Susquehanna University Students Tell It Like It Is

Heading to Susquehanna may sound like a daunting task, but with a College Prowler guidebook by your side, you’ll know the lay of the land before you even arrive.

For instance, you can spout out facts like, “Selinsgrove residents made it into the record books in 1988 by constructing the longest banana split. It was over four miles long!” After you tell this to that cute person you’ve been flirting with, they will want nothing more than to kiss you right then and there.

The College Prowler guide to Susquehanna has more than interesting facts; it is home to the reality of your University. Inside are accounts from real students that paint a more honest picture than any brochure you receive in the mail.

“I don’t know if there’s anything that someone might want to stay away from, or that they necessarily want to visit, either. You end up visiting everywhere before you graduate, but it’s a small town, and for people who are from a town bigger than 5,000, I think it can be a hard adjustment.”

“The computer network is mostly wired, but I hear they are expanding it. I would bring my own computer, but there is a 24-hour computer lab that isn’t crowded all the time. I know a lot of my friends are in there late.”

“All the facilities are very nice, and the entire campus in general is very beautiful.”

“I do not know much about sports; I am not a sports person. Sports are not that big on campus.”

These are the most honest opinions you can find about the school anywhere. So when you’re researching Susquehanna, who are you going to believe—the faculty and brochures who want your money or the students who have lived the experience you’re going to live the next four years?

Find out if Susquehanna University truly has something for you, straight from the students’ mouths.

The College Prowler Process

While writing our series of college guides, we felt it was critical that our content was unbiased and unaffiliated with any college or university. By hiring current students as authors, we strive to create college guides that truly represent each campus. Our guides cover both the good and the bad, and whether survey responses point to recurring trends or varying opinions, these sentiments are directly and proportionally expressed through our guides.

From the very beginning, student writers gather the most up-to-date stats, facts, and inside information on their colleges. They fill each section with student quotes and summarize the findings in editorial reviews. In addition, each school receives a collection of letter grades (A through F) that reflect student opinion. Once a guide is written, additional college students serve as editors and check for accuracy even more extensively. This same process is applied to all of the 258 colleges and universities College Prowler currently covers. Each guide is the result of endless student contributions, hundreds of pages of research and writing, and countless hours of hard work. All of this has led to the creation of a student information network that stretches across the nation. It’s no easy accomplishment, but it’s the reason that our guides are such a great resource.
