    Am learning a lot

    Being at a Christian Liberal Arts school allows me to explore a wide variety of issues regarding faith and practice, while integrating course material in daily life.
    Am enjoying being here

    The atmosphere at Gordon is totally unique! I'm always encouraged to keep learning and growing in my studies and my faith.
    Bang for the buck

    It's expensive, but scholarships are available, and if you're committed, Gordon will find away. There's a wide variety of opportunities beyond classes.
    Tips for prospective students

    Search for that scholarship money, if you can apply to be an A.J. Gordon Honors Scholar, do it. It's a great honors program, but it requires some commitment.
    Great for these types of students

    Students looking to explore issues of faith related to their studies, students ready to be stretched and challenged in their faith.

    Am learning a lot

    I'm constantly challenged here by my teachers and classmates. Even if you're in a lecture class you will be blown away by how smart your teachers are. You just know you're getting a quality education.
    Am enjoying being here

    Everyone is so nice and caring here, sometimes I think it depends on where you live because the community is better for freshman especially, in the hud dorms. For some the first semester might be difficult but if you stick it out it gets better.
    Bang for the buck

    Gordon is really expensive but then again so is pretty much every private college in the United States. Gordon does realize that, and you can always go to the financial office if you think you're struggling, they're really nice there and will help you out.
    Tips for prospective students

    If you still have some time left get involved in community service, because Gordon really looks for students who are willing to be leaders in those areas. If it's possibly try to get you're grades up also, or you could miss out on some really good scholarships from Gordon.
    Great for these types of students

    Students who want to strengthen their walk with God.

    Am learning a lot

    The homework is difficult but compared to how my friends homework at her college is (very little and extremely easy) I am glad because I know I am getting a great education! Exploration is a big part of the learning experience here, which is very good for some people and not so good for others. You have to decide if you feel like exploring subjects, thoughts, and ideas constantly is a good thing for you.
    Am enjoying being here

    I love the atmosphere at Gordon!! Everyone was really friendly even to the non-students. I loved that I don't really have to worry about trying to ignore inappropriate conversations or wince when I hear a swear because there is very little! If I do hear something I don't want to it is very easy to get away from. Here I am encouraged to be more accepting of peoples differences. It is a very mature and welcoming atmosphere.
    Bang for the buck

    Gordon is really expensive but my counselor was awesome and really wants to help me find as many scholarships as I can!
    Tips for prospective students

    Visit the Campus!! Gordon was at one point my 4th out of 4 colleges that I wanted to go to. Then I visited and I instantly knew it was where I was supposed to start out my college career.
    Great for these types of students

    People strong in their beliefs but willing to learn about others and develop social skills with other Christians. Those who want to really explore ideas and concepts that are not considered in everyday life.

    Am learning a lot

    My first semester has been a huge learning experience for me. My professors care about me, and want to know how I am doing outside of school. I have learned a lot this semester, both academically and about myself.
    Am enjoying being here

    Going to a Christian school has really helped my relationship with God, and the people here help keep me on track. Everyone here cares about each other, so my first semester wasn't nearly as stressful as I was expecting.
    Bang for the buck

    It is a really expensive school, so not coming from money has made it financially difficult, but ultimately, I feel like it is worth it. The amount I'm learning is great, and the atmosphere is really positive.
    Tips for prospective students

    Get involved with your classmates, join some kind of fellowship, anything to stay involved in your Christian community. I notice that it's the people who don't stay involved in the Christian community that don't end up enjoying it. It doesn't have to be a huge commitment, either. I only had a once a week bible discussion group of three people for an hour, but sometimes, that little bit is what you need to stay grounded in your faith.
    Great for these types of students

    If you enjoy getting to know other people and being recognized, Gordon is great for you. We have students from all over, and being a non-denominational school, we have people from all areas in their faith. It's a really diverse community, and it can be cliquey, but that's not incredibly overwhelming. If you don't enjoy socializing, Gordon isn't really a great fit.

    Am learning a lot

    Gordon College challenges you both academically and spiritually. It's an incredibly great college with teachers and staff who are willing to go the extra mile to work with you. There are tons of opportunities to get involved in leadership positions, when ready, and even more opportunities to glean from other's knowledge and experience.
    Am enjoying being here

    I have met the most incredible friends and mentors at Gordon. There is so much to do off campus, whether it be getting involved with the Gordon in Lynn program or doing community service right around Wenham. Boston is a mere half hour away and the beach is a 5 minute car ride from campus. There's plenty to do and so many opportunities to get involved!
    Bang for the buck

    Great school - very expensive. If you can work around the high expense - it's DEFENITLY worth it!
    Tips for prospective students

    Get involved in your community and church NOW.
    Great for these types of students

    People who are serious about their faith OR those who have a desire to learn more about Christianity and want to GET serious about their faith. Gordon's workload is large - so people who are willing and committed to school will flourish.

