Hope College Top Questions

Hope College is a liberal arts school nestled close to downtown Holland, Michigan. It offers a unique atmosphere because while Hope is not a religious school there is a strong faith base among the students and faculty. The classes are smaller in size, averaging about 25 students, which allows for a more personal student/professor relationship. The student life is very diverse from greek life, to young life, to intermeral sports, Hope offers it all. The diverse atmosphere and strong faith base offer a great experience for students to develop and grow, not only academically but personally and spiritually.

The kind of education that I am able to get at Hope. Because classrooms are small, professors are always willing to help inside and outside of class. I truely believe that the kind of education I can get from Hope is unlike most other schools, even other small, liberal arts colleges. Hope offers so many different educational programs that anyone can find where they belong and decide what they will be doing for the rest of their life.

The friendly atmosphere and energy that fills campus The open mindedness of the students and faculty

When my friends come to see me they find the campus very relaxing and warm, my friends attend a big 10 school and liked having other thing to do than drinking every weekend. I like my small classes and the one on one relationship with my professors. My academic advisor is great and everyone here wants you to succeed.

I brag about the beautiful campus location right next to Lake Michigan and the beach. The campus is full of trees and green grass and is very enviormentally focused.

It's a small private school, less than 4,000 people so you get to know everybody fairly quickly. By the time I was a sophomore, I hardly saw any new faces when I was walking around campus. Plus the fact that everyone is always so friendly, the entire school seems more like a big family than a big university when you are one of 10,000 other students. At my school, I'm a person and not just a number. Also, the professors live in the neighborhood and love it when you drop by their houses.

i brag about hope being so close to the beach!!! and also the great basketball program.

The people at Hope are by far the most amazing and inspiring that I have ever met. People smile when you walk by them on the sidewalk and people work to be friendly and nice when you meet them. Hope has helped me to change and grow more confident as a person and I know that is because of the people, students and faculty alike, who are willing to take an interest in someone other than themselves. People actually care at Hope. The people you meet here are the people you want to know forever.

My amazing friends and our lives studying, having fun, and learning more about ourselves through our college.

I am lucky to have been accpeted and am proud of the 4.0 I currently hold.
