“Speaking as a 2019 new-bie who knew nothing about Psychology, I want to highly recommend all of the Psychology department at Hislop College for everything they did for me and are still doing here. The staff were a real rock in every phase of my three-year BA program at Hislop and it was truly because of them that I ended up loving Psychology so much! Every professor made my coursework feel like a breeze. Their sincerity and dedication motivated us to continue doing more, and that’s what a student looks for when learning something new. I can definitely say that if you want to start learning about Psychology, Hislop College is the place to be! 🤍 ~ Anchal Bhatia, MBA |

It’s here that I discovered my academic strengths, topping the university during my undergraduate years and chose to continue my Master’s in Psychology under the mentorship of dedicated and inspiring faculty.

Hislop is not just a college—it’s a community that believes in nurturing every facet of who you are.” ~ Kamakshi Hampiholi |
