I loved Eastern. There are a ton of things going on campus, but being a commuter school, there isn't much of a campus life. I still envied the campus-residence students, as the campus has strong potential for summer fun. The students are also some of the friendliest I've met.
As a science major, resources were ubiquitous :) and located conveniently. Science professors and TAs alike were extremely knowledgable, approachable, and well-meaning, especially those of the chemistry and physics departments. The biology department, however, I found insincere, detached, and ill-supportive.
The campus feels very safe; the campus escort service 'SeeUs' can be easily spotted all across the campus.
I succeeded in securing a job where I could make the most from my degree immediately after graduation, and I felt EMU had strongly prepared me in assuming the role.
EMU supports their students in many ways, and I encourage current and future students to discover EMU!

Eastern is an very good coordinated, fair school. I lived on campus & loved it when I was an freshman. There were really nice/friendly other college students, food, events & activities to attend. Also the offered tons of college student jobs around the campus. It was almost impossible to not get involved with the campus. On the other hand, when COVID came out everything transferred to online so from there, I’ve been taking online courses! Also, something I really enjoyed or liked about Eastern was the single dorms, you didn’t have to always get a room Mate if you didn’t want to. The singles were very comfortable & felt like home. Something I wish eastern would change is some of their teachers or new teachers. Honestly, using rate my professor helped me through my semesters!
When it comes to online learning with Eastern Michigan you really can't go wrong. With everything going on right now with COVID and the pandemic all students have been forced to make the switch to online learning. Most colleges don't know what to do in this situation because they have never really perfected the ideal online class structure. The professors are lost and stressed and this gets passed down to the students and it's a huge mess. Eastern Michigan University is unlike these other universities. Why you ask? They mastered the ideal online class structure and they didn't do this over night. Eastern Michigan knows that showing up to class at a set time can be hard for certain students. People work and have families which means that online schooling is a need. Eastern has been testing online learning for several years and over time they have learned what does and doesn't work when it comes to online learning, students, and professors. Also, Eastern's classes are cheap!
