I attend the Torrey Honors Institute, a four-year program of reading and discussing the classics. It is a grounding in America's culture and thought and a means of discussing the good, the true, and the beautiful.
All classes are taught by professionals in their fields, yet they care about the students and are always willing to spend time with us.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I get homesick being three thousand miles from home, but not as much as you might think. The other students are almost universally friendly and willing to hang out and do favors.
The cafeteria is cheap, filling, and delicious.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Biola is very expensive. However, the quality of education is good and the community is wonderful. Get scholarships, get financial aid, but don't be afraid to go.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Biola has said that they'll never turn away a student who fits the basic qualifications (one is that the student be a Christian) and genuinely wants to go. So apply!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Those who want to be stretched mentally and relationally and who want to have an impact on the world.
Not great for those who are being made to attend school and would rather party.