    Will learn a lot

    Gordon is both accepting and spiritual, as well as rigorously academic. It challenges you to create and share your own opinions on the past, present, and future.
    Will enjoy being here

    The dorms and facilities are always well kept, and the food is great! They are very kind to their visitors and guest speakers as well.
    Bang for the buck

    This school is very pricey, but the price is worth it for those who are really seeking to be blessed by God in all aspects of their life.
    Tips for prospective students

    Get scholarships! Also, bring a bike. It is a much smarter option than bringing a car to campus.

    Gordon is a wonderful campus just 5 minutes from a nice beach. Everyone I met there was inviting, kind, and very generous. On top of it all, Gordon's staff and teachers are great company and easy to get along with.
    Tips for prospective students

    Get to know the campus by traveling solo. It is a whole different experience when your parents are not holding your hand. It encourages independence and prepares you for the inevitable departure from home.
    Academic Rigor

    Gordon like any college prides them self on the academic side of student life. They offer rigorous courses for a great number of studies. They also take into consideration their students workload and make it a goal to balance the field.
    Dorm Life

    Dorm life is fantastic at Gordon college. There are: community dorms which encourage social activity, suits that offer the same communion, and apartments for upper class students looking broaden their experience. I would recommend Gordon to any prospective student looking for a unique four year college experiance.
    Food and Dining

    When it comes to dining, there are a variety of options at Gordon to choose from. Most students prefer to eat at Lane Student Center known mainly for its cafeteria. It serves a variety of food for breakfast, lunch, and diner. If that isn't enough, there is a dinner just down stairs with even more.
    What to do for fun

    Gordon is loaded with activities to pass the time and thoroughly enjoy yourself in the process. There is a beach just 5 minutes away on bike and its very close to Boston. However, many students feel it just as satisfying to spend their time in communion, and social activities.

    Gordon is an academically rigorous, yet loving community. I feel loved and accepted here, as well as challenged. The campus is beautiful, located just outside of Boston.
    Tips for prospective students

    Gordon is a place where Christians from all backgrounds are welcome. It is a place where your faith will be strengthened. The academics are rigorous, too, so be prepared to work hard.
    What to do for fun

    Boston is close by. There are also many great places to eat.
    Bang for the buck

    Tuition is costly, but the experience is like no other.

    Gordon College has a beautiful campus and a small community-style atmosphere. I enjoy the location despite its lack of night life and nearby attractions, but I don't love the close-knit feeling. At times I wish the school were a little bit bigger, but its facilities are quite acceptable for its size.
    Tips for prospective students

    I would suggest registered on time or even early. There is a long set of steps which help ease the application and preparation process for attendance at Gordon College, and the entry process is easiest when the deadlines are adhered to.
    Academic Rigor

    Most of the professors make it a goal to teach the class material thoroughly and manage class time efficiently. The workload for almost all majors at Gordon is intense and a student should expect a good amount of homework from the start of the semester.
    Dorm Life

    Most of the halls are small and have a close-knit, community feel. Many people appreciate the family atmosphere in the halls. Several of the dorms, particularly the HUD halls, are quite close to classrooms and the student center, but their facilities are not as new.
    Food and Dining

    The student center contains an upstairs and downstairs dining hall. Upstairs there is a hot line, a sandwich line, a salad bar, grill, and pizza line. Downstairs there are often several vegetarian/vegan options such as pasta salads and a grab-and-go. The food quality is acceptable but not extraordinary. Even with several of the options, the menu becomes repetitive, particularly for vegetarian students.
    What to do for fun

    The closest off-campus attractions can be reached by the weekend shuttle system or with the use of a car. There are a few malls and cafes in surrounding towns. Boston offers a good amount of attraction and night life as well. On campus there are fewer options for social gatherings.
    Bang for the buck

    Despite being an academically rigorous school, Gordon's tuition seems slightly overpriced.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    There are frequent barbecues, social gatherings, movie viewings, game get-togethers, and seminars around campus.
    Great for these types of students

    Students who are seeking a quiet, rural, community-style campus with access to the Boston area, and seeking a liberal arts education art particularly in the areas of foreign language study and linguistics.
    Greek Life

    There are no fraternities or sororities at Gordon.
    Campus Safety

    Gordon employs its own public safety force which allows for escorts and is on call in case of emergencies at all times.

