The homework is difficult but compared to how my friends homework at her college is (very little and extremely easy) I am glad because I know I am getting a great education! Exploration is a big part of the learning experience here, which is very good for some people and not so good for others. You have to decide if you feel like exploring subjects, thoughts, and ideas constantly is a good thing for you.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I love the atmosphere at Gordon!! Everyone was really friendly even to the non-students. I loved that I don't really have to worry about trying to ignore inappropriate conversations or wince when I hear a swear because there is very little! If I do hear something I don't want to it is very easy to get away from. Here I am encouraged to be more accepting of peoples differences. It is a very mature and welcoming atmosphere.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Gordon is really expensive but my counselor was awesome and really wants to help me find as many scholarships as I can!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Visit the Campus!! Gordon was at one point my 4th out of 4 colleges that I wanted to go to. Then I visited and I instantly knew it was where I was supposed to start out my college career.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
People strong in their beliefs but willing to learn about others and develop social skills with other Christians. Those who want to really explore ideas and concepts that are not considered in everyday life.
