When I enrolled, Seton Hill was undergoing some monumental changes in structure, focus and curriculum. It is a small, private, Catholic liberal arts college, but don't feel intimidated. The school is very progressive as a Catholic college, with the biggest emphasis on social justice, multicultural dialogue and personal development. There is a very active Habitat for Humanity chapter, a Martin Luther King Day of Service integrated into the curriculum and professors that emphasize ethics. Seton Hill does the difficult task of combining professional and entrepreneurial development with personal development. A foundation in the liberal arts is a great advantage as additional education at graduate and professional schools is almost always inevitable in an expanding workforce. Seton Hill will help you discover your passion, evaluate your goals and give you the tools necessary to move on.

The difference is in the people all around you, professors know you by name and actually care about both their discipline and their students. Syllabuses follow a logical, standardized form and are easy to use to monitor your progress. If you take the course of study seriously, this school will shape you more than you can imagine. Some of the most important lessons to be gained here are not in the classroom. A foundation here will not prepare you for a job, but for a career and for life.
