Describe your college in three sentences.

Hofstra is a great college, with an at home feel that will increase your chance of success. The campus is clean, the professors helpful, and the food is good! There is no other college I would have rather attended.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Make sure you are financially equipped to attend this school, because it is pricey. However, it is worth it!

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

It is comparable to my high school classes...I cannot decide if that says little about Hofstra's academics or a lot about my high school's academics.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

The dorms are awesome. The RA's are always helpful. The rooms are clean and most of them have been redone over the past year.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Great! They offer gluten free food which is awesome for a lot of people. I am a Nutrition major, so for me to say that they have healthy food means a lot!

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

The gym is fabulous. There are a variety of intramural sports. A very quick train ride to New York City, and often Hofstra offers free trips to students.
