Students identify Lafayette as an excellent fit for countless reasons. In your response, be deliberate and specific about your motivation for applying to Lafayette.
We hate Lehigh. But you really dont wanna tell your interviewers this fact. Get some Laf-Lehigh T-shirt. Trust me they re such cool stuff. The slogans are: Lehigh - because you just cant get into Lafayette, or anything like that haha. I would say it depends on classes and professors, but there are great professors and the program associated with the library in order for students to access library encyclopedia at any time during the program, presearching and researching on their topics.
The problem for me was at big schools I felt swallowed up, I felt like I was just a number, and I honestly felt like the education was not worth the price, but conversely I felt like at the smaller schools everything was very uniform. As in everyone was preppy, or everyone was a druggy, or that there was not much partying going on, or that greek life was either huge or almost nonexistent.
Lafayette gives not just a little, but a lot of everything, without making me just another number. The social life is incredibly dull and there will be no parties for you if you are not on a team, or in a social club, or in a frat or sorority. This school has a beautiful campus in a decent town Easton is certainly better now than 10 years ago and is about an hour and a half from either NY or Philly.
It offers a very good liberal arts education and has a strong engineering program. Socially, Laf is undergoing a lot of changes.
They only have 4 remaining fraternities and they are really trying to cut down on underage drinking. Current students should weigh in here, but in my opinion, less of a party school than similar liberal arts colleges such as Bucknell. As the previous poster said, social life will revolve more around clubs and activities you are involved in. I wrote this essay for the 'Why Lafayette?
Any criticism is appreciated!! I hadn't once heard the term liberal arts, until my sister applied to a small liberal arts institution in Swarthmore, PA. Following her steps, I decided to look for the same liberal arts experience in the colleges I was applying to. Lafayette wasn't the first liberal arts college I researched, but it was the school that most accurately represented the values of a liberal arts education.
I found that Lafayette would provide me with the perfect chance to explore my intense intellectual curiosity in various disciplines. I would also relish the chance to have close relationships with members of the faculty, engaging in respectful debate about the subjects that most intrigue me, perhaps with Prof.
Sikand or Prof. I wanted to attend a place where personal development is as important as intellectual growth, and Lafayette's commitment to an integral education convinced me it was the best college for me. I'd be excited to be part of a community that encourages active discussion and free exchange of ideas, because I believe this will help me grow as a critical and free-thinking individual.
I see Lafayette as a place where I can thrive-as a woman of color, an artist, and as a budding filmmaker.
