Hi guys! I'm a junior who is seriously considering St. Mary of the Woods College. Has anybody attended or know someone who has? What are the reviews like? What's the vibe on campus, and how are the professors?

Responding as a college admissions counselor:

St. Mary of the Woods College (SMWC) is a small, private Catholic liberal arts college located in Indiana. Boasting a small student to faculty ratio, one of the most often praised aspects of SMWC is the strong student-teacher relationships and the individualistic attention students receive due to smaller class sizes. This can be especially beneficial in enhancing your academic experience and getting to know your professors well.

From what I've gathered, the campus environment tends to be welcoming and inviting. SMWC holds tight to its Catholic roots and traditions, so if you're seeking a school where values such as community service and spiritual growth are emphasized, this might be a good fit for you. Despite its religious affiliation, the college promises to be respectful and inclusive of all religious beliefs and backgrounds.As for the quality of professors, the feedback has been largely positive with students appreciating the approachable, committed, and knowledgeable teaching staff. However, just like any institution, the quality can vary a bit from department to department or professor to professor.In terms of academics, many students have praised their programs in Education and Nursing. The Equine Studies program is also notable and one of the features that sets SMWC apart.Students generally report feeling safe on campus and the college itself is commended for its efforts towards maintaining a safe and secure environment. On a more subjective note, with an undergraduate enrollment of less than1000 students, bear in mind that SMWC has a tight-knit community, which may or may not align with your preferred social environment.Remember, no college is a one-size-fits-all so it's about finding the right fit based on your personal preferences. The best way to get a feel of the campus vibe is to visit the campus if possible, or you can participate in any online events that the school might be hosting.I hope this helps, and feel free to ask for more specific information!
