Hannibal-LaGrange University Reviews

Hannibal-LaGrange University provides an outstanding education to all students. The professors not only value the student's academics, but also their personal well being. Campus life provides excellent connections with other students, activities, and an all around feeling of home. Because HLG is smaller in size, students become acquainted quickly and form close-knit bonds that will likely last throughout life. There's always a variety of ways to get involved on campus that provide rewarding experiences. The distinctly Christian atmosphere has given me the chance to grow and strengthen my walk with Christ. HLG will forever be a place I call home and the memories I have made will stay with me always.

I am a massive fan og Hannibal LaGrange! The campus is positively beautiful, the professors and administration care deeply about the student, and financial aid is readily available to all students.
I had many pleasant experiences attending HLGU, but found many faults with the school too. Make sure you thoroughly read through the handbook because it stands by many strict Southern Baptist teachings. Most of my professors were great and seemed to really care about the students. Chapel is mandatory...once a week for most students. I graduated in 2016 and, at least through my years there, student life was pretty below average.
