This review is from: Elon University: Off the Record (College Prowler) (College Prowler: Elon University Off the Record) (Paperback)
As the author for this book, I feel it important for me to tell you why I feel every high schooler or student looking to transfer to Elon should have this book. I am currently a student at Elon who really wanted to get others as excited about Elon as I am. After doing much research by looking up facts on our homepage, interviews with the Dean of Admissions and getting other information from our Public Relations director, surveying over 200 students, and just giving my personal account, I feel that this book gives you the most honest idea of what it is like to attend this great school. A lot of books are just going to tell you what you want and glaze over the facts such as drugs on campus, the girl to guy ratio, or even campus security. This guidebook gives you all that so you can make an educated decision on whether or not this is the place for you. Furthermore, there's tips on the best restaurants, tradtions, best places to study, and facts and figures about admission into this university. Buy one today, it's full of quotes and information you'll be glad to know!

pleased customer,
This review is from: Elon University: Off the Record (College Prowler) (College Prowler: Elon University Off the Record) (Paperback)
I feel like I got more information about Elon University through this guidebook than I did going to Elon. The book gives you information about clubs Elon had to offer, traditions within the school's name, the emphasis put on greek life, all the restaurants and bars within the area, where the best and worst places to live are, and so much more! I feel like I will be one of the most informed freshman entering into Elon University, and since reading the guide, am more confident about my decision :-)
