Eckerd College Reviews

"Eckerd College is a wonderful place to learn and be involved in a community. The campus is beautiful, green, and full of wildlife that can be seen daily. Most students choose to live on campus all four years, creating a unique and active community to be involved in. However, the food service provider, cafe bon apetit, is horrible and a total scam that somehow continues to operate on campus. If it weren’t for the atrocious food, living on campus would be an incredible 5 star experience. The academics are top notch in the sciences, with caring professors that are willing to provide ample opportunities to any dedicated student who is interested. It is a lovely little place to spend your college years.Read Less"

"Eckerd College was indeed a college that changes lives. I am a more compassionate, intelligent, and well-rounded individual from having attended this college. From the very start this colleges education program is so well thought out. They do an Autumn term to help freshman get used to the college experience before overwhelming them with upper classmates. We are encouraged to become active members in our local communities and they require a reflective service learning course. They provide numerous guests speakers to encourage provoking thoughts and allow a plethora of opportunities to study abroad. In addition, fun activities are endless as the campus activities office plans events each week to get students interested and involved in their own campus.Read Less"

"I am currently enrolled as a Master's student at Florida Atlantic University. I am pursuing my dreams of furthering my education and hopefully becoming a research professor. My time at Eckerd College helped prepare me for this next rigorous step. However, there is no type of time commitment I have faced like graduate school requires. The broad and diverse educational background I received at Eckerd has really helped me to stand out, in and out of the classroom. As a smaller school, Eckerd, really helps students become comfortable being themselves and greatly advocates diversity and self promotion. I have become very comfortable working with others and know to rely on myself.Read Less"

"It was a fantastic place to go to college. Everyone is nice and friendly, the classes are challenging and interesting. I know I couldn't have gotten the experience anywhere else."
