Small class sizes allow for one on one mentor ship with professors. The relationships built with faculty, staff and classmates are invaluable. Opportunities offered at Notre Dame and St. Mary's allow for an enhanced college experience. The networking provided by faculty is the essential for a successful career upon graduation; Holy Cross goes above and beyond in this respect.
Holy Cross College is an extremely tight-nit community that is very welcoming of people from all backgrounds. Most of the professors understand that you want to transfer out and they will do their best to use connections and letters of recommendations. You get a lot of benefits that the Notre Dame students receive. Campus is extremely small, but Notre Dame makes up for the size. The gym at HCC is spectacular. Even the Notre Dame guys will come over.
I absolutely love Holy Cross. I am very active in campus being an RA and a student-athlete. I work in the Presidents office due to the friends and people I have met through Holy Cross has set me for life! The small class sizes and intimate teaching times have given me attention I needed in order to be successful.
