My advice to you: Tour campus! No matter where you think you want to go to school, make sure to take that campus tour before officially deciding. Once you are on the campus, you get a great feel for what the campus environment is like and if it is the right fit for you.

My advice to you: No matter where you go, college will challenge you in ways you never expected. Keep an open mind and be ready to leave your comfort zone behind, this is your time to grow as a person and decide who you want to be!
College can be a disorienting experience-on your own in an unfamiliar place with unfamiliar people for the first time can be rough for everybody. What’s so amazing to me is how hard everybody at McPherson College works to make you feel at home, from faculty to staff, and even our students, you really feel that there is a place for everyone in our campus community!
