What
current Schreiner parents say about the Schreiner
experience... |

"Ryan
is really enjoying his freshman year at Schreiner.
Shortly after his initial tour of Schreiner during his
junior year of high school, Ryan knew that Schreiner was
a perfect fit for him. The visibility and access to
professors, tutors, deans, advisors, and learning
support are truly unique attributes of Schreiner
University. Ryan has particularly benefited from the
small classroom environment and access to all the
support he needs to be successful while at Schreiner and
in the career of his choice."

"Schreiner University has been the perfect place for our
daughter. Our daughter is significantly learning
different. Out of high school, she initially attended
Baylor University on an academic scholarship. While she
passed all of her classes, the learning environment was
frustrating. The classes were very large; many were
taught by graduate assistants; her interface with her
instructors was mostly impersonal. She found Baylor's
learning-different program lacking. Cara is now a 1st
semester Junior and has been here at Schreiner since the
second semester of her freshman year. Schreiner has been
a wonderful setting for our daughter. From the start,
all of her classes have been relatively small. All her
professors have been PhDs. Schreiner's parallel
learning-different support program has been incredible,
second-to-none."

"College 'move in' day arrived and our family began the
drive to Kerrville. The car was filled with boxes and my
eyes were filled with tears. Leaving your child in the
hands of strangers creates a sense of fear and
apprehension. I tried to hold my composure as we started
to unpack the car. Immediately, we were greeted by his
baseball coach who announced he had been waiting to
finally meet Bill. I knew from that very moment we were
simply handing him off to another welcoming family. As
we pulled out of the parking lot, my eyes were still
filled with tears but they were tears of joy. The
administration, teachers, and students at Schreiner
University have embraced our son and truly given him a
home away from home."

"Our family would
like to thank you for offering our son, Tim the
opportunity to participate in the Best of Italy trip
with S.U. He called us a few days into the
trip to let us know
that he was having a wonderful time and that and he was
so excited to be in Italy. When the group had a delay in
Denver on Saturday, as you returned, we spoke about his
travels and again I could sense how awesome and
meaningful the trip had been to him. We feel that
offering students the opportunity to apply what they
have learned in the classroom and then letting them
experience first hand what they learned makes for a well
rounded individual. I wrote our family and
shared some information about the places that he
visited and how the citizens of Italy differed
from the citizens of the U.S. The family
was pleased to hear that he had a great time,
that he had the opportunity to travel abroad and
was able learn more about our world. If our
family can ever be of service to you please do
not hesitate to call or email us." |

"As parents, we
struggle to provide the best possible foundation and
opportunities for our beloved children. Upon graduating
from HS, Larry III, possessed much raw talent &
high caliber qualities. He was fundamentally prepared
for college but we feared he may very well get
"swallowed-up" at a large, name-brand state school
(he agrees). At Schreiner, he is experiencing academic
rigor (biology), gleeful choir, and first-rate
athletics, as well as being prepared for a bright future
in the real world...in a highly supportive Hill Country
collegiate environment. What more could a student
possibly want? He's extremely happy and we're
exceptionally proud. Make Schreiner University your
first choice!"

"The
small student body and the faculty-to-student ratio
has been the best experience for our daughter,
Elaine. It allows all students the opportunity to
grow both academically and socially. College is not
just about academic education but also learning to
balance work, community and family. Schreiner helps
students to learn this balance, teaching them the
skills to be productive adult citizens of their
future communities. Elaine has really enjoyed
Schreiner and for the first time is able to be
really involved."

"As a Chicago mom who
didn't want her son to go to school too far away from
home, I didn't know much about Schreiner University
except that Texas was a long, long way from Illinois.
What I have learned in the last two years is that
Schreiner is a wonderful, welcoming and enriching place
for our son, Josh. And it's a school that finds a
way to warmly embrace not just its students but their
families as well. We are huge Schreiner fans."

"Tution at Schreiner is a small price to pay
when I see how
my daughter
Kim has
grown, matured,
and the academic success she has achieved."

"My daughter has had a
wonderful experience at Schreiner. As a Presbyterian
minister, I am particularly pleased with the campus
ministry program. They are very involved and help the
students stay focused spiritually as well as
academically. One of the big reasons my daughter was
able to attend Schreiner was because of the availability
of a wide variety of scholarships from fine arts to
academics. The financial aid department has been very
helpful, so much so that my son, a High School Senior,
is now considering Schreiner. " THE REV. KENNETH LANE,
Mexia, TX |
