What Students Are Saying

Academically, Colby sets very high expectations for the students, but there are countless opportunities to seek out help. Every professor I have ever encountered has been more than willing to assist me in anyway they can, both academically and personally. Finally, Colby provides you with two advisors (an academic advisor and an advising dean) who are there to answer any questions you may have about Colby's policies, academics, or the steps you must take to reach your career goals.

very difficult, but there are so many resources (ex. chem help, calculus after hours, tutors, etc.) to make use of. older student are always willing to assist as well.
