Senior: I am about to graduate on May 27th, 2021 and I have enjoyed my time at MIAT of Canton, Mi. I moved to Michigan 1 week prior to starting school in October 2020. Personal issues were thrown at me left and right, I wasn't sure how being so far away from home (Florida) I would be able to continue or even finish education. MIAT stepped in to make sure I had what I needed to see through my education at their facility. They truly cared about what I was going through and wanted to make sure that I was successful. I will forever be grateful for their generosity and compassion. As for all of the instructors at this school, Jason, Ken, and Alex, I could never say anything other than these men were amazing at what they do. They shared their personal experiences that pertained to the course. Ken made understanding electricity so easy and streamlined. Thank you guys and MIAT for supporting me through my education and getting through Covid-19 together.... Read 60 reviews

Sophomore: Ferris State University is outstanding! My high school experience was online, so I didn't have much social interaction. I was incredibly nervous about attending and moving away from home. However, Ferris State made me feel welcome. I enjoyed the various activities and events that were held! When I had an issue with my roommate and wanted to move out, Ferris' employees helped me get a new room set up and answered all of my questions.... Read 2,157 reviews

The professors, students, and aides were welcoming and understanding, figuring out ways to help with assignments, paying for tuition, and finding the best courses to take for my degree. I have recommended Siena Heights to family and friends and would do it again!... Read 484 reviews

Junior: When I started at Northern Michigan University, I was a pre-med neuroscience major with the intention of going to medical school. My experience within this program was great, but unfortunately, Covid happened and it shifted both my perspective and plans. I switched into the school of business and it was not a good experience. I had multiple professors who seemed to not care about their students at all. I then switched into the construction management program and it has been nothing short of amazing. Each instructor cares whole-heartedly about the success of each individual student. The opportunities the CM program gives are endless and always up for grabs. They promote hard work and prepare us for our real-world jobs for sure. They are always willing to help with anything and want to see students move on and succeed. Both the instructors and the program are absolutely outstanding.... Read 1,141 reviews

Freshman: I am an incoming freshman and so far, all of my interactions have been great! I have had many family members attend Western Michigan university and plan to be the next one to become a Bronco. Academically, Western offers the Western School of Medicine that I am interested in and plan to one day join the medical field as my mother is a Registered Nurse. Helping others is something that I am passionate about and hope that I will be an asset to the much-needed health care family. With the growing shortage of medical providers in the country and the need increasing daily I believe that Western will be able to help me to obtain my education and be an added value to the community. Thank you for allowing me this opportunity to provide information on Western so far as I still have a lot to learn but hope that Western will guide me through the process and have a great freshman year at collage. I do have a roommate from home that will also be a great help as we will be figuring this out.... Read 3,570 reviews

Alum: I loved Bay college. I was a non-traditional college student that attended college after 30 plus years of graduating High School. I deal with disabilities and Bay College was an amazing college for me! It was close to home, and when I did have to travel it was not a far drive from Iron Mountain Campus to Escanaba Campus. The office that helps with disablilty was amazing for my situation, and the staff was so helpful. I attended college with a variety of students ranging from High School graduates to senior citizens, and I loved it! I successfully graduated with my AAS in Office Administration and Medical Office Specialist. I would rate Bay College 5 stars across the board!... Read 161 reviews

Junior: I am so glad I enrolled in early college at Macomb Community College. I couldn’t have asked for a better college experience! There are so many aspects of Macomb that you don’t get at a lot of other colleges. In my experience all of the professors here really take interest in helping you learn the material, making sure you understand, and are doing well in the class. It’s such a nice environment on campus, everyone is friendly and you meet great people with similar interests in your classes. Another thing I love is that the professors encourage you to get to know your classmates. I really don’t know how I would have passed some of my classes if I didn’t have people to talk to, work, and study with. Macomb is such a great school and is a smart move to get some of your credits for less money than it would cost at a 4 year University!... Read 951 reviews

Freshman: I was a college freshman who couldn't decide where I wanted to go or what I wanted to do. I decided to go to Grand Rapids Community College (GRCC) in the meantime to explore some electives and figure out what I wanted to go into. I took Photography, Intro to Piano, and Drawing I, all things I was interest in. I was self-taught in piano and my class really helped me learn the basics incredibly well. I am already very experienced in art, so I didn't expect to get much out of the introductory drawing class, but the professor was very good at challenging each student's personal level. I ended up learning plenty while still in a class for beginners. I only got into photography in my senior year of high school, but my photography class was super helpful in learning both the technical and creative aspects of photography. Overall, I highly recommend GRCC for students unsure of where or what they want to do. The Professors are kind and helpful to all skill levels!... Read 902 reviews

Sophomore: The teachers are generally very helpful and truly care for their students to learn. I mostly enjoyed the biology courses I have taken so far at the Southfield campus. The labs are immersive and so much fun! Also, if you are looking for electives, Oakland community college provides a wide range of interesting topics to choose from. I have taken a myth, magic and religion class, and I’m currently taking Spanish online. I would recommend this college to friends for a cheaper, more enjoyable college experience....

