Huntingdon is a amazing place great people and wonderful scenery. Staff was super helpful. The old campus made me feel at home it’s like stepping into the past with updates in classrooms and teachers. They were down home and try to make everyone feel at home.

Zach - 04/23/2019

I love Huntingdon! It's people friendly and such a great campus! The Athletics are amazingly good and will always have a pretty good football and baseball team with the coaching staff that is there. The best part about the entire college is that we all get along and make the best of where we are and what we will be doing in the future.

Jana - 03/06/2019

It’s a wonderful college and campus. Everyone is nice. There is no bullying. The professors are always there when you need them, even if it is in the middle of the night. No student gets left behind. The library is always open to students in case someone needs to study. The dorms are always clean.

Cannot wait to start in 2019. Best campus tour and experience. I have toured multiple campuses in Florida but have choosen an out of State college based on the degree choices, athletic department, campus life and character of the campus. It is a diverse school with low teacher student ratios.

    I love that Huntingdon College offers their Adult Degree Completion Program so that professionals can take classes while pursuing their careers. We meet one night per week for 3 consecutive "sessions" each semester. I am a full time college student and I don't have to give up my full time job in order to take classes. I don't have to take online classes--I get to have instruction from an actual teacher in an actual classroom setting.

  12. What's the most frustrating thing about your school?

    The administrators are not in tune with the students needs. They are too concerned about the colleges image and not concerned enough about what the student body needs. The school has a dry campus policy which would be fine but the school uses this to persecute students who deviate from this dry policy which hurts retention rate incredibly. The biggest problem with our school is the Provost, Sid Stubbs. He is not concerned at all with the students and is making it his goal to make it incredibly difficult to graduate.
