The way the classes are set up, you won't miss anything that is said/signed in class.

The campus is beautiful and small and is set up to help every student succeed.

For what is offered, the school is a great deal for what is given to help every student succeed.

Apply early to get scholarships that are offered.

This is a great school for deaf students who want a top notch education.

it is a wonderful university for bilingual students, especially deaf, hard of hearing, and coda students. gallaudet university students shows lot of respect for others, new signers, non-signers, or fluent signers. it is a paradise.

This university radiates a welcoming atmosphere with students and faculty that are tight-knit and are accepting of one another no matter their status. The buildings are widely dispersed but overflowing with history as they offer varying activities, courses, and majors.

The classrooms allow a connection between the students and professor as the use of American Sign Language is the key way of communication to interact during the lessons. They take pride in their academics and of their determined, motivated students.

However, the dorms themselves are simple enough to add your own spin of personality and to form a everlasting friendship with a potential roommate.

The cafeteria itself and various cafes that are present on the campus are absolutely perfect for the student life. You are welcome to different atmospheres of eateries where you can hang out and stuff yourself with delicious goodies and meals.

Gallaudet is an awesome college, where you can be successful, and achieve your goal. It doesn't matter if you are old, young, disabled, not disabled, deaf, hearing, hard of hearing, and more you can still attend this college. If you have big dreams and don't know what college to go to, Gallaudet can help.

Make sure you check out the college before attending. Make sure you can afford everything also.

All kind sof clubs and activities. Look on gallaudet.edu to find more.

Gallaudet has give me the opportunity to prove myself as an deaf individual, not only to my family, to the society as well. Not only opportunities poured in, the communication at Gallaudet has made it accessible for the deaf students. I can say I fell in love with Gallaudet and am proud to call myself deaf.

Gallaudet is a great school if you ever felt left behind with the communication, and being a freshman is probably the most important year of college years since it is when your GPA starts and it's hard to get good GPA if you didn't take your freshman year seriously.

The teachers there signs, and they provided interpreters for those students who are there to learn. The teachers ensures that we understand the materials and expect the best from us.

I can not be the judge since I live off-campus, but from what I see dorm life made the interaction easy for those who are new faces.

We have cookers and it may take a long line to get the food we want, but they are there everyday making sure we enjoy our meals.

There are immaterial sports for everyone to play without needing commitment, there are organizations (I am working on setting up a running organization since my school do not have any sports organization), bash, events, plays, and poetry.

I am 24 years old and I always have hated school, I would call myself a jock, but after I entered Gallaudet I can say I never have been this eager to learn more .I have strong ADD so I can not pay attention to interpreters at all times so with the teachers signing and my motivation to learn just kicked in and got my attention.

Every year, they have this tradition called Bald day for freshman only. They shave their head (boys and girls) to follow the tradition, they also have Rat funeral which is a tradition for freshmen as well, to honor their class and bury a fake rat to represent.

Deaf, Hard of Hearing, Interpreters majors, who are eager to learn.

They provide sports, bash, events for international students, to show their support they also have gay and lesbians clubs that gets together and show their pride.

I am more of a Liberal. From what I see, the sorority sisters are close no matter what form or race they come in, they accept all and love all.

the security are 24/7 and are everywhere.

An excellent school for Deaf, Hard of Hearing or students already familiar with ASL. You will be given a well-rounded education and become familiar with more than just your major. Staff and faculty are very helpful and friendly.

Become familiar with the DC metro system. Make sure to have a basis in American Sign Language before applying.

Excellent location. Near DC's metro and bus lines.

DC and the surrounding areas offer an unlimited number of opportunities. The area is rich with history, art, nature and events.

Deaf, Hard of Hearing and students already established in ASL

Gated campus. Constant patrolling by security. However, when leaving campus, make sure to travel in twos, especially at night. The surrounding area can be a bit dangerous at times.
