Why I chose Mount Holyoke. For an exceptional experience. Students enjoying a beautiful day on Skinner Green. Students celebrate Convocation each fall. Community life My first year, I was assigned two roommates, which I initially felt squeamish about.

The Jhumka dance team on Pangy Day. She likes the familial environment of having 2, sisters. She reinvigorated the debate team and has been attending tournaments around the East Coast.

The admissions office uses several criteria for selection. The short answer questions are very important. They look for staying power, mastery of material, leadership and commitment. All students are rated in the process. Academic excellence and quality remains the top priority. Admit all students rated 1-X for top of academic pool.

Then they turn to institutional goals and priorities. Do meet full demonstrated need, but with combination of loans and grants. In , Mary Lyon did the unthinkable. Radical moves for a woman wearing a bonnet. In doing so, she forever changed the landscape of higher education — not just for women in South Hadley, Massachusetts, but for women around the world.

She built a place where women could develop their intellects, hone the power of their voices and cultivate courage. These days, change is all around us, happening at a pace too fast to measure.

Her vision still drives Mount Holyoke. You will. Unlike Smith, which was my other top choice, we're removed enough so that the surrounding area isn't a distraction, but we're also close enough that it's only a free bus ride away. Our campus is so stunning and it really seems like it was designed with learning in mind.

Everyone has a lot of class pride and cares about the college. Most courses are seminar-style and professors actually encourage you to take risks and mess up a little because you learn better that way. The grading definitely isn't "easy," but a lot less emphasis is put on testing and scores.

Since our courses are so ridiculously small -- my largest class this semester is 12 students -- they really get to know you and what you've been learning and doing, rather than just looking at the grades they've assigned you and averaging them out. We have student orgs and everyone's involved with at least one. They help you learn better by keeping you more engaged. The thinking is that, by doing that, you'll get better in your weak areas more naturally, and it definitely seems to be true.

Her safety school is Mount Holyoke. She was very upset about going to Mount Holyoke. Her complain was MHC is an all female college and will lack of regular college life with boys. Also she said the campus was in the middle of nowhere will make her sick.

I don't know what to say. It is connected by bus with 4 other colleges : Amherst, Hampshire and the University of Massachusetts--there are also men at all these schools and activities you can participate in.

Boston is two hours away by bus or car it is not hard to find a lift and you can easily go for a day in a "big city". There is a January term which you can spend off campus and, of course, 3 months in the summer when it is possible to do an internship in Boston, New York or elsewhere. Another option to make life more exciting is to spend your junior year abroad that's what I did!
