Best HBCU in the country!
Overall 4.5
Morehouse College is a private all male institution that develops a "RENAISSANCE MAN," who is Well Dressed, Well Read, Well Traveled, Well Spoken, and Well Balanced! Spelman College, which is a private all female institution is right next to Morehouse and they have a special bond that you will only understand attending there. SpelHouse all day!!

Overall, Morehouse is a great school, especially for reputation and opportunities to get internships and networks. But the experience is not the greatest. If you come to Morehouse you'll have fun and meet great people, but it is not the best thing ever. You will struggle at times, but as long as you make your stay worthwhile, you will enjoy it.

just added stress that you wouldnt have to deal with at other schools
Overall 1.8
its reputation of prestige and dignified men is incredibly inaccurate. is not the divine HBCU it claims to be. Uses its famous alumni as a crutch and does not meet the high bar it tries to cling to. Facilities are poor and administration is just as bad.
