It has been a great opportunity for me to grow and to learn so much more about our community here in the area. I have lived here for more than half of my life and I would not have learned so much in such a short amount of time here had I chosen to go anywhere else. It is extremely inviting and welcoming. I don't mean just the environment, but the people all around. People are willing to go to great lengths to help you out and support you--inside and outside of the classroom. This especially means professors. They are very much involved with student activity and with the ins and outs of student organizations around campus. They are great to work with, from my experiences thus far. It's the perfect scene for a homebody. It's comfortable and right near most places that you'd need to get to--either within walking distance or a short drive. It is definitely a place to get connected with and it has certainly become a second home to me. There have been hiccups of course, but thankfully, because of the push forward with diversity and inclusion, it has become a safe space for everyone around. And, if they are not, those issues are addressed. I have found so many secret amazing places around this campus. It is a decently sized campus but everything is close to a maybe 5-10 minute or less walk, depending on where you're going. They only downside to this campus is the layout flaws, since it is older than most campuses, it has not yet been completely set up for disabled access. Some places make no sense as to why they were built that way, so in the place where there are no elevators, stairs are how you get around as well. I've had some troubles with the school, but it is relatively easy to work with everyone.
Very good. The school is focused on academics and liberal arts. There are also multiple social events, from poetry readings, to sports events. There is something going on almost everyday. There are a few teaks here and there that should be noted, such as the rooms and electricity. Since Freshman year in 2014, the school has had at least 3 brownouts/blackouts. However, the campus is small, which is what I wanted.
Randolph College is an interesting place to be. For an individual that worries about being around lots of people and potentially getting lost, a school like this is great; commutes to class are breezy and class sizes are good sizes: my largest class was about 35 people and my smallest class was 5 people. The downside is that tuition is steady climbing to an IV league institution price, so that's something to think about. People are close-knit and from what I've seen it doesn't take long to find your group.
It's a wonderful school with wonderful staff and professors. It's small everyone knows everyone. I was only there for a semester and move back home because my family wanted me to be closer. They give an ample amount of money for academic scholarships and grands. It's a private school located in Central Virginia. If your looking for small classes and professors who care this is the places for you.

Visit the school. Not once, not twice... but as many times as it take you to get the proper feel of it. Go when there are students there, stay over night. Do anything you can to get to know the school better.
It is a small community with strong academics.
My classmates are wonderful, if somewhat competitive , students who know how to study and how to relax.
Academic standards.
I love the strong connections professors and students have between them. Classes are rarely more than a dozen people, thus allowing for free flowing disucssion based classes. Students hold true to the honor code which enables us to have self scheduled/self proctored exams, unlocked dorm rooms, open mail boxes, and a sense of trust that everyone will take care of each other. Furthermore, the appearance of the campus surpasses even what the word beautiful describes. I consider it my new home and all those who live their my extended family.

That they were going to go co-ed and raise tuition so high.
Randolph College isn't right for a prospective student who just wants to party in a big city or not attend class. If a student isn't comfortable with a very small student population, where everybody knows everybody else, then it isn't the right place for them. Students need to study hard and go to class, not because they are afraid of getting a bad grade, but because they know the professors personally and the student does not want to let them down.
How small our classs sizes are. Next semester I have a class with 4 students.
The culture and history found in this place. We went co-ed for 2008. It's like beginning a whole new chapter.
In my experience, the worst thing about Randolph-Macon Woman's College was the flip-side to being a small college with personal attention from professors. With only two Classics professors, there were a limited number of courses available, some only available every other year. The faculty also noted this issue. As a result, the Classics professors reorganized the major program and created a new accademic schedule that allows them to teach more varied courses. They also took into account the students' need of writing longer papers before the thirty page thesis due at the end of the senior year.
