Professors care and want you to succeed. They challenge you, tasks are easy, but they also want to give you the tools to succeed, and excel at it. Some of the professors you connect with will get to know you at a personal level. In the classroom you are taught the material in a more realistic and world setting. You are also taught spiritually and through your faith. Calvin is a Liberal Arts College so you are allowed (and required) to complete various Core classes to be more well rounded.

Read MoreCalvin was fairly strict with its rules, but this is good if you are looking for structure and positive community. By far the best part of Calvin is its academics- I had knowledgeable, personable professors who encouraged me and prepared me well for graduate school. I was very close to my History professors and won the departmental award upon graduation.

Read MoreCalvin College is a private college and what you would imagine it to be is mostly what you get. The academics of the school are at a good level, but you research what department you are going in to, just in case you are going in to art... The atmosphere and students there are absolutely amazing, and I have never doubted that this college was the right choice for me.