The campus features the prestigious Ken Olson Science Center, a state of the art learning environment that facilitates a rigorous learning experience.
    Tips for prospective students

    Attend the college tours before hand and take advantage of the vast amounts of programs offered near the city of Lynne. This would set individuals to be distinguished in terms of resume. There are vast numbers of options for studying abroad other countries as well! The college offers a vast network internationally.
    Academic Rigor

    State of the art science facilities Ken Olson Science Center
    and state of the art education makes this college very competitive in their mathematics and science department.

    If students chose to study abroad through Gordon, then food and dining options are dependent on the country one studying in.
    What to do for fun

    There are beaches and malls in the area, it is near the South of Boston, there is free commuting to the city provided. Campus has its own back door woodlands that are ideal for recreational activities and athletics. There is also very beautiful places for those seeking more romantic environments.

    gordon college is an academically rigorous and spiritually uplifting institution that has benefited me as a young scholar and as a follower of jesus christ. gordon's community is one that is loving and open to members of all christian denominations. gordon offers many opportunities in the liberal arts and in christian ministries that makes it the perfect launching pad for a christian in today's society.
    Tips for prospective students

    prospective students should certainly visit gordon before making a decision. a visit can make or break a decision, and it is important for prospectives to get a feel for the community before sending in their deposit.
    Academic Rigor

    gordon has an impressive academic rigor. students are always slammed at finals season; gordon's academics should not be underestimated just because it is a lesser known school. every major has challenging courses that bring out the best in every student, while thoroughly preparing the students for the fields they are pursuing.
    Dorm Life

    dorm life is wonderful. i've been blessed to have great guys on my floor for two years now, and i'm looking forward to the next two years as well. the one draw-back to dorm life is the sometimes strick visitation policy, which makes it difficult for boyfriends and girlfriends (or just friends of the opposite gender) to hang out whenever they want to in their rooms.
    Food and Dining

    when the student government asks students to give an opinion on what they want to see changed, the number one response is dining services. students are not crazy about gordon's food, but the reality is that few schools (especially gordon's size) offer the finest cuisine.
    What to do for fun

    gordon has many lounges around campus where students gather to play video games, watch movies, watch espn, and do many other things. in addition, the main dining hall has a cafe where students can order food up until 11pm while relaxing on a couch to watch the game. chester's, one of the campus's hotspots, is a tavern-like setting where students can get hot and cold drinks (non-alcoholic, dry campus) while either doing homework or hanging out with friends. there are also many places in the surrounding area (i.e. malls, restaurants, cafes, theaters, boston, etc.) where students can go for fun.
    Bang for the buck

    gordon is expensive, but it's worth it in my opinion. you'll pay a lot, but you get a great education and great, life-long relationships out of it. although you'll pay a lot more for gordon than other colleges, it's important to keep in mind that gordon is still cheaper than many other competing schools.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    every sunday night, an event called catacombs is held in gordon's chapel. catacombs is an event where gordon students can gather to worship the lord jesus christ with one another. it is led start-to-finish by student worship leaders playing several contemporary instruments.
    Great for these types of students

    -born-again christians/followers of jesus christ
    -new christians looking to challenge and deepen their faith
    -those pursuing ministry
    -those pursuing to implement their faith into their area of study
    Clubs and Activities

    gordon has many clubs and activities. all things are possible through the student government, which gordon's administration has authorized to approve clubs that students want to propose. among the clubs and activites that are student run are the campus events council, which coordinates every major event on campus, along with the student venues council, which maintains student spaces and proposes the addition of new ones. if you have an idea, you can form a club at gordon.
    Campus Safety

    gordon has its own police force, which is available on call 24/7. they are very helpful and in addition to keeping campus safe, they will even come give your car a jump-start if the battery dies!

    gordon college is christian college with a large course load and a great community. there is an incredible amount of opportunities to get to know other students and make lifelong friends. gordon is situated on the north shore of boston so it is close to some of the best stores and restaurants and within minutes of some beautiful beaches.
    Tips for prospective students

    there is a lot of work but it is manageable. expect to be busy with work, but don't worry, there is plenty of time to spend with friends and doing what you want.
    Academic Rigor

    the workload is huge but doable. i was not expecting all of the work but i quickly got used to it.
    Dorm Life

    most dorms have a very good community and there are plenty of people to interact with. some are smaller with only ten or twenty people in the entire building which is better for students who like silent places to work and live.
    Food and Dining

    the food gets old fast since there is only one dining hall. the food quality is not bad, it just does not change very much.
    What to do for fun

    there are a few famous malls nearby, beaches, and hangouts that most students go to. there are also many sports that go year round, inter-mural and official.
    Bang for the buck

    the school is very expensive but the experience is great. i believe it is worth it, especially if you are looking for a good christian school.
    Clubs and Activities

    there are an incredible amount of ways to get involved in the school. there is a club for just about any and every interest one may have.
    Campus Safety

    gordon has it's own police force and is located in a small town on the north shore, a very safe area.

