The teachers are amazing at Chowan University, All of the teacher should me how to study and worked with me on the projects. The make their-selves friendly and someone you can really talk to.

I love being there I live in Hampton, Virginia and its not that far from Chowan, located in Murfreesboro, North Carolina. The people are so friendly and its easy to make friends there.

Some students complain about the price,but financial aid is available.

Make sure you enjoy your last year of high school and ask different people about their college adventure, find someone you could model and talk to them. Then prepare yourself for the journey. Make sure you either get familiar with the place if you are not from the east coast. And remember to just have fun.

Great place for Christians who and to experience God at a young age. There are ministries over the campus to help you cope with your new life. And for students who want to meet new people

As a freshman I am learning the real definition of time management. This is an important factor because you chose what time you want your classes to start and what time you want them to end. You don't want to pick a class and you over sleep and miss it.

I love Chowan! When I came for orientation, they welcomed my mother and I with open arms! I knew this was the school for me!

A lot of kids here complain about the price, as long as you apply for scholarships, and do your financial aid, then you are okay.

Enjoy your last year of high school! When you come to orientation here at Chowan ask all kinds of questions! They have faith in your future!

Students who want to get closer to God! This is the school for you!

Chowan University is a wonderful college environment. The school is based in a close-knit community and holds those values. You will feel very welcomed here at Chowan because the student body is very diverse and accepting to all.

The best tips that I can give prospective students are:
1) Be prepared to have personal interaction with your professors. Unlike larger universities, Chowan is smaller so there are more opportunities to have one to one interactions.

2) You will definitely be able to get involved with student activities and even have the opportunity to start your own clubs and organizations. Do NOT be afraid to express you views and opinions! Chowan is accepting to all students.

3) College is a major life transition, you will make friends for life and build relationships that will last a lifetime. If I have learned anything from being in attendance at Chowan University, I know that stepping out of your comfort zone and not being afraid of who you are will enable you to conquer the college life!

The food taste pretty good for school food. I really enjoy their salad bar

The hawks nest is the hang out place where everyone goes.

I do not believe this school is only good for some individuals because I am of Hispanic heritage and I feel right at home although it has a very few Latinos in this school.

The place has a lot of nature and nice outside settings.There is many animals and squirrels there.The weather is always nice and sunny but has a nice cool breeze.

I would say the professors are very good and what they do.The classes are small and gives you a lot more time to ask questions and get help with anything that you are unsure about.

The dorms are nice in simons hall but but belk is a little small .The Jenkins and Simons dorms are roomy and nicer than belk that seems to need to be fixed up.They have new apartment dorms that are known as Whites Crossing it has everything you need like your own apartment.It is very nice.

The food is good somedays but majority time it is the fast food you have to go to in the caferteria.The food is nicely cooked and well done.The desserts they have are quite nice. There favorite things to serve is fried chicken, macaroni and cheese, tacos,nachos and sometimes fajitas.

There is not much to do for fun unless you go to Virginia which is only about 45 minutes away from our school and not far from the beach.

Any type even students that are not Christians

They have every club possible ehre for you to join there is something for everyone.

Security is always on the watch if you need them

Chowan University is located in the historic picturesque town of Murfreesboro, NC. The campus is warm and welcoming. I can't wait to attend here in the fall.
