A poor, tiny excuse for a college. With a student size of only 1,600 students, this joke of a 4-year school lacks any semblance of a proper college experience. Situated in the affluent suburb of Lake Forest, students are forced to live in outdated dorms and eat from a single centralized dining hall on an often-lifeless campus.
You better hope that you like the friends you make, because you're stuck with them. Greek life is abysmally tiny, while the rest of the student population devolves into social cliques like Student Athletes, Nerds, and International Students. One common type is spoiled kids with chips on their shoulders.
Even if the students were friendly to each other, there's no place to socialize since campus security shuts down all parties almost instantly. All other social events are usually a total disappointment, since the fascistic administration snuffed out all enjoyable things. Chicago is too far to get there in reasonable time either.
School spirit maintains an all-time low since the school is a pathetic D3 and has no traditions. Many students travel to other colleges to have fun, so keep Northwestern's tailgating in mind if you make the horrendous mistake of choosing LFC as your school.
Academics are as good as any state school but lacks variety of majors and programs. However, not every other college charges $40,000 per year for tuition.
LFC is a great place for those who like asking “What could have been?". Stay away from this scam of a college.

Forester: "No, it's in Illinois"
Job Recruiter: 'Never heard of it, I'll have to look it up one day"
Forester: *Thinks about $40,000/year debt and regrets not attending a big state school*
