while also getting the chance to meet peers from all around the country and the world. Our class sizes are small enough to where all of your professors know your name and your history. There are free activities almost every week for students to attend other than sporting events and theater shows. We are all a very close knit family, no matter where you live, how old you are, or what class you're in.
I love McPherson College! I'm very happy to attend there and be a part of the community! It's definitely the place for me!
In all honesty, when first arriving at McPherson College I didn't think I would enjoy myself at all. However, the small town environment grew on me in a hurry. It became very easy to make friends because of the many campus activities there are. Activities include bingo with prizes such as Air-pods, concert tickets, and even flat screen TV's. The sports atmospheres are electric as well, especially in the rivalry games. Free shirts, hats, sunglasses, and more are given out for attending the games. The dorms get the job done and the cafeteria food has its ups and downs. In all McPherson College is a great place to attend. The AR program is one of the best nationwide. I would recommend this college to anyone who doesn't mind the small town feel.

In high school I took AP classes, got good grades and I didn't procrastinate, much. But if I had to tell myself one thing it would be to work more hours at my job and put more of that money away for savings. College is expensive and I didn't save enough money to make it through my first semester. I would also tell myself to never ever procrastinate because in college the projects are bigger and the deadlines are not flexible, so never starting that habit at all would have prepared me better for the deadlines in college.
My classmates consist of a male domintated, easy going group, who are laid back and boring.
I kinda knew what i was getting myself into when I decided to come here. But i was really really interested in this school so it did not bug me.
There is noone who shouldn't attend this school because the school is very open with everything.
It's a really small college. I call all of my professors by their first names and they know practically every student on campus. It's really nice to be able to have a professor whose office door is always open for students and if it isn't, their cell phones are available for students to call or their house is always open as well.
It's a really small college, where everyone knows everyone and that is really nice.
The most frustrating thing about McPherson College is that I am considered old by many of the students. I am a 31 year old Freshman, I had just recently decided to go to college after being in the military for many years and it has been very challenging for me to reinstate myself in an educational environment.
A small, close, community.
The admissions process can be really difficult at McPherson College, they have an issue with communication between the different offices. For instance, The financial aid department does not communicate when aid has been received into the office, therefore, the business office does not know when aid has been received.
The kind of person that should attend McPherson College should really enjoy being in a small town enviornment. Being involved in the college is also important, whether it's supporting the athletic teams or helping out other students in their classes. Also, if the person is looking for more one-on-one time with their proffesors this would be the right college for them
