Hanover was the best decision of my life! It is in a small town and not many people have heard of us, but the people who have heard of us will give you a job hands down. There are endless connections and big names who have graduated from here such as the Vice President of the United States. You're missing out if you turn this place down.

It is a great school, it is just not known as well as bigger state schools, as this school is a very small private college. However, we do have international students and we have the best connections and opportunities for acquiring experience for our careers. Also, your professor actually knows you and wants to get to know you!

As long as you don't question what's going on you'll be ok. As soon as you open your eyes to what the place really is you'll realize you've made the biggest mistake of your life. They profit off your dreams of being an athlete at the collegiate level and take every penny your parents have. PLEASE get out while you still can-TOP FLOOR.

Don't go there unless you plan on to go to law school or medical school. otherwise you probably have super hard time getting legit internships or jobs.

The small class sizes and liberal arts education are what drew me into the school, but I soon found out that the school was TOO small. The administration and staff seem to be more concerned about recruitment of new students than about the treatment of the students on campus. I would not recommend this college.

A Lack luster School socially, great academics though. I'm from out of state and don't enjoy it as much because there is barely anyone who's not from the surrounding area. (Approx. Pop. - 1,000 Stu.)
