Hi,
I’ve received many emails from Hofstra, and before I apply, I had some questions about what the school is like. Big/small? Hard classes? Party scene? How large is the campus? Is it like a commuter school? Thank you in advance for your help!
Hey! Hofstra is a medium sized school, about 7,000 undergraduate students. As with any school, there are some hard classes and some easier classes, it’s just about your individual strengths and weaknesses. In terms of the party scene, there are students who like to go out and students who like to stay in, so either way you’re able to find what you like to do, but you won’t feel obligated to go out every night. The campus is fairly large, about 240 acres, and a lot of that space is dedicated to sports fields (we have 17 Division I sports). There are a decent number of commuters here, but also students from across the country and around the world. The split is about 3/4 residential students and 1/4 commuters. Good luck!
