Not so bright
The Torrey Honors program at Biola is fantastic and should be amongst the top choice for any person of Christian faith considering a university. Biola continues to improve on its 100 + years of faithful scholarship and I am proud to be a part of that legacy.

I strongly recommend Biola for any students out there considering attending.

Super Brilliant
Biola has one of the most respected philosophy programs in the nation. While it may not be the most well known university in general, within the world of philosophy Biola is a force to be reckoned with. Philosophy graduates routinely receive placement in top programs, including USC, Notre Dame, Yale, Harvard, Princeton etc.

The community at Biola is fantastic, although this is NOT the place to come if you are not serious about exploring the cross roads between faith and reason.

There isn't another school in the country that offers a prestigious degree in conjunction with an educational perspective that, while rigorous and challenging, begins with the assumption that there is a God and He matters. I don't see how any person of faith could choose to attend a university that begins the entire premise of their education by flatly denying God's existence and contradicting their most sacred of beliefs.

Biola is amazing and I'm so happy to see it growing stronger every day.

Quite Bright
It was quite a while ago since I went to Biola, but I felt as though the University was self promoting and used the students far too much to this end. The only thing they seemed worried about was getting more students to attend and increasing their "kingdom". As an art student, I felt loved and appreciated by the staff and professors. However, I felt used and abused by the school. I had one of the best and worst education experiences.

It was the best because the professors in the art program gave personal attention to each student. They made sure that you knew what they expected from you.

However, it was the worst experience because we were always fighting with the administration for more funding.

If you go to Biola for art, make sure that this has changed. As questions of the art students themselves and of the professors. The art department really needs the support of the University, not just the students.

I received a wonderful education and met the coolest people I know at Biola. I couldn't have asked for anything more.

GO EAGLES!
