Saint Joseph's College of Maine - Standish, Maine

I wish I went somewhere else. Worst three years of my life so far. Teachers don’t help with anything even if you ask. The nursing clinical instructors are some of the rudest people I’ve met. Charge way too much for the mediocre education, terrible staff, and severe lack of fun activities for students. The “community” they talk about here is a lie. When I graduate, I will never step foot on the campus again. For the rest of my life, I will live with regret for going here. Go anywhere other than here, it will save you from a miserable four years.

We are wrapping up a great run at St. Joe’s!! Our son is completing his MBA after receiving his undergrad last spring while having played for the mens soccer team throughout. The entire experience was excellent! From the quality of the education, caliber of the athletic program, friendships made, growth as a person, support of the coaches and admin staff, and last but not least the beautiful location. I would recommend St. Joe’s to any student seeking these attributes. Go Monks!

Our daughter transferred to Saint Joseph's for her sophomore year from a large university out west. She chose SJC because it offered the major she was interested in and gave her the ability to participate in a Division III sport, alpine skiing. She has had nothing but a positive experience! The academics have been a great fit for her, she has made great friends and has enjoyed the camaraderie of the ski team. The overall atmosphere of academics and athletics has exceeded our expectations. The professors are very attentive, and the ski team coaching staff has been amazing. To top it off, you can't beat the beautiful close knit campus on Sebago lake.

St. Joseph's College strikes a great balance of providing their students with a top notch education along with an outstanding athletic program. I can't say enough good things about the family orientated, student first culture the College, Athletic Department and specifically, the Women's Alpine Ski and Lacrosse team coaches provide our daughter and her teammates. We strongly recommend Saint Joseph's College to anyone looking for a great education while pursuing their passion for top notch athletics!

We have a daughter who is currently a sophomore on campus. Our son now has decided to attend St Joe's next September. Once we walked on campus, met staff and current students, both our kids decided right then that's where they would be attending. Both play LAX, and after meeting with Coach Keenan for the girls and Coach Cosentino for the boys, both our kids felt welcomed. They had found a second home to play LAX and get a great education . As parents, we love the safety the campus offers and the close knit community, so we couldn't have been more pleased when our son decided to attend also! Such a beautiful campus on the lake makes visits enjoyable every single time.

Sincerely,
Kevin and Richelle Wesley

St. Joseph's College is a hidden gem in the State of Maine. I am so grateful for my time at SJC, and for the connections I formed with the wonderfully supportive community that wraps their arms around the college, as well as the athletics programs, particularly the women's basketball program. The networking and outreach that this small college in Maine has afforded me in my career and life has made me even more grateful for my decision to attend so many years ago.

A college experience that embraces community of peers. My son is a student participating on both the alpine ski team and lacrosse team. We can’t not be more grateful for the opportunities and experiences St. Joes has provided to our entire family!

I really like that SJC has many activities for seniors! Offerings such as Silver Sneakers live, zoom, and pool groups are exercise parties with a blast of fun and camaraderie! Excellent teachers move, motivate and make us coming back for more delightful fantastic healthy fun!
