From Lawrence Technological University
Lawrence Tech is a small, private university in Southfield, Michigan -- about 15 minutes northwest of downtown Detroit. In colleges of Arts & Sciences, Architecture & Design, Business & IT, and Engineering, LTU students transform their passions into careers through experiential learning, undergraduate research, and co-ops and internships.

What a place! The comfort and enjoyment I have attending this college is beyond measurable. One thing I enjoy the most about Lawrence Tech is how nice everyone is. If I'm lost or need assistance with anything, I always find someone to help. The proffesors are the best and the way they teach helps us students understand the material causing us to have little to no stress. The small class sizes gives us more of an opportunity to seek help from the proffesor without having to stay after school and talk to them during office hours. There isn't anywhere else I'd go and that just tells you how much I enjoy in here! I hope new students in the future experience the same positive outlooks Ive had here at Lawrence Tech!
I graduated thus school with a Master Degree in Architecture and have experienced almost every aspect of the school as a student, athlete, and worker. With that being said almost every step of the way was an absolute headache. This school will bleed you dry and have you leave with hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt. 70% of the professors make classes miserable and do not care for the students well being. The management (Housing, Student affairs, Athletics, Class Registration, etc.) will make every step of the way difficult. Teachers and management are almost never on the same page and the students pay for it every time. LTU "wants" to act like a large D1 school yet will expect the students to do all of the work or pay consequences that you would normally never have to deal with. When I think I'm free from this schools hell, they send me an oversized (11x14, standard MDeg is 8.5x11) crooked print degree. You will get an OK scholarly experience but IT IS NOT worth the headache!!!
I have taken many online classes throughout my four years at LTU. I have learned that Professors are quite clear with what their requirements are for classes. They usually post most of the important grades, or homework assignment work on Canvas and then send announcements for the class throughout emails on google. I have learned so much about how the online classes are run and am glad that the professors are willing to help out in anyway that they can. Online classes typically are much harder than in-person classes due to the lack of engagement outside of class. There tends to be t a lot of use of technology due to the fact that everything is due online. The online classes that I took during Covid-19 have really challenged recently and have taught me how to bee the master of technology. I am quite glad that I have had the opportunity to take online classes during my college academic experience. The way that LTU has taught Online classes is truly exemplary.
