| Full-time undergraduate program |
I thought the quality of life was comparable to that of most other
schools. It is located in the middle of Providence which makes it easy
to use public transportation systems and provides a lot of things to do
outside of class. Of course, because it is in a city, you have the
issues that come with that, including parking situations, construction
and safety. I never really felt unsafe, but there was always the
stories that I heard from other people that stuck with me in the back of
my mind, but that is really something you have to deal with anywhere you
go. I never personally had a problem with crime or safety. The only
issue with the campus is that it is split up into two different parts
across the city from each other, so if you had a class at one campus and
lived at the other one, it was annoying to get to, but there are buses
that take you there for free with student ID. The dorms were alright,
but a lot of them are 3 and 4 people each, which can be crowded, but
does make it easy to meet people when you first arrive. Dining
facilities are fine, average compared to other schools, from what I've
seen and heard. Some are better than others, but the cooking is mostly
done by culinary students, so every once in a while there is a nice
suprise.
