Campus Visit Notes for Elon University


Visit Description:

Good info session and overall tour. Not much time on the area my D was interested in (Musical Theater) but we got walked over to the performing arts building and met a great guy who showed us around. We then also talked to the admission person briefly for the MT program.

Idyllic campus - suburban feel. Excellent facilities throughout. Fitness center was great! Almost all wireless access and many computers available for students.

Not too much aid but inexpensive compared to other schools in the NE on our list.

Overall, all well planned tour that put this school strongly on our list!
