Keuka College offers great diversity because of there multicultural affairs office and activities. Also, due to their programs outreaching to Chinese students, there is no limit to the amount of ne ideas and cultures you can learn.

You may think Keuka is in the middle of nowhere, but that is far from the truth. Yes, Keuka is in the heart of farm country, but there are many ways to enjoy yourself. With the open space of the country, the small activities can be made quite extravagant. Also, the school is only 45 minutes to any major city like Ithaca or Rochester. The views are amazing due to the college being right on Keuka College, and the area is bustling in the summer and spring months. It is so peaceful and relaxing to be hear with plenty of ways to enjoy yourself. Not only that but being in the heart of wine country is an added bonus.

You will not get views or community like this in many places. People are so close to each other and the area is breathtaking. The college is also great for diversity and small town values. Because of the yearly Field Periods, you can get your foot in the door for careers when you graduate, which you won't find anywhere else, making this requirement priceless!

Like any college, work is a must. Being here, it is easy to get distracted to be sure to have strong will power but be sure not to get too overworked. Also, Get involved! Being in a small environment, you get noticed for what you do! So be sure to do stuff.

It's great for anybody who like small environments. Being from around a big city, it is relaxing for me to be around a small area for a while. Even though you are in school, it feels like a three month vacation.

Keuka College really enhances your ability to learn the information. If you are struggling in a class, the professors are easily accessible, especially during their office hours, for you to seek extra help. They find ways to make the learning truly hands-on to help you retain the information more.

Keuka is a fun place to be. Like everyone else said, the school is on a beautiful lake (Keuka Lake) in Upstate, NY. The view IS breathtaking and the people here are amazing. You definitely meet friends you will have for a lifetime and every faculty and staff member are friendly and always willing to help. Everyone gets to know you for your name, not a number.

As I said, Keuka makes sure they can make the learning hands-on, whenever possible. The education is what they say it is, especially the field periods. The field periods were what attracted me to Keuka, to help make sure I am going in the correct career path. Field periods definitely help you a lot and look good on resumes!

Don't let the amount of activities around campus hold you back from keeping up your grades. The view of the lake, the nearby cities, and the activities on campus during the week and pretty much every weekend can help take your focus away from school. You will learn to balance it all out though-- fun and school is in the near future at Keuka!

Students who like small schools will definitely enjoy it here. If you want to be known for a name and be remembered, you definitely will fit in at Keuka. Those students who want the hands-on learning, especially through field periods, should come here-- they truly help you realize if you're going in the correct field!

this is a rural campus that has a waterfront view of one of most beautiful finger lakes in the region. it's dedicated to education and makes sure that you leave here knowing what you want to do for the rest of your life. every year you get the month of january off to do an internship allowing you the opportunity to explore different fields till you find the one the best fits you.

make sure you come and visit so you know that it is a secluded campus and that you think you can handle not being right next to the city.

the teachers will challenge you but make sure you make a schedule that you can handle and if you ever need help there are so many resources that will go out of their way to make sure you understand the material. for example, we have an ask office with adult tutors, students tutors, teacher will help, librarians, and other students form study groups.

each dorm is different but with which ever one you choose there are always resident hall activities going on so you get better equated with the people you're living with.

the cafeteria has its good days and bad days. but overall they are really good because they have a lot of home cooked meals instead of always fried and it's always really fresh.

you can join a slew of clubs and intermurals, when it's nice you can go canoeing and kayaking in the lake you can even rent one of the school's boats, or you can go to the many campus wide activities they have going on.

could use some remodeling but the view is priceless.

right on the late and the chapel is absolutely beautiful.

small town and outdoorsy.

so many different kinds of clubs and activities. there's no way you won't be able to find one that you're interested in.

none

really a safe campus.

1) The location is awesome
2) The help for good grades is amazing
3) You only can only loose if you don't put in the effort and not do good.

Save up your money

For me it's a comfy life because i get to spend a lot of alone time to myself and the beds are good. it is so relaxing.

Anything I guess you put your mind to. Some people go out , party, smoke , drink and do whatever they feel like doing. I stay in my room and play video games and hang around others sometimes for fun. There are campus parties set up by different clubs now and then.

I am not fully sure on either unusual traditions and locations because I haven't been much apart of anything yet.

Yes it is great all around however it does depend on the person and how they feel about the school.

There is various clubs and activities for everyone to do and get involved in.

