It really is not in a small city. It’s in… like… a small town. If even a town! Basically, to get there, I drive 45 minutes as far away from civilization as I can, and then I end up at Oxford. That being said, when I visited, I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. The entire campus would probably fit inside my high school’s main building (we have 3500+ students), but it’s at least pretty nice. The two new dorms (Alpha and Beta) were GREAT, and I really did like them. The rooms aren’t tiny and though they do have community bathrooms, each room (may be wrong about this - but the room in which I stayed did) has a little sink, which is really convenient. However, the other dorms were… kinda gross… lol. The dining hall was (of course) pretty tiny but the food was bearable - they DO have wonderful pastries and lots of fruit (and fruit is… what I eat, lol, so that was good :]). Everyone knows everyone here, and they know everything about them too. Which scares me a lot. That was a huge turn-off for me about this school, it seemed like wherever people walked, they already knew EVERYONE… boring? I dunno, some people like a really tightly-knit community like that, but it’s just not for me.
There are DEFINITELY leadership opportunities here, and study abroad opportunities, etc - this is because with only ~700 other students, everyone has a big chance to get things, and this school has a LOT of things available for the students (lol, their library is… lame… though, but you can go to Emory’s, not too far away).</p>
<p>Anyway, that’s all I can think of, if you have any other questions about it, just PM me and I’ll try to answer - this is all based off of a scholarship weekend there, and they’ve given me a full tuition scholarship, so I’m sorta considering going there.</p>