    The academics at Gordon are challenging but if you are interested in the topic of study, studying is easier. The enviroment is what makes the school though; the friends you make will mean more than you would expect. Spirituality is abundant on campus and truly keeps you going and connected with your peers.
    Tips for prospective students

    If you want an intimate, easy-going, yet active campus then Gordon is for you! It is however, a Christian campus so if you are not willing to hear peoples ideas about Christianity, and attend a few chapel services then I would caution you. Come visit and experience the amazing hospitality for yourself =)
    Academic Rigor

    Depending on the program, some professors can get very intense with their assignments. They are however, very supportive and understanding if something happens to divert you from your studies. Large amounts of reading seem to be the norm, and essays abound at the end of the semester. There is however, a large amount of ease around finals time.
    Dorm Life

    Active and intimate. People do everything from playing video-games or watching movies, to taking long walks or praying together.
    Food and Dining

    There are many options for lunch and dinner. We have a salad bar, hot-line, deli line, grill, and pizza area on one level, and then a cafe with other, more detailed options. Snacks are available throughout the day. At night we have grill, fry, and snack options. Throughout the afternoon and until 2am we also have a latte bar available!
    What to do for fun

    The Bennett Athletic Center is open for many activities and for long hours. Just a short walk or drive off campus are many stores and shops as well as the train into Boston. There are also many concerts, shows, dances and other random activities planned by our amazing events council.
    Bang for the buck

    There are many job opportunities on campus. Students, even if they are not on a work-study scholarship can work for: grounds work, janitorial, dinning services, mail-room, the library, technology support, admissions, at the gym, or with educational support such as tutoring or being a teachers assistant (TA). No matter how you are involved the community on campus is AMAZING. You will find true friends who are fun, serious, or both. Even as a freshman you end up knowing half of the campus. It all begins with our equally amazing orientation program.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    Gordon has many traditions. Once a year a student will blast a bag-pipe tune from the chapel steps at an obnoxiously early hour. We have an annual male beauty-pagent of sorts and a student-made movie contest. Christmas is big on campus with a Christmas concert of large proportions, tree lighting, a ball, cookie decorating and other holiday activities. As far as locations go, we have several obscure locations. Two notable ones are our own private lake beach, and a prayer chapel decorated with student prayers and praises to God. Additionally, we have a room called Chesters where students hang out at all hours; its the best place to find community and random out-bursts of disney sing along.
    Great for these types of students

    Appropriate for introverts and extroverts alike. There are many spaces to escapte to, such as our library's nooks and crannies, but when you want to socalize there is Chesters Place. Dorm common rooms are lively, but hall-ways are fairly quiet. Academic rigor is expected, but not necessary. There is no pressure either way. Being an active Christian is not a must, but it would make the campus more comfortable. There are many opportunities for the more devout and faith support is abundant. International students are also very accommodated.
    Clubs and Activities

    Womens and Mens ministry. Bible studies. Various ministries. Worship Teams. Rec-Im. Athletic Teams. Student Government. Events council. Various job opportunities. Environmental Club. School Paper. Poetry magazine. Dorm-event planning. ALANA. Orientation Staff. and more. Activities change every weekend.

    Campus Safety

    Gordon is blessed with a teriffic public safety team who are available and active 24/7. They are friendly and open to any kind of service. A friend of mine has a disability and they would give her rides from her dorm to class. In the event of a medical emergency they are speedy, calm, and understanding. Go-Po (which is our nickname for them) even offers safety classes for women. Dorms are kept locked and an officer does rounds to check that buildings are closed properly. Smoking and drinking are prohibited on the grounds.

    Am enjoying being here

    The campus is beautiful and if you have a car there are many places to go within a relatively small distance. However, it can be a little boring on campus because we are so small and it is a Christian college.
    Bang for the buck

    Gordon is very expensive. You will receive a great education while attending school here however, it will do damage to your bank account.
