Class Sizes

Class sizes likely stayed the same for you through high school. You'll find that college is much different. Some of the largest universities have classes that can seat hundreds of students in giant lecture halls. Conversely, as they progress and their focus narrows, higher-level courses can sometimes have just a handful of students.

Southeastern has an average student-to-faculty ratio of 27:1. The typical school is 14:1. While this ratio is important, what’s more important is how big a typical class is.
