Very caring prof. He taught class a day after he came out of hospital. Amazing lectures w/his experience blended in case discussion. No term paper/pro...

he likes to go off on mad tangents but he has a fairly easy class. One quiz, midterm, and then final all multiple choice.

Professor Bengels is a really tough grader. She will make sure you get things right, but is very unforgiving with mistakes (Look up comma splice). I w...

University Reviews

Long Island is famous of fruit farms where pears grow and ripe. Make your visit and buy some for yourself and share with your families and friends.

It is an OK place. Considering the surrounding, Hofstra campus is very safe. Food is the worst in North America.

Hofstra is a good school and I'm genuinely enjoying my time here. I'm just not sure if it's necessarily worth the price tag

Hofstra is an amazing school and so close to NYC which is very convenient. I would recommend this school to anyone!

Its a good school. I am happy I attended as an undergraduate. Had some inspiring professors. But not very helpful after graduation.

not horrible, but not the best either

Great place to be to connect to nyc but the food isnt great and the town isnt safe. dorms are alright and you have to join a club, sports team or frat to be social and have friends. some profs are amazing and some just truly suck. tuition is way too expensive so if you can go somewhere cheaper go for it, dont waste your $$$ here

The food sucks but everything else is great!

Charming school!

Hofstra is a great school for the most part. The campus's location is not great, but it's definitely not as bad as people may claim. Public Safety (basically campus police) are retired police officers (etc.) and work tirelessly to help when you lose your keys or when you're drunk, passed out on the side of the road.

The pros of the school are the aesthetics, its a beautiful campus and the buildings and dorms are pretty good compared to other colleges. Some departments, classes are small and a great way to know the professor and faculty. However, having a small faculty means less research options for undergrads. No social or school spirit for sports.

Unless they give you a ton of money to go here it's not worth it what so ever.

I just transferred in. The culture here is almost nonexistent. Everyone keeps to themselves for the most part. You've got regular people, weirdos, teams, etc. Joining some type of club is a must or you'll be a loner. Overall I'm here for my degree. Stay alert at night off campus, not the best area. Dorms are nice. Only good spot for food is in CV.

Faculty are all very nice and helpful. It is as quiet as can be on the weekends, social life sucks.
