Macalester College (reviews)

This is a place for people who want to do big things in a small school package that values individuality and marching to your own drummer. The academics are top-notch, the community is close and warm, and it is very easy to design your own tailored program no matter what your future goals may be.

Macalester College is a place where academic brilliance and a diverse, engaged community converge. From the dedicated faculty to the supportive campus life, every aspect of the college is designed to foster intellectual growth and personal development. The campus’s thriving neighborhood setting provides an ideal backdrop for both academic pursuits and extracurricular activities, making Macalester a truly enriching college experience.

Macalester College is a stimulating place to learn, with an emphasis on global citizenship, a rigorous academic environment, and professors who are passionate about teaching and mentoring. The intimate class sizes and vibrant campus life offer a unique and enriching experience for students.

Going to school at Macalester is amazing, the quality of education is one of the best in America, as well as having a varied international student base. However, living at Macalester is less than fun, outdated dorms and poorly managed halls and offices lead to long waiting times and frustrating nights. Though altogether I would definitely recommend Macalester to anyone who truly prioritizes their education over all.
