I'm trying to get a feel for the community at Colgate University. Does anyone know how big the student population is? I'm curious about whether it's more of a tight-knit college experience or something more expansive.
As of the latest data, the total student population at Colgate University is around 2,900 students, of which nearly all are undergraduates. This size typically provides students with a tight-knit community experience while still offering a comprehensive range of student activities and resources. There are advantages to attending a school of this size. For example, the opportunities for personal interaction with faculty are often greater than they would be at a large university. On the other hand, the variety of classes and programs offered may be somewhat less than at larger institutions. So if you're someone who values community and personal connections, Colgate could be a great fit for you.
