UD is a great mid-sized school. With nearly 16,000 undergrads, it's not a small school, but it's also not overwhelmingly large like Penn State. UD has a beautiful campus that features a vibrant main street running directly through it. In my opinion, Newark, Del, is your textbook definition of a college town. Football games are the best example of students showing off their school pride. Everybody always wears their blue and gold. Racial tensions always seem to be a big issue, mainly because of the state's history as well as the university's relatively small black population.
STEVE Alum
校友Steve:UD是一所很好的中型学校,有着将近16,000名本科生,它并不算是一所小的学校。但它也并不像Penn State那样庞大。UD有一个美丽的校园,其特征是由一条充满朝气的主干道直接贯穿学校。在我看来,德拉华州的Newark市是教科书式的大学城。橄榄球比赛是展示学生学校荣誉感最好的例子。每一个人都穿成蓝色和金色。种族矛盾似乎一直是一个大的问题,主要是因为这个州的历史,还有学校相对较小的黑人比例。
Overall, I absolutely loved UD. I miss it so much-my friends, the college lifestyle, some professors, my apartment, my roommate, sorority involvement, and I miss everything about Main Street. UD is a great school-it's a beautiful campus, has a good reputation, plenty of resources for students. I loved the size of the school-always new people to meet but you always had smaller groups of friends amongst 17,000+ students. When I look back on my college experience as a whole, I can't identify anything missing from UD. I honestly feel that I couldn't have made a better choice and I really miss being there!
MELANIE Alum
校友Melanie:总的来说,我绝对爱死UD。我十分的想念它—我的朋友,学校生活方式,某些教授,我的宿舍,我的宿友,女子联谊会的活动。我怀念所有关于Main Street的东西。UD是一所极好的学校—它拥有美丽的校园,很高的声誉,为学生提供很多资源。我喜欢学校的规模—你总会遇到新的面孔,但你总能在17,000+的学生当中找到属于自己的群体。当我整体地回顾大学生涯,我发现在UD的大学生涯十分圆满。我确实觉得不会有一个比UD更好的选择。而且我真的很怀念在那里的时光。
The best thing about UD is the location. I love how I can be home in an hour. It's also only a few hours away from Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York. I think the size is just right. I graduated with 750 other seniors, so I was used to large classes and many students. I also came from the suburbs so I was used to being in a town. (Actually, I think Newark is smaller than my hometown.) I spend most of my time in my apartment and the library. When I was in the dorms, though, I spent some time studying on The Green. It's really beautiful during the Spring. It is definitely a college town. On the weekends on Main Street, you'll see all the 21-year-olds and older going to the bars. I think UD's administration is doing an okay job. I don't really have any complaints.
ELENA Senior
大四学生Elena:UD最大的优势在于地理位置。我很喜欢能在一个小时之内到家。这里距离Washington, D.C.,Baltimore,Philadelphia 和New York也只有几个小时的车程。我认为学校的规模刚刚好。我和另外750名学生一起毕业,所以我习惯了大班课程和有很多同学。我来自城郊地区,所以我习惯住在城镇(事实上,我认为Newark比我的家乡更小。)我在宿舍和图书馆度过了大部分的时间。但我在宿舍的时候,我会花一些时间去研究附近的森林(The Green)。在春天的时候,这里会变得非常的漂亮。Newark很明显是一座大学城。周末在Main Street上,你会看到所有21岁以上的青年去酒吧。我认为UD的校园管理干得还不错。我真的没有什么不满。
