University Reviews

Hofstra is a pretty nice school. The campus is very pretty. I love the large grass fields and flowers. The food is amazing and tasty. I wish their were was more diversity like more colored people:) I kinda feel out of place since I wear a hijab. I am shocked that there is not an Indian club. The MSA is boring and almost no events take place.

All around, great school

An interesting bunch of people, but a great school nonetheless.

I am a freshmen that was considering going to a top tier school like NYU or Duke but decided on Hofstra due to scholarships and the fact that I am graduating a year early. After being here a couple of months I have realized that Hofstra truly is a top tier college, it has resources and opportunities that cannot be topped.

Crime near by sometimes, so be careful at night. Good faculty, good food but a bit too pricy. Come here for the reputation and education, but having a scholarship or financial aid is basically a must due to its high price tag.

Keep your eyes and ears open. Hofstra is become a key player at lightening speed.

They excel in all aspects. The most important part is that they have professors teaching ALL students. There are no teaching assistants. The institution mainly have professors, doctors, adjunct professors. the quantity of HW varies among professors. most importantly they are the best teachers you can get. they have a passion about teaching.

I graduated on Sunday and when I took my last final, I felt a sense of release. Do not come here for film; it's revoltingly cliquish and so many people are complete dilettantes. There's so much emphasis on all-around skills (People who can DP, edit, write, direct) that excellence in one field is useless, but being a jack-of-all-trades is great.

Not my first choice in schools, but it'll do for how cheap it is.

The school makes you think you're on the right track to graduate, and then senior year, or end of junior year overwhelm you with a bunch of "new requirements" needed that your course plan don't mention at all. At least the food is good, expensive, but good and the gym is nice.

aside from the campus and good customer service, there really isn't much thats great about this school. overpriced for a below average education. people almost never graduate on time unless they take large course loads every semester. some departments are better than others so choose wisely if you decide on a major here.

if you have a great group of friends and you are studying what you love, this is a great place for you. Some teachers are extraordinary but others could give a ratsa$$ about their students. Administration is a joke, none of the departments actually talk to each other. If you are a science major, good luck getting out of here without crying.

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.
