Am learning a lot
Some classes have challenged me, but in many others, I have to challenge myself to grow. In some of the introductory courses, it would not take much effort to receive an A in the class. Doing the minimum will hurt you in the long run though.
Am enjoying being here
There is not much social activity. There are people from all different walks of life (different ages, social classes, nationalities, races, etc.). That makes it interesting, but most people show up to class, don't interact, and then leave when it's over. It's hard to make friends unless you get involved in a program with a small number of students.
Tips for prospective students
If you find that it is hard to meet people, try to find ways to get involved with a group or make a stronger effort to befriend classmates.
Great for these types of students
Self-motivated students, adults who are returning to school, students who are unsure of what they want to major in, and students who want to save money

Am learning a lot
The teachers at this institution have an uncanny amount of knowledge. It's surprising how in depth and passionate many are about their studies.
Am enjoying being here
Having an introverted disposition, the surprisingly sprawling campus filled with scenery and people who keep to themselves is nice.
Bang for the buck
You won't find high quality education for less!
Tips for prospective students
Mt. Hood offers programs that are unique to the Northwest, like a Wilderness survival education degree and a mortuary sciences degree. Get involved!
Great for these types of students
Students who like to keep to themselves and who enjoy a teacher passionate about their content will love Mt. Hood.
