Good reviews
Overall 4.7
WHC has grown so much since previous reviews. going into my junior year here and am so happy that i picked this college. great location, 7-min drive from the beach + restaurants, concerts, and fresh markets right across the street in abacoa. relationships with professors are great bc of small class sizes and clubs for so many interests. love it sm!
Overall 4.5
I love it here! The food is so much better than my mom's, Jupiter is a beautiful city, and the dorms are nice. Everyone at the campus gets a scholarship. The school is very small so you get to know everyone, and everyone is very nice. I am currently doing an internship at Scripps. There are different sports every night on the red field.
Overall 4.2
This campus was exactly what I was looking for in a college: Small/quiet campus, far away from home but not too far, and a quality education! I am actively involved in multiple on-campus opportunities, including clubs and student government. There are many events every week to accommodate everyone's interests. The food and wi-fi could be improved.
