Hood College Top Questions

What kind of person should attend Hood College?

Nicole

An individual who enjoys working one-on-one with their peers and professors, who is dedicated to discussion in class, enjoys a small campus and class size, wants to learn in an environment that offers a balanced exchange of urban and suburban experiences (Frederick City and an hour from D.C. and Baltimore, but on the other hand you have the countryside in Thurmont and wildlife of the Catoctin Mountains/Cunningham Falls), and ultimately desires a private institution at a public university price.

If you're a big drinker or partier, Hood is definitely not for you. There are no fraternities or sororities here. Other than that, Hood is really for anyone who wants to broaden their education with a liberal arts degree. There's something for everyone here, be it music or athletics or theater, and there are so many clubs and organizations dedicated to helping the greater community.

Jessie

A liberal, open-minded, perhaps artistic, person. Though since most other people are just as open minded, it doesn't really matter, as long as you don't infringe on others.

Megan

It's a good school for anyone willing to get a good education.
