The Hogwarts House of Each Myers-Briggs® Personality Type

The ENFP – Most Likely Choice: Gryffindor

Second-Most Likely: Hufflepuff

As an ENFP you have a natural desire to stick up for the underdogs of the world. You hate seeing anyone mistreated and become fiery and outspoken in the defense of the oppressed. Your creative, adventurous soul is the perfect fit for Gryffindor, although you also might find a welcome home in Hufflepuff, where kindness and fairness prevail. Your fierce devotion to your cause, your impulsive nature, and strong moral compass naturally make you a perfect fit for the Gryffindor family.

Slytherin house rewards individuals who are cunning, ambitious, creative, and determined. Success-oriented and visionary, you fit perfectly into this house.
