Goucher College — Local services in Towson

Horrible institution. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE. The entire college is just a money making scam. They don't care about your education here or your rights to an education. The administration is awful and has no clue what they're doing. If they don't like you for one reason or another they will begin targeting, harassing and attacking you until you get out of their school because they don't actually want you there. They aren't innovative or friendly, all they do is falsely advertise these things. Half of the people who enroll here as a freshman want to GTFO and transfer someplace better at the end of their first semester. This college depresses the students who live on campus. Only send your kids here if you want to waste your time, money, and degrade your child's mental health. Your time and money could be going to a better school that actually cares about the well-being and education of your child. Any school that you choose WILL be better than Goucher College in every aspect, even a community college. Again, DO NOT GO HERE if you don't want to waste your own valuable time and money. There are plenty of better options around. If I had the option to rate Goucher as 0...

Security needs an update and there needs to be more lights on campus. I've never felt so unsafe walking through a campus. Cafeteria prices are unfair, the dorm buildings are dirty (Stimson's stairwells have 4+ inches of dust on them), and the only nice area of the school is Pagliaro Selz Hall, which is only for Freshman (absolutely heinous). I think the school needs to assess who they are serving, the students or the investors. Update: Their three newest buildings are only for freshmen. As far as respecting students this school fails time and time again. If you want a high priced, alienating, and disrespectful college experience Goucher will be sure to meet those standards. The college has also cut many majors and minors. Which begs the question: What are they doing with the piles and piles of money the...

This is an excellent college with outstanding professors who want to know that you understand the instructions/lessons, retain what you were advised, and use what you were taught. The campus is breath taking...you don't mind studying while laying outside on the grass and listening to music or just the winds. The grounds are immaculate. The food is even great. Want to wonder off campus??? Well, feel free but security is "always at the entrance" to assure that students (and associated staff/faculty/friends) are the only ones on campus. It is not only a safe campus but you truly feel secluded from the world when you are there. Top Security, Top Academics, Top buildings, Nice rooms, Great people, Outstanding professors, Wonderful activities, Great events. It certainly will "spoil" you....
