Mount Holyoke Transfer

Hi! I just got accepted as a Spring 2021 transfer to Mount Holyoke and I’m so happy. Before I make my final decision as to whether I want to attend, I wanted to see if I can get a tad bit more insight about the college. Here are my questions:

-How is the environment on campus(classes, activities, dorms, etc.)?

-How is the environment off campus(things to do around the campus, etc.)?

-Any tips for adjusting to the weather? (I’m coming from California)

-How are the financial aid packages? (Are they pretty close to the Net Price calculator value?)

-How are POC, specifically black women, treated on campus and off-campus?

*If I do attend, I will be deferring my enrollment until the Fall 2021 semester.

Hello! I have been admitted as a transfer student. I am wondering what the best way is to meet people before coming to campus? I think they put me as a sophomore almost a junior based on my transfer credits. I don’t want to post any personal information on here feel free to message me! :slight_smile:
