I think what people assume to be a bad thing about Stonehill College is that it is a Catholic school. People might tend to think that because of its Catholic affiliation that school strictly follows the Catholic Church. However, I've met so many people of different religious backgrounds, and none of them feel excluded due to the fact that Stonehill is a Catholic institution. Stonehill is actually very accepting and welcoming of all religions. It's a very inclusive community.

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.

Read all 1 answers 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.
