Calvin College is challenging and rigorous. I could not be more pleased with my first year here and I am excited to continue in the fall. Great community, great academics, and great living.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Don't let the cost freak you out - It will be worth it and you will get lots of help. Remember that this is the gateway to your future and Calvin is an excellent choice to excel and be successful.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Christian school setting with close to Ivy League academics.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
My roommate is from New Jersey and we went potluck style for the first year. We LOVED it and are rooming together again next year. The community is excellent and all kinds of floor events are planned throughout the campus.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
2 dining halls - constant competition. Will you be a Commons or a Knollcrest fan??
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Grand Rapids is AWESOME! Home of ArtPrize, too many local restaurants to count, dates along the river, and Eastown. It is rated one of the best places to live in America.
