College Overview: High Point

High Point: Up to date HPU review.
High Point University is not the same school it was four years ago. Maybe three at that. The incoming Freshman class as a whole has a much higher GPA than 3 years ago. The average SAT score has nearly doubled, and more and more students are coming in with AP credit and top notch credentials. Some of the reviews here are old and outdated and basically describe HPU circa 2005/2006. I'm going to give you an honest, and up to date review of HPU, so lets begin!

High Point: Not as great as it seems.....
High Point is a really small campus, so it's great when walking to class, my longest walk to a class is only about 2 minutes. I chose HPU mostly because of this. But there are also not many students on campus, so I see the same people everyday, and it's annoying. If you like that, then HPU is for you. The food is also not so great. At first, it seemed awesome, but there really is not much variety and there's a lot of the same stuff everyday and it gets old really fast. I tend to eat at Chick Fil...

High Point: A Great School All-Around
Don''t choose HPU just for the glitz and glam...really look at the academics and the social life and see if you truly fit there. A lot of people think they can sacrifice liking it to go to a school that nice. That's a big mistake. If you don't feel like you could see yourself here, truly think about that.
