Descrierea universitatii (pe baza site-ului oficial)
Founded in 1844, Hillsdale College is an independent, coeducational, residential, liberal arts college with a student body of about 1,300. Its four-year curriculum leads to the bachelor of arts or bachelor of science degree, and it is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools.
Hillsdale’s educational mission rests upon two principles: academic excellence and institutional independence. The College does not accept federal or state taxpayer subsidies for any of its operations.
Located in rural southern Michigan, the nearly 200-acre Hillsdale campus includes both modern and historic buildings. Excellent facilities include comfortable residence halls, subject-specific computer labs, a state-of-the-art health education and sports complex, Michael Alex Mossey Library with its Leighton-Taylor Wing, the Sage Center for the Arts, the Herbert Henry Dow Science Building, Howard Music Hall and two new classroom buildings—Kendall Hall and Lane Hall. Adjacent to the campus is the model primary and secondary school, Hillsdale Academy, whose comprehensive Reference Guide is used in hundreds of schools throughout the country.
An ideal student-to-faculty ratio of 10-to-1, rigorous academics, intramural sports, national fraternity and sorority houses and widespread community volunteerism nurture intellectual, physical, social and personal growth.

Financial aid:
To supplement your family’s contribution and make your private education affordable, Hillsdale College offers scholarships to students based on academic performance, extracurricular involvement, athletic ability (as a NCAA Division II school) and fine arts talents. In addition to performance-based scholarships, Hillsdale also offers need-based scholarships, grants and low-interest loans. Because Hillsdale College chooses to remain completely financially independent, they allocate over $14,000,000 to financial aid, resulting in an average aid package of nearly $12,000 per student. |