Sophomore: Lansing Community College handled the pandemic really well. The transition to online learning was pretty smooth. Now two years into the pandemic, LCC is starting to offer more in person class options, which is awesome! Except they are also taking away online learning options, which made the college more accessible for more people. Class sizes are small and personal, it gives better opportunities to get to know your instructor. Even with online learning I made bonds with some of my instructors. Overall LCC is a great place to be, I 10/10 recommend starting (and/or finishing) your higher education journey at Lansing Community College!... Read 1,000 reviews

Alum: WCC is the best and most affordable college in the state of Michigan. Their programs are wide-ranging and extremely advanced, especially compared to other colleges. Very few colleges in the US the same amount effort into taking care of their students like at WCC. The resources they offer students are wide-ranging and easily accessible. The professors are usually extremely prefessional and highly experienced in their field of study. Of course there are teachers who are not, but the majority of teachers are good at their jobs. The in-person, virtual, and blended courses are somewhat lenient with due dates and missed tests; however, the online classes with no ZOOM component are brutal. There is basically zero interaction with the teachers except through email or the notes they leave on your graded assignments. If you're having a hard time or are falling behind the teacher isn't going to do much. Overall, WCC is a wonderful school with plenty of resources for students of all backgrounds....

Sophomore: Delta College is a great place to study! It is more affordable than most colleges and it offers a great variety of classes and associate degrees. Being in college during the pandemic, they have made sure to keep their students and staff safe throughout the past couple of years. The professors are phenomenal, (of course, you are going to encounter some that are not) and they are willing to help you with everything you need. The classes are relatively small, therefore you can have more one-on-one learning experiences.... Read 580 reviews

The classes aren't super big which is good for people with anxiety, like me. I have got close with plenty of professors and still visit them to this day. The people that go to Schoolcraft are also very sweet and quiet. I have made some really great friends at Schoolcraft that I will have forever. I have made many amazing memories that I will always remember as well. Schoolcraft College and all the memories/friends I have gained will never be forgotten!... Read 731 reviews

They genuinely care about their students personal lives and what their futures hold. It's hard to find a large enrollmenet sized school with people who puruse relationships with their students. I would like to see a change in how student-athletes support other student athletes along with the facilities. It would be great to se KVCC get on campus housing with the years to come for it would allow for the student life and culture to be better.... Read 477 reviews

Sophomore: Muskegon community college is an excellent start for bright students that wish to push their learning further while perhaps on a budget! MCC has helped me get my associates degree through numerous scholarship opportunities and plentiful resources with learning. I swear that I was getting graduate level instructors while at a 100 and 200 level course. Something I wish to see change in is the financial side of things, they are not the most clear about how much tuition can cost, and you may have to do the digging yourself to figure out the math. Overall, I really enjoyed being at MCC and recommend it for others!... Read 443 reviews

Graduate Student: As an Adventist student who has experienced both undergraduate and graduate studies at my university, I am delighted to share my perspective on the institution. From the very beginning, I felt a strong sense of community and spiritual guidance that resonated with my beliefs.

Sophomore: My experience at Northwestern community college has been fantastic, the campus is small, and the people are super friendly. I have made a lot of friends, and I've learned a lot from my professors. The campus is beautiful, and the education, at least in the audio technology program, is excellent. My only criticism would be that the cafeteria food gets a little boring later in the semester, which wouldn't be a problem if we were not required to buy a meal plan, but as a first year student on campus, it is a requirement. I think adding more variety in the soup choices and the specials would be a great addition to keep things interesting.... Read 429 reviews

Niche User: Super easy and laid back. It's a great way to transition to university since most of the credits are transferrable. Most of the professors are nice, and the school offers different methods of online courses. The people who work there do a great job at leading you through everything and they are very inclusive. They don't offer anything like dorms because they were a community college but switched to being a regular college recently, since they expanded their nursing program to a 4-year degree.

My only request is that JC higher-ups make better choices when borrowing educators from other colleges and universities.

Kellogg helped me navigate graduating and starting pre-reqs for nursing school. I love the staff and all of the professors at my school, they are helpful, outgoing, smart, and they teach you their knowledge better than you could ask for. I am also a part of the Kellogg Community College womens bowling team which is also a great experience, I have been competing since I was 13 but I never have felt a sense of belonging like I do on KCC's team.
