When people say this school has a "rich atmosphere" they are right. If you are not loaded with money most of the time you will feel out of place as everyone else is seen driving Audi's or other expensive cars and most students talk about what they have. You are constantly being reminded that you aren't rich or good enough to even talk to some students because they shoot you down. The school is all about connections, you don't really get a solid degree its more about who you'll meet.

HWS provide a well-rounded education that has allowed countless students to pursue careers not necessarily related to their major or minor. Perspective is a key building block of young professionals. The ability to view and approach a situation/problem from several angles is a vital tool; one that HWS strives to teach every individual.

Quite Bright
I'm from the South, so it was quite a bit of a culture shock when I got here. However, this school has a lot to offer, take advantage of all the opportunities there are. The career center has great connections to virtually everything. You can study abroad anywhere you want. If they don't have the program you want, they'll set you up with another university group. Indeed, this is a collar-poppin' preppy rich school, but there's a lot of people who don't come from super privileged backgrounds as well.

Not so bright
Just love everything about this college. The party life is great, just everything you think of when you talk about collge. Homeword and readings could be hard and easy at the same time. Love the Econ department, challenging but fun
