Lovely campus, even has light cleaning service in the dorm room. Everything to love except the tutition and board and very little money on the table. But welcome to private college in the USA!

The university has grown incredibly and continues to enjoy a good reputation, especially for graduate school placement. The campus is well maintained.

I was surprised to see that Scranton was ranked #2 with "Most friendliest students" in 2012. I should not be surprised as there are no fraternities or sororities on campus. Good looking campus. The student body and campus is growing in size, especially the past few years.

Hey this is a great school. They make Scranton look good! The kids are real nice. Lots of progams for the local folks; (us). The music department doesn't exist. Yet, Cheryl Boga bring in top names from NY and blends them with students, faculty, and others to produce a fantastic selection of venues through the year, and it's FREE.

Da U is a great school and campus visits are always fun. It is a special place in a city often overlooked or joked about, yet one that embraces so much of what made America great.

"The U" (or "Da U" as locals call it) iPad really come a long way thanks to various people and organizations in the area-especially for Mr. DeNaples generosity.

We came to Scranton to visit the University and were impressed by the fit of a bucolic campus in an urban setting. The campus is walking distance to the city center. Folks were helpful.
