This school is a joke. Unless you want to get babied and treated like a fourth grader I suggest you don't come here. Classes are ridiculously easy and staff (especially academic services) are extremely hard to deal with. The cornerstone system of requirements are a waste of time and money. If you want to get a real education that is well worth your money DO NOT come here. Haven't learned a thing all year.

Rose

It's a beautiful school and there is always something going on. We are very welcoming and accepting of everyone, and there are plenty of activities and clubs to be a part of and help you feel adjusted and fitting in. Plus, the academics are great! The classroom sizes are around 35 students at the most and all of the professors are there to help you be the best student you can be!

Kendra

I love this school! There is no college out there that could be a better fit for me. Classes are small, so professors actually get to know your name. Everyone is very friendly, nice, and willing to help whenever needed. The campus is beautiful and the perfect size. The perfect blend of academics, extracurriculars, and community service. I highly recommend this scholarship!

Mackenzie

I absolutely love it here. The professores are approachable and the class size of around 20 students is ideal. The campus itself is absolutely breathtaking and I love watching the sunset everynight as I walk back to my dorm. Stonehill is a great college with an amazing academic program that will help you be successful throughout your college years and beyond!

  7. What's unique about your campus?

    At Stonehill, I believe the best things are the dorms along with an excellent curriculum to allow the students to grow academically and morally. The dorm rooms are, in my opinion, above average in size and well kept by staff, which I believe keeps the students happier. Since Stonehill is a medium sized school, you easily grow a relationship with your professors. I for one have grown a strong relationship with mine, which has allowed me to thrive academically and morally. The workload is a lot to handle sometimes but with dedication it is always possible.

  21. What are the academics like at your school?

    Stonehill's academics are challenging, and prepare you for the "real world". We have small class sizes, with professors who take the time to get to know their students. It is not unusual to have dinner with a professor, or to spend an hour in a professor's office just chatting. There are many opportunities for students to work alongside professors, and to partake in projects and experiences in their academic discipline. As an education and psychology double major, I have spent many semester hours in classrooms and in practicum settings. These experiences have allowed me to apply the things I have learned in the classroom to real life situations.
