" Acadia is a great school with professors that actually care and a friendly, supportive community. Such a small-town gem. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a high-quality, personable undergraduate experience. "

" Acadia's a really good small uni. So far I've had fantastic experiences with most of my profs and the workload can be difficult but manageable. The campus is also beautiful and lovely to walk up and down whenever you get the chance. However, admin, especially in the psych department can be difficult to get hold of sometimes. Class distribution can also be a bit difficult if you're in one of the bigger fields (like psych). I was put on the waiting list for classes that were mandatory for graduating, so that was really stressful. I managed to make it into those classes, but it was still scary thinking that I'd have to get in on these classes late. Overall, a good school though! "

" Great school!! I highly recommend Acadia to anyone! It’s a beautiful campus, friendly staff and faculty. Truly feels like home. Lots of residence available. Wolfville is an awesome town as well. The psychology program there is great as well, had both and arts stream and a science stream. "

" It's an amazing university that's very close knit to the community and the beautiful town of Wolfville. The class sizes are small enough that you really get to know your professors and they get to know you as well. "

" A great university for people who want to go somewhere small. Small class sizes mean you usually get to know your professors on a first-name basis. Although you can only finish the first two years of an engineering degree here, the program leads directly into Dalhousie and the engineering classes here are excellent. "
