Lebanon Valley College — Attraction in Annville

I finished my degree here and really found the small school atmosphere refreshing after four years at a 28,000+ university. I did not live on campus so I can't tell you about that experience. The departments are small enough that you can't get lost but large enough to give you great opportunities. They can at times be frustratingly small however and tend not to overwhelm with options. Overall they restored much of my faith in higher education and as some one who dislikes school by and large, I had a genuinely enjoyable time in a difficult class (physical chemistry if you were wondering).

In general, this is a very unpleasant school in terms of academics and facilities. The majority of the facilities are incredibly outdated, and are in need of serious overhaul to deal with the needs of an ever evolving student body.

Avoid this place!! It is in the middle of nowhere! There is no train station, no airport, no shop, nothing. You have to go through Harrisburg, but after that it is a hassle to get there!

If the college offers to host any conference there, don't choose that place. You will end up with nothing but waste...
