“Applying feel like lifting big boulder. Almost defeated Gruk. But the admissions people, patient as old shaman, showed Gruk the way. Step by step, they guide Gruk through the process.

Above all else, we want students to get what they pay for. No bait* and switch. Why else would The Princeton Review name H-SC a best value college?
