Academic experience: So... is it challenging enough?

I am a current MHC student, and I’ve taken classes at both Smith and MHC, and I’ve talked to others about it, as well. Most of us agree that we think Mount Holyoke classes are harder and require more work, or are at least as challenging as Smith courses. A Smith woman who took a class here once told a friend of mine that she didn’t know what a good class was until she came here.

The academics at MHC are stimulating, challenging, and some of my classes have honestly changed my entire world view. I love my professors, and they trust us to take on an extraordinary amount of new information.

Hope this helps!
