Student Experience
At Calvin, you will always be encouraged to take what you learn inside the classroom and apply it to the world around you every day. Enrich your education by entering a campus film competition, running the school newspaper, or going to Washington D.C. to study great communicators in the center of American politics.
From over 70 student-led organizations to weekly campus events to service learning trips, there is always something to do on campus. Or, go even further—explore internship options in Grand Rapids or seek out new stories in countries around the globe. Whatever your interests and passions are, we want to help you pursue them in real and meaningful ways.
