    Tips for prospective students

    Apply early to be eligible for more scholarships, and be sure to get your deposit in ASAP so that you can get into an early registration session to get the classes you want before they're all taken. I went to a later session and now I have all morning classes and I didn't get either of the top 3 english classes that I wanted. And all of my classes were in the morning starting at 8 am. So be sure to get yourself into an early LEAP session!

    Hanover is more than a college, it's a community. I've never felt so accepted and welcomed in such a great environment. I feel like I wouldn't be the same person without my liberal arts education I've received here.

    Tips for prospective students

    Come and stay overnight! It will give you a great feel for what Hanover has to offer and what it is really like. You can stay with freshmen or upper-class students. Come sit in on classes for a true college experience.

    Academic Rigor

    Hanover challenges their students to push beyond what they think they can do. There are lots of assignments and homework, however the professors are always available for assistance.

    Dorm Life

    Freshmen housing isn't terrific but it's worth waiting for the upper class housing. There are dorms, suites, and apartments for students.

    Food and Dining

    There are three options to choose from on campus. The first is the Campus Center dining room. This is a buffet style dining room which features a variety of foods from pizza, to hamburgers, to chicken and noodles. There is a salad bar and freezer full of ice cream. Another option is the Underground. This is a faster option for students in a rush. There are Pizza Huts personal pizzas, snacks, made to order wraps, and many more choices. The third option is the Shoebox. This is a student run restaurant located on campus. They feature burgers, fries, appetizers, milkshakes, alcohol, and much more. This is a dining experience unlike the others on campus. Along with a big screen tv, karaoke happens often and concerts are usually held there.

    Bang for the buck

    Hanover doesn't have any hidden fees. Your tuition, room, and board are all you have to pay. This includes cable, free laundry, wireless Internet, free tutoring, career services, and access to a fully equipped gym among other things.

    On Hanover's campus there is a special place called the Point. This is on the edge of campus overlooking the Ohio River. This is the only place in which you can see three bends in the Ohio River. The campus is surrounded by woods in which there are trails to hike and waterfalls to explore.

    Great for these types of students

    Hanover is a wonderful campus for students looking for a small community. The professors here will know you on a personal level and help you succeed. Although the campus is small, it is beautiful and full of life.

    Clubs and Activities

    There are over 60 organizations and clubs on campus. No matter your interests, there is something for you!

    Greek Life

    Hanover has four sororities and five fraternities. Almost 50% of the campus is involved in Greek life and scholarship is important in the recruitment process. They sponsor philanthrophy events throughout the year and are involved in many organizations.

    Campus Safety

    Hanover is a very safe campus. Security is always available any time of day if you need a ride home or want someone to walk them to class. Their office is located on campus and can often be seen driving around campus.

    hanover is a beautifully lush and green campus. there are various hiking trails and waterfalls within 5 minutes walk of your dorm room. there is a strong sense of community.

    Tips for prospective students

    think about the size of school you want. at a big school you will meet new people all the time, but will you ever see them again? at hanover, you will see the same people everyday and get to know them well. if you get tired of people easily, maybe hanover isn't the place for you.

    Academic Rigor

    hanover is extremely hard. do not think you can skip all your classes, party, and not do your work. you will fail! however, if you actually do your work and go to class the teachers will do the best they can to pass you and help you out.

    Dorm Life

    the dorms are not the nicest. no air conditioning in most buildings.

    Food and Dining

    for how small hanover is the food is not bad. the hours are inconvinient though. nowhere to eat after 11pm.

    What to do for fun

    outdoor activities, sports, drink.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    we have a kissing rock. if you kiss someone there you are supposedly going to end up to marrying them.

    the school is great and friendly. it is tucked away, but one can easily access surrounding cities. the campus is wonderful.

    Tips for prospective students

    seeing as to how i am only researching, i will say this: be careful on the windy scenic entrance.

    Dorm Life

    i spent the night in a sorority. it was ok, but kind of cramped.

    Food and Dining

    excellent, and easy.

    Bang for the buck

    Know when and when not to spend your money. It is really easy to run out of money if you are spending it on fast fun and going out often. There are a lot of things on campus that is covered under your student account and a lot of activities so that you don't really have to spend your own money.

    Tips for prospective students

    Trying working on your ability to write a thesis before you reach you freshmen year, it will make your freshmen year a lot easier.

    Great for these types of students

    Great for students who have a good understanding on proper time-management.
