Student Reviews

Do not go to Bard if you are looking for a typical college experience. Bard's academics and professors are amazing; the class size is small, everyone has a relationship with their professors, and the classes offered are riveting and exciting. Other than that, everything about Bard is trash. The dorms are constantly disgusting, there are virtually no clubs, the food is inedible, and the students are rich social justice warriors who pretend that they can only afford Good Will in order to be cool. It's very hard to fit in if you;re not exactly like every other person there.
I think Bard offers an excellent academic environment. It's secluded. Some people are uncomfortable by that. It's a beautiful campus, right by that Catskills in upstate NY. If students was to go to Manhattan they can easily catch the school shuttle or grab a train. However, it is my experience that I went to university to study and work, not to be on vacation. I enjoy the nature and find Bard to be a good environment for school. The professors are all brilliant and they are all focused on their students. Classes are small which is amazing.
I adore this place. An amazing education and experience. Inspiringly idealistic, and a stunning campus. The student body is increasingly diverse, and for all the cliches, really wonderful people, if slightly morally pliant. Professors are brilliant.
