At McDaniel College, are there any research projects that are open to freshmen?
McDaniel College
Hi Samson, Usually, most research opportunities happen during the summer time. So as a freshman, you would most likely complete research the summer before sophomore year. For more information about research, there is a link below. https://www.mcdaniel.edu/academics/special-academic-opportunities/undergraduate-research Best, Chad

WHAT I LIKED

McDaniel College is a wonderful community of people always willing to lift each other up. I have enjoyed all of the professors and students I have interacted with. I also love the small class sizes and the many course options offered.

WHAT I didn’t LIKE

Be aware that there is only one dining hall as well as a couple other food options like the convenience store and the Pub.

WHAT I LIKED

I love my professor and our small class sizes my biggest class was my anatomy lecture which had 40 people in it. Professors are also willing to help you and there are so many ways to get involved on campus. Even if you don't want to get involved there are still lots of things to do on campus there are events going on most nights of the week just to build community and get students to have fun and relax.

WHAT I didn’t LIKE

You should be aware that since class sizes are small you have to be on top of things to get into the classes you want to otherwise you run the risk of not getting into the class you need.
