I feel great about my experience at Manhattan. As a small school, its pros and cons are foreseeable: it has the benefits of comfort, with the drawback of limited in-house resources. It's not too far from the big atmosphere of NYC, whose appeal is universal, but also provides a unique social "college experience." The English department's tightly knit and super focused persona encourages their students to succeed thoroughly in the classroom. In retrospect, the School of Arts' "heads-down" approach was a bit isolated from the application of an arts degree, but their diligence is admirable. Overall, I learned a lot there from great professors and met some great people.
