<p>So someone here.......im interested in applying to the place next fall.......can someone describe to me the atmosphere of the student body? friendly? compettative? stick-up-the-ass a-holes? would a pacific north-west kid who is not preppy in the least bit get along well with the rest of the group?</p>
<p>Hi! i am going to be a HC freshman next year... from my many, many visits I can tell you that the student body is very friendly. The administration and teachers are also veryyyy friendly and extremely helpful. HC is known for intense academics but the school is veryyy supportive and into "cura personalis" or "care of the person." I guess HC is preppy, but I am not the best judge as although I do not consider myself preppy I come from a very preppy high school so HC doesn't seem that preppy to me. </p>
<p>idk if this helps but if you have more questions I can try to answer them to the best of my ability!</p>