There is no greek life

Campus safety is always around and they do their job. They always make sure everything is how its suppose to be.

It is the most beautiful campus I have ever seen.
They really make you feel at home.
They provide many resources so that you can succeed.

If you choose to come here you will have many great professors. However, do not take their kindness for granted. Do take some time to explore Penn Yan a bit. Don't be afraid to work in work study jobs. Some of the coworkers you get can be a great support system. Also use all your resources. They can be great tools to keep your grades up.

There are many amazing classes to take here. Many majors require you to get a C or higher to be able to pass the class for your major requirements. They also require that you do Field Periods, which are kind of like internships. These help a lot with building your resume.

The dorms are awesome here. They are even currently getting some renovations done. We are getting new lounges in all the dorms and the bathrooms are getting some small cosmetics taken care of.

The food is good and the people are excellent. The only problem is that you can get tired of the same thing over and over again. This would be a problem anywhere.

During the warmer months we have our own small strip of beach by the lake to swim in. There are also many events that go on on campus. I especially love going to bingo. They usually have amazing prizes there.

There is a good variety of clubs here. They do campus wide events and community service. On top of it all if you participate in clubs enough they can be put on an official transcript for you.

Campus safety is excellent here. They have blue poles all over campus that have a button that calls for help directly to the sheriffs office. The security here are also there when you need them and are really friendly.

Perfect for the student who needs to work full time. Their use of cohort sites makes it easy to attend classes. Once in a cohort you spend the duration of your program with the same class so you build friendships and support groups.

A good choice if you want flexibility along with a challenging program.

This program enhances me more than I could have imagined.

I'm off campus, but I have heard good things

Again, off campus.

Sorry, off campus!

Its home away from home, a paradise with learning. I love it here its expensive but I do not want to leave. Everyone is friendly I was from the city no one is nice from where I am from this place is a God send.

Study hard, Go to class, take 15 credits in case you need to drop a class so you can still be a full time student. Ask questions the professors will help you.

You get what you put into it I love learning about business the stories, the life lessons my business law teacher was a lawyer it don't get much better.

Everyone is friendly here, the staff in each dorm, or as the Ra would say residence hall because dorms are made for sleeping and Space is meant for fun and learning.

Its all you can eat but not all the time do you want to eat it all. The food isn't amazing but its much better than jail food and with out an education you would probably end up there.

The intramural's are amazingly fun. I love playing volleyball, basketball, dodge ball, and softball. It is so cool to play a sport without the unnecessary competition.

If you want the college experience of the lifetime come here the food might not be all that but the people the experience and the time you will have here.

Your on the lake, need I say more. Swimming, sailing, rowing all sorts of fun and the view incredible kind of like a vacation.

Business Majors, Organization Communications, Science Majors even students that just want to learn.

Volleyball, Baseball, Lacrosse, and a bunch of other fun sports like soccer, and all the intramural's you can handle.

Not much greek life on campus no competitive fraternities

Always there when you need them mainly the fire alarms because of bad cooking by students in the kitchen of the dorms.

Keuka is an amazing school. Not only are we students here at Keuka friends, but we are a family. The professors here are not just professors, they are the people we look up to.

It may be expensive but apply as soon as you get the chance because the campus is beautiful and the courses are definitely worth the cost.

The classes can be difficult at times but it is good preparation for our careers.

The dorms are very comfortable and as long you get a good roommate you are in good shape.

The Terrace has great food and the Geiser has it's days. It's better to get to the Geiser while the food is fresh. Everything is homemade.

During good weather you can swim in the lake, there are daily shuttle runs into Penn Yan, and the clubs on campus are a lot of fun.

Keuka has a family weekend every September. It's great to see the way the school keeps the families involved.

Anyone looking for a good, challenging but not too challenging, education should try to get in. The school does not base acceptance on test scores unless you want them to.

The on campus clubs are a lot of fun. Up Til' Dawn is a campus club. We do fundraisers to earn money for cancer research for St. Judes and the school has a lot of educational clubs related to majors to prepare for your career.

Keuka does not have Greek Life.

I love seeing the campus safety officers. They are always busy, and do routine dorm checks each night, not individual rooms but each building.

Its not just the Academics. Learning about yourself and getting real world experience is important.

The small community atmosphere is nice, but not suited for everyone.

One can attend better private 4 year colleges for the same price as Keuka College.

Getting 'stuck' with two roommates in not necessarily a bad thing.

People that enjoy a small community.
