Overall Experience at Calvin College

4.2
A-

Overall Good

I love a lot of things about Calvin, the people, the class size, the surrounding community, the on-campus activities, the liberal arts aspects, but I do not like the theatre program very much, or the crc based religion because it is too close-minded and conservative for me. Some of the rules are also a bit strict.
