Academics

I'm a music major and I have a huge work load. It takes a lot of determination and will power to get everything done in a timely manner. I know my professors do it to try to challenge me.

If you take the right classes, then you're going to get the right challenge. There are a wide variety of courses and a large range of difficulty. It's college, so it's meant to make you think. Converse does an excellent job providing classes that make you think.

Converse provides some challenging courses. The honors program, especially, challenged me. They have a fairly extensive general education program, which is to be expected from a liberal arts school. They cover courses in a wide variety of areas, from The Economics of Middle Earth, to The Biology of Sexuality, to The Statistics of Games and Gambling. The classes will challenge you, but many will also catch your interest, and that is where their strengths lie.

Academics can be a challenge, but as long as you work hard you will be fine. The professors are really helpful. Ask lots of questions.

When it comes to academics, Converse provides great teachers who are willing to help students any time. Students are encouraged to ask questions and study diligently in order to step up in their academics. At Converse, academics is very important, therefore students who do well are recognized and awarded.

everyone seems ready to learn! i had the opportunity to talk with several professors at an open house event, and they seemed genuinely interested in my opinions and intended major. the classes are small, and seem geared toward individual attention. i am very excited to see a class first-hand.
