Loren Pope, author of "Colleges That Change Lives," says it best: McDaniel's 1,600 undergraduates are nice, earnest, and quietly self-assured. (More about what the experts say...) They’re also outgoing, engaging, and fun. You’ll notice their ease and friendliness right away when you visit campus. (And you’ll notice it again when you ask a student questions via email.)

Here are some details about our students:

• 90 percent live on campus
  
• 25 percent participate in Division III athletics
  
• 16 percent participate in Greek life

Among our undergraduates, biology, business administration, communication and sociology are traditionally the most popular majors.
