Review of Holy Cross College

from South Bend, IN

Describe your college in three sentences.

A small, four year, liberal arts college dedicated to the mission of the Order of the Holy Cross Brothers. The Brothers actively pursue to educate the hearts and minds of it's scholars attending both young and old. This atmosphere provides a strong foundation for a will to learn, the will of service to others, and a strong faith in God.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Holy Cross College is growing and may not have everything you wish to pursue academically at the moment. But, we are in the shadow of the University of Notre Dame and receive all the benefits of students that go to the university. Holy Cross students have the chance to be apart of many educational experiences with a big university, yet without the hassle. If you attend here, get involved in everything you can get your hands on. College is a time to learn, grow into yourself, and to have fun. These have been my best years. I do not want them to end! Also, apply for every scholarship you can!

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

In the shadow of the University of Notre Dame, campus and the South Bend area has much to offer. From discounted bowling nights, to go-carting, to Notre Dame football/basketball games, and many other student based activities, when the homework is finished, you will find that unwinding will prove to be simple.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Holy Cross College is on a tuition lock. So, if you attend, you are locked in for all four years. You get that big university feel without the hassle.
