Very personal with professors. Nothing is private because everyone knows everyone. Family atmosphere, but get the feeling that the school is not worth $40k a year! In order to get the "real" college experience, always leave your dorm doors open and go to every activity you possibly can!
My overall opinion of Paul Smith's College is that is purely wonderful here. The campus is lovely, the students are always finding something to do outdoors, and the small student population allows everyone to be together regardless of who they are, what they believe, or where they are from.
Overall Paul Smiths is a great hands on school where you feel like a family. There is always something for everyone here between clubs and sports you can never be left out. The mountains and nature around up is a very calming and relaxing environment that no one could resist.
Paul Smiths College of Arts and Science is a school I look forward to attending in the fall. I can't wait to attend and start my Psychology major, one of the newest to Paul Smiths College. I find it very interesting and cool that I will be one of the first of some students to take the fairly new course. As well as my excitement for the course i'm excited to become a member of the men's basketball team. I aspire to be one of the best student athletes to ever come out of Paul Smiths College of Arts and Science. When visiting the school I realized while looking over the lake view that, this school is the one for me. What topped it off even more was when I stepped on the basketball court during the tour it blew my mind how great the court is and at that moment with the classes being the right size for me, being able to take the course I want, the basketball and lake view, made my decision easy. I'm aware that the journey that lies ahead is rough but I know for a fact that I'll be ready for whatever is to come. The people at Paul Smiths College of Arts and Science are extremely friendly and welcoming. This being so makes traveling four hours away from home not so scary as I imagined. Overall Paul Smiths College of Arts and Science is a school that I look forward to attending for many reasons.

Going back to senior year there is a lot I would've told myself. To start off, I'd let myself know that I need to appriciate the support of my family, especially having them so close while in high school. In college, 5 hours away from home, your mom and dad can not speed over whenever you need help. When you encounter your first problem at school, that's when you realize that you are officially on your own. Secondly, I would tell myself that when you leave for college you descide who you want to be. It's a fresh start so take complete adventage of it. With that being said, jump in. Do as many clubs and activities you can and try as hard as you can in classes. Joining clubs and being active is so important, you meet many new people and get to try so many new things. Lastly, take advantage of the resources available at school. GO TO THE LIBRARY!! It's a magical place that you can get tons of work done and meet new and helpful people. There any many other resources that can aid you making the college transition easier.
My classmates at this school are awesome! Paul Smiths is so small that everyone is close and everyone knows each other without drama. Classmates are always supportive and ready to help if you need it.
Very country/red-neck, very conservite, lots of ford trucks and guns for hunting. The guys can be sexist/racist. The school is in the middle of nowhere! Most teachers go out of their way to help you! girls, you can have just about any guy you want as the ratio is 7:1, guys to girls! Use verizon cell phones... only ones that get reception! If your bringing a car make sure it runs VERY good or you are a pro at fixing it.
There isn't a lot about my school that is terrible. A couple things would have to be the food; Sodexo already has our money for the semester so they don't care about the quality of food they serve us. Also the facilities in the administration building are no help at all. If you go ask for help with financial aid for example they do not help, they tell you you’re on your own.
My school is known for being the only school located in the Adirondack Park in New York. This makes us very special, we are located on a lake and have a gorgeous view of the mountains.
Class/labs are taught outside (if in the sciences programs). Beautiful campus.
the proffesuers are awsome. i am on a first name basis with nearly all of them and consider many of them to be my friends
Someone that knows how to have a good time and like to recreate in the outdoors
Type of person who lieks to be near everything. Also one who is needy for city life and doesnt know how to appreciate nature and its beauty
It gets cold out during the winter. Also its a 15 minute drive to town, but you are alowed a car.
