Regret that I chose to go here. The tuition is very high, yet the school doesn't offer much at all. The facilities are old and low budget. Sports teams, clubs, and school events are lousy. Few classes are offered- some required courses are only offered once every other year. The students are very spoiled, snobby, and unkind.
Overall, I really enjoyed the program at Seattle Pacific University. The Music department was a friendly and welcoming place, and I really enjoyed the variety of options for choirs and ensembles to get a lot of experience performing. A particularly sunny spot for me was the Percussion Ensemble- led by the fantastic Dan Adams. Getting to travel with these musicians and bonding together was a cherished part of my education, and with it I gained lifelong friends.
