    I absolutely love the small-school atmosphere at Kuyper, and the ease with which I am able to build relationships within the student body. The students Kuyper attracts all have similar goals and passions, and it is a joy to be surrounded by a family that will both push me towards excellence and walk that same road with me.

    The professors are kind, intelligent, understanding, and well-equipped to prepare us with the knowledge we need to succeed. On several occasions I have had professors go out of their way to email or stop me in the halls to encourage me on a personal level. Not only do they each know me by name, but they remember details about my life and take time to invest in me both in and out of the classroom.

    The Kuyper campus is beautiful, and with only one academic building, all classrooms are less than a 3-minute walk away.

    Faculty and staff are also warm and engaging, ready to answer questions and point in the right direction as needed.
    Grand Rapids and its' surrounding areas is full of all kinds of opportunities. If you're looking for entertainment, there's plenty to do such as movies & restaurants, festivals, the zoo etc. Grocery stores, supermarkets and ethnic shopping centers are plentiful. There are also plenty of places to look if you need a job (many of which post positions on the internet), and many ministries if you're interested in volunteering. Grand Rapids is a cool place to be!
