[quote=Anonymous]Toured HPU as a result of their glossy mailings.  It was over the top but in all the good ways.  Both my daughter and I walked away with wonderful impression.  They are building a campus not for the student body they have but it is apparent that they have big plans and are going places.  New Law School, new dental school.  They left me with the impression that whatever you want to do, they will move heaven and earth to help you get there.

I’d have been delighted if my kid ended up there.  And imagine for some kids who might need extra hand-holding, it would be a wonderful atmosphere.  Every kid has an academic mentor and monthly meetings.  My daughter doesn’t need a high level of hand holding but I have a son who sure could use someone a bit closer in his corner when he goes off to college.  So, I’ll keep it in mind for him.

Last thing to note, for undecided majors, it was a breath of fresh air.  The room and flexibility to try different things, like a SLAC but the size of a University.  They can work with kids to figure it out and still graduate on time.  We loved it!  DD ended up at state flagship so that’s why she didn’t go.[/quote]
