Sorry for the vanity but had to brag that my son was accepted to Hillsdale College today! It was recommended on this forum so I thought I would give him a shout out here. Congratulations Hayden!

That is wonderful!

I hope your son gets in as well and I’m sure he will with that family history.

None of my three went there but Hillsdale gets a little of my hard earned cash every year just the same. I absolutely love the place!

None. He dreamed of going to Hillsdale for years now and had no second choice. When for early acceptance and got the letter yesterday.

It was the same with my first daughter. I had not heard of Hillsdale before she told me about it. When I saw their course catalog that had a fair amount of info about Hillsdale I realized that there are two classes of colleges. Hillsdale and then all the others.

All it will take is a visit. We did in October and fell in love.

Hillsdale College is an intellectual powerhouse and extremely academically rigorous/demanding. (Unlike the Ivy League, where grade inflation is rampant.)

Congratulations to your son; may he enjoy and benefit from his Hillsdale years! Here is a link to Hillsdale's alma mater, one of the most magnificent I've ever heard: http://www.hillsdale.edu/about/history/alma_mater.asp
