    I am currently attending school at Glen Oaks Community College. I started community college right after high school, and GOCC is in the same town as my high school, so it is conveniently located for high school graduates in Centreville, MI. The college's location is also close to other high schools in the county.
    My overall experience at Glen Oaks has been positive. The professors are knowledgeable. I rarely question their ability to teach or whether the information they are sharing is inaccurate. The instructors are happy to teach the students, and they enjoy their jobs. The staff at the college are very friendly! They may not know who you are, but they will smile and greet you no matter what, which is thoughtful. And the staff is helpful! They will come to your aid and answer your questions.
    Glen Oaks is a small community college in Michigan. It has a good great curriculum with small classes. It is located in a very rural area. The dorms are very nice and new. They are designed like a apartment.
    The school has about 1500 students. Most of the students are from neighboring states like Indiana and Illinois. The school is diverse. You are allowed a car your first year.

    With the school being in the heart of rural land a car is a must. The next city is about 15 away. A lot of two lane highways. Overall, great school. The only thing is the location.

    Great response time to any questions. Everyone is very helpful. I appreciate all the assistance I have received.
