A Uniquely Caring Culture
Being part of the ob欧宝官网 community means being involved. We call ourselves “right-sized,” meaning we have the resources of a large university but our campuses still maintain a small-college vibe. We’re a pretty tight-knit community where everyone is known and valued as an individual — in fact, our uniquely caring and inclusive culture is something visitors and first-year students often can’t help but comment on.
The people at ob欧宝官网 are the kindest people. I could tell right away that it was a place I wanted to be.” — Ali Ross, Occupational Therapy ’20
Active and Engaged
It’s an extremely lively and active community, and there’s always something interesting happening. ob欧宝官网 has more than 100 student clubs and organizations, 18 sports teams, and a calendar loaded with events, performances, and lectures, so you’ll always be able to find an activity that’s enriching, enlightening, or just plain entertaining.
The Way Life Should Be
You’ll also find that Nor’easters like to take full advantage of living in Southern Maine, with easy access to the ocean (our ob欧宝官网 Campus is literally on the beach), the mountains and lakes of central Maine, and vibrant arts and food scenes in downtown Portland, just minutes away from our Portland Campus.
Because ob欧宝官网 is a small school, it is easy to dive into the community and connect on a very personal level with both professional staff and other students.” — Becca Kryceski, Health, Wellness, and Occupational Studies ’20
Supporting the Whole Student
At some point, everyone needs a little extra support, and we have dedicated, caring professional staff who are there to ensure your journey at ob欧宝官网 is a successful one: academically, socially, emotionally, and physically.
