学生评论：
- There are a wide variety of academics offered here. There's liberal arts and there's your Christian opportunities too. The professors are all great and there's a lot of places to study and get together with groups and help sessions are every week. It's very nice.
- The music department at Houghton is spectacular. The professors are all so willing to help you improve in your skills and while it is a heavy workload, it's enjoyable and you have so many opportunities when you leave.
- the programs are very good and advanced and the teachers expect hard work from their students but are not unreasonable and are very willing to help if they can. Good academics overall, lots of resources.
- Most of the professors are very accommodating and understanding. Unique teaching styles help in retaining information and the typical small class size allows for more interaction.
- Houghton is pretty focused on academics. The acceptance level seems to be pretty low, but the classes and professors are tough. Houghton also goes by a more strict grading scale...campus wide an A is a 96, and an A- is a 93.
- Strenuous, but the professors are more than willing to help you if needed. They offer a wide selection of majors for a small private school.
- Academics are rigorous but the professors are helpful and work with you to prepare you for the future outside of the classroom.
- The registration process here at Houghton was so easy. The website was simple and easy to navigate, so registering for my classes this semester was a piece of cake.
- Houghton College is a very academic school, so if you are the type of student that is looking for a college where you can get a good grade with little effort, this is not the school for you. I am a Biology/Physical Therapy major and I have to put a lot of effort into studying for my science and math classes as well as all the others. Houghton makes a point of really preparing you for your career and for entering the world as an adult, and I value that. Sure, it's tough, but I know that when I get an A in a class, I know that I have put in my best and I have a firm grasp on the material I learned.
- I am studying music at Houghton college, and they way the professors teach us makes it intersting and worth listening. The homework load can be a bit much, but practicing everyday can do that so you can get stronger and better with your singing, or playing in some cases. The teachers are very informative and can answer most any questions you have, and they say you will be able to land a job once you graduate.*(5)
