Dayton, OH
University of Dayton

Overall, I am in love with my university. I could not imagine myself going literally anywhere else because it legitimately feels like a second home to me. I am so happy with the people surrounding me not only educationally, but also relationally. The atmosphere is something indescribable and unlike any other college campus. I have yet to meet one person attending or has attended the University of Dayton that does not have only good things to say about it.

UD is honestly a great place to pursue your post secondary education. It has an awesome campus vibe, and a snug, tight-knit community, and a strong sense of service to ones self and peers. There a multitude of things to do on campus, including clubs, recreational areas, student organizations and more! Not to mention their top tier educational programs!

Overall, I have had an amazing experience here! I have made good friends who live by me in my dorm and I feel that I really get to claim my education. There is a huge sense of pride in having community here and professors encourage you to follow your vocation in what you decide as your career path and want you to succeed.

It was a great college experience, with a safe and welcoming environment. The academics were good, especially the engineering programs. The class sizes were also small and professors know students by name. Some of the buildings and facilities could use updated.

The high school that I graduated from is on the campus, so I have known this college for many years. The campus is fun and has many things to do especially on the weekend. People are mostly nice. I'm glad to have been accepted at UD. I wish that there were more restaurants on campus. I also wish that all of the dorms were consistent in size.

I absolutely love the University of Dayton. I feel like I am 100% prepared for what I will find when I graduate college. I love the community it has, and I am happy to share my experiences. Being a UD student has shown me that education is not all about studying, but it is about loving how you are doing it and loving the culture. You will find both of these things at the University of Dayton.

*I'm actually attending St. Mary's University in San Antonio, TX. Know that StMU and UD are sisters school. With that in mind... These are fine institutions. The presence of the Sisters, Brothers and Priests from The Society of Mary makes a HUGE difference. Their charism is passed through everything we do; we focus on our family spirit, hospitality, growing holistically, becoming active members of society, and mindful the impact our decisions have. If given the chance, I would choose this Marianist institution all over again.

When I started at the University of Dayton, I felt its famous sense of community. I have never felt more at home; all the students and faculty are so kind, and they are always looking out for one another. The academic side of the university is top notch. The professors want each student to succeed and are available for help and guidance in and outside the classroom. There are so many wonderful activities and groups to be involved in, and all the facilities on campus are incredible. I recommend the community-centered University of Dayton to any prospective student I meet because I believe it is the best school.

University of Dayton is an overall great place. The student body is amazingly welcoming. There are so many opportunities to get involved in campus activities. Greek life is an option, but not a huge presence on campus. The food is great. Only downside is the living situation. Campus housing is based on a point system, so you must be committed to getting points in order to get the campus housing you want.

This is the greatest place on earth. I honestly have nothing bad to say about this university. When you walk on campus, there is a big emphasis on "community" and how there is a huge sense of community on campus. One may seem like this emphasis is just a gig to get people to be interested in the university, but I truly felt this gust of wind that I call community the second I stepped on campus. From the people to the campus to the academics to the food to the living arrangements, there is not a single thing that I can think of that is wrong with this university. I have truly come to love it in so many different ways. I can call the University of Dayton my home.
