What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?
Odd rules like no dancing unless it is some type of cultural dance. The meal plan situation; the meal plans are pretty unfair. You can only use your meal plans during certain times and you are only allowed to get certain things with your meal plan. We pay the money for our meal plan we should be able to use them when we want and get what we want with them.

What's unique about your campus?
The small classrooms are by far one of my favorite aspects of this school. Though I was afraid that such a small school would merely be a replica of high school, I have found that I love the small atmosphere. Such an environment really helps me to soak up information as I don't feel like cattle, I feel like an individual to each and every one of my teachers.

What kind of person should not attend this school?
The classes at Abilene Christian University prepare you for the real world and the professors prepare you for your further classes. Different courses can be more challenging than others so some students may have to work a little harder than others but in the long run Abilene Christian gets you prepared. Students who aren't willing to put in the time to work, study, and who aren't willing to ask questions when they don't understand would not do well.

Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!
This school is unique because of how friendly and accessible the faculty and professors are. I also applied to some very large schools, but after spending nearly a year here with only about 4000 others, I am so glad I picked a small school. If I need to meet for advising or about ideas I have about research, all I need to do is shoot the faculty member a quick email and I can meet with them personally within the next week. That's just something that would not happen at a large university.

What are the academics like at your school?
Academics are great! Classes are relatively small, professors know you by name and actually like talking with you. Some of them will even invite you to their house for study groups! ACU is also a very respectable school and has a good reputation. Maybe not as good as UT or A&M, but still up there.

Is the stereotype of students at your school accurate?
Not completely. Sure, there are some stuck up kids but most people are very friendly. A lot of students do come from wealthy families but that does not make them rude or stuck up. And then there are a lot of people that don't have much money and are going to be in a lot of debt after college. But ACU makes it all worth it. Most students are Christian and religious but there is always going to be that party crowd. It's not very big but we do still have one. Also, ACU is full of white kids but it is pretty diverse as well. We have students from all over the nation and world come here.
