Do not attend this school. Academically, it's completely fine. Living on campus is completely absurd. Here's a list: - You pay extremely high costs for living in archaic dorms, which often have issues with air conditioning and water quality. - You pay for overpriced meals that will either give you the runs, or is too gross to eat. - You pay for an administration that pretends to care about you, but once you attend are obviously just trying to make money. - You pay to be under strict student rules, which upon breaking results in pricey fines (Unless you're an athlete, then you just get away with anything) - You are required to go to a set number of chapels each semester, and are subject to fines ($100 per chapel) if you do not attend enough. - COVID policies that require students who are sick to quarantine inside dorms without air conditioning, and be treated like prisoners and erased from the world as though being hidden, while mask wearing is "required" even though there's nobody enforcing it. -
I love it here at Huntington. The atmosphere is fantastic and I love how close everyone is in the dorms. Although the food isn't always the best, it builds character and makes you appreciate your moms cooking when you go home! I highly encourage anyone looking for a small, liberal arts college to look into coming here!
Overall. academically Huntington University is a fantastic institution with a solid group of knowledgeable and engaging professors that are excellent at helping you achieve your goals for the future. However, where i feel it falls short is with the community and overall college experience. The rules and expectations can feel extremely constricting, the students and some faculty leaders can feel very judgmental, and i do not believe that students are not give the freedom to explore their identity if it doesn't align with the specific old school religious viewpoint of the board members and upper level staff.
I loved Huntington University. The academics were hard, but you're there to learn and the professors are almost always available. They also provide tutors for most classes. The food wasn't super awesome when I was there, but I've heard they've made some positive changes since then

I wish I would have known how much work is required to apply for scholarships.
Huntington is actually a Christian university and the faculty and staff really strive to create a Chris-centered campus.They don't always achieve it but it is nice to have professors and admins who really want to show how God is working on campus.
Any type of person.
Expensive, nickle-and-diming leaders who want you to think they care about you and your education, but really only care about their name and putting money in the bank.
Unfortunately many of the students in my school are fairly immature. What I mean by this is that they have been pampered by parents for so long and so much that they have a large sense of self-entitlement and very little in the way of independent thinking. However, most of them, to an extent, are very nice, social, and do put some level of work into the classes that they care about. They are very volunteer-centric. They tend to complain alot about workloads and professors. When in classes that they like, they tend to focus and do well.
Huntington University is know for the awesome campus community and great relationships formed between staff and students that lasts a lifetime.
I enjoy the fact that, though there is an unfortunately high rate of high school mentality, there are more mature individuals who actually want to learn on this campus. I also love the professors, because a good number of them are very enthusiastic about what they teach, and they really do want the students to learn and succeed. I also like that volunteering is made very easy on this campus. The dorms are pretty nice, which is always a plus, and we have pretty good internet access, which is obviously a must for many students.
The worst thing currently is the lack of students who are willing to accept more diversity.
I really feel that anyone can come here and fit in. There is a friend here for everyone., I really feel that way. The school makes it easy to make friends and fit in. People of all different personalities come here and love it.
There is still some closed-minded racism that is prevelant on campus.
The professor/student relationships. Our professors to a great job of being approachable and friendly toward their students.
Most people tell you that college takes a lot of work, and its true to some extent. I think that at HU, the amount of work you do depends on what you major in. If your a history major, you'll be in the library 24/7. If you're an art major, you'll be in the studios a lot. The professors are incredible. They bend over backwards to help you, and if you can't meet them during office hours, they'll arrange for a time that works for you.
The Student Senate and Student Activities Board are excellent. They are constantly coming up with events for students to take part in. This is good, considering that there isn't much to do in Huntington. The social life is great too. If there's no event going on, everyone just hangs out on campus and chills together. Open dorm nights are on the weekends, which allows for guys and girls to visit eachother's dorms.
Students complain most about the rules of the community life agreement and the terrible food service.
Huntington University is a small Christian college in the small town of Huntington, IN. If you're looking for a big party scene, this is not that kind of college. If you want something exciting to do, drive up to Fort Wayne 30 minutes north. You can walk from one side of campus the other in less than 10 minutes. HU is big enough that you don't know everyone, but small enough that your proffs know who are. The location took some getting used to. I'm from the east coast, so i'm used to having an ocean nearby, as well as lush, rolling green hills. Huntington and the surrounding areas are flat farmland; but again, it's simply different from what i'm used to.
