A great foundation for the future
IntroductionI chose Lehigh because of its great reputation for both academia and social life. It was amazing to be surrounded by such intelligent classmates that also knew how to let loose at the end of the day. The Engineering and Science programs are incredible. The Business program is making progress, but still has a ways to go.
Campus Life and Social LifeThere is always something to do at Lehigh! While the recent focus has been on non-alcohol events, the school is still known for its strong Greek system and cheap beer. Lehigh students know how party!
AcademicsProfessors are extremely approachable and the tops in their fields. Mountain campus offers a unique opportunity to perform research in a setting outside of the class room or your basic labs. Of course, the school is known for engineering. Students that are looking for a challenging academic experience should choose these fields.
Student BodyThe typical student body is from PA/NY/NJ, well to do, and kinda preppy. Most join the Greek system and/or sports.
In Closing...Attending Lehigh has helped me tremendously in my career. While I obtained a post graduate degree at a highly ranked institution, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that my Lehigh degree opened more doors. The administration is amazing and continues to help alumni after graduation. I wouldn't trade my experience there for anything!
