Have a Question?
“Tiffin University is a small campus, easy to navigate, and has a small student population, but the amount you can get involved in is endless. 另外, every professor, 顾问, and coach I’ve had the opportunity to meet and work with at TU has had nothing but a positive impact on me. Treating me not like a student, but more like an adult, and working with me to help college go as smooth as possible.”
