Gordon College Top Questions

Gordon is in a wealthy suburb, but just half an hour outside of Boston. Students can get the quiet campus, and still have quick access to the city. There is free salsa dancing in Boston for all Gordon students at a local club. At Gordon, EVERYONE can fit in.. we have students who are home-schooled and those that went to private, public, parochial, or Christian schools and everyone fits in and finds friends quickly.

Gordon is a non-denominational Christian liberal arts school. There is a required amount of chapel services that each student must attend and the Christian faith is woven into just about every aspect of campus life. The community amongst students is unmatched and there is usually something to do on campus that is fun and exciting.

The Gordon-in-Lynn program is very unique about my school. This program offers an oppurtunity for Gordon students to become involved in an urban community through several different organizations offered. I am involved in this at the Boys and Girls club and it has been a very rewarding experience as I have been exposed to a culture, lifestyle, community and people different from what I am accustomed to. Because of this experience, I have more of a clear picture of what I wish to pursue as a career.

Gordon is unique as opposed to the other schools that I applied to because it is closer to my home, is smaller, and has a more inviting feel on-campus. I was welcomed at Gordon in a way that I was not greeted on any other campus.
