    dordt is a great college to grow in knowledge as well as faith. it is located is in a rural community. people here also love to be dutch!

    Tips for prospective students

    you will meet a lot of people in the first few weeks, and the classes will seem impossible at first but don't give up! also, it's important to have a christian perspective on everything.

    Academic Rigor

    some classes are just busy work, but there are quite a few challenging classes as well. lots of homework.

    Dorm Life

    it's alright, depends on what type of personality you have.

    Food and Dining

    the commons can be alright sometimes but most of the time people complain about it. the grille is pretty good, and we have an on-campus coffee shop run by the business club.

    What to do for fun

    it's sioux center (aka, nothing to do) so you'll have to be good at making your own fun.. which is good, too!

    Bang for the buck

    depends on which classes you take. some are totally worth your money, some not so much.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    don't date before tri-state.

    Great for these types of students

    great for those who are academic... it's a great place but you get a ton of homework. everyone here also seems to be from a dutch heritage and has gone to a crc church.

    Clubs and Activities

    we have intramurals, sports, prayer teams, bible studies, business club, and much more.

    Greek Life

    none.

    Campus Safety

    your stuff is pretty much safe, not many people lock their doors. and sioux county, while it has its flaws, is a very safe community which is great.

    Am learning a lot

    Dordt College has exceptional academics and wonderful professors. The professors challenge you and you learn important information about your major throughout your time at Dordt.

    Am enjoying being here

    The small student population is excellent for making long lasting friendships and forming community.

    Bang for the buck

    Dordt is a difficult liberal arts college for academics and has been nationally ranked by the Princeton Review. If students like to be challenged or want to continue on to graduate school Dordt is an excellent school.

    Tips for prospective students

    Make lots of friends, study, and get involved with student activities as much as possible.

    Great for these types of students
