Customer Reviews

Great Gift!

University Chic was a great read. When I graduated from college I remember receiving a college survival guide but found it to be not very helpful. University Chic really makes each "experience" real and brings up topics that most books gloss over. A must read for anyone who is getting ready for college or for anyone who would like to relive college!

Great Guide for Incoming Freshman and Undergrad Women

This is a fantastic book for any woman preparing for or already in college. The advice comes straight from the girls that are there as opposed to "experts" that may be removed from the day-to-day college lifestyle. It provides helpful advice and real-life stories about adjusting to the college experience, from dealing with roommates, to making one's own schedules, to the myriad of social activities available on campus. I highly recommend this book and enjoyed reading even as a recent college grad. I wish it was available when I was about to start school.

A must-have for high school seniors and college first years!

Every young woman about to enter college needs to get this book. The advice is extremely honest and frank. There are also a ton of fun, fast facts sprinkled throughout and the book is organized into chapters that cover all aspects of college life. The pieces come directly from women in college and I'm quite impressed by the quality of their writing. Definitely a great read and makes an awesome gift for those off to college or those who just got into college!

A Must Read!

I picked up this book as a gift, but I ended up reading it myself before passing it on to the intended recipient. --- I wish I had this book when starting college. Sometimes when you read a guidebook you expect a lot of superficial, common sense advice. This book goes beyond that - it is superbly written, and the advice is intelligent and thoughtful. It does a great job of addressing issues specifically from a girl's point of view, especially in the dating, health and sorority sections. I think the book gives an accurate picture of what it's like to be a girl in college today. Definitely worth checking out.

Wish I'd had this book!

This book is a must read for every girl graduating from high school and any young woman currently in college. It covers a wide range of topics and keeps the reader turning the pages. I'm buying several copies for graduation gifts. Wish I'd had this book when I was in school!
