Love this college so much!

The best part about this school is the community and the number of opportunities to get involved with clubs and organizations.

Total "bang for your buck." The classes are hard, but doable, and the professors are great. It is hard as a psych major to take all the classes I want (limited staff). Food is okay except hours & availability. UPD and Genny police ticket ppl constantly & parking is limited on campus. Gorg views. Small community feel. To party join an organization

Campus is beautiful. Food stinks, not many options and dinning hours blow. Better love Greek life because that is all they have here other than Hockey. Middle of nowhere so there isn't much to do. Classes aren't that hard, but most professors want your life to suck. The only opportunities are for science and business majors. Building updates needed

Geneseo is not what I would call a bad institution, but it has a highly overinflated reputation. The academics are not as challenging as one would expect from the "Harvard of the SUNYs," the acceptance rate has shot way up over the last 5 years, social life is dominated by the Greek scene, etc. Non-bio or ed majors will likely be disappointed.

Need to be involved on campus

Everyone here is the same: "It wasnt my first choice but now that I am here I would never want to leave!" I absolutely love everythinga about this school

Geneseo taught me that reputation isn't everything. Classes are hard for the sake of being hard. Social life is non existent if you're not in greek life. If you're not from the middle of nowhere you're in for a surprise. Basically unless you want to be a doctor or teacher this school is not worth it.

Geneseo has a good reputation but sometimes the academics are unnecessarily rigorous so it can be hard to get good grades. Socially, you need to be involved in greek life if you want to party since parties are closed and there are virtually no bars in town. It's a good school for a hardworking student but don't expect a typical college experience.

My favorite part about campus is the community. Great friendships :)

Great views, great sunsets, and great campus. It's not a far walk from the nearest walmart, and there are busses that will take you there anyways. Main st has plenty of stuff to do, but it feels pretty "cliquey" here - almost like high school just with more independence. If you're not in greek life or a sport then forget about parties and the like.

Classes are great , there is not a single professor that I have not built a great connection with and I had many wonderful opportunities... that being said, outside of school there is nothing. You are in the middle of no where so the only fun is greek life. Terrible mental health services and support also. Rigorous a

I love the atmosphere of this campus. It is so friendly and warm.

Literally no clubs, so socially you have to be apart of a sport/club/sorority. Fun atmosphere and great teachers. Rigorous as rumors say so be ready for a high work load.
