Sophomore: I just finished my freshmen year at Davenport University, where I'm studying marketing! DU gave me a great freshmen year college experience that prepared me for the next three years of my life. I met so many great people and had special bonds with all the faculty and staff. Being at a small school like DU gave me the opportunities to communicate better to my teachers, and get the extra help I needed to succeed in my classes. Not only am I a full time student but I also work and am apart of the Pompon team at DU. I work under the center of campus life where I help create posters and social media posts, along with help run and set up the school events. I joined the Pom team before my freshman year not knowing much about the sport but its been the best decision I've ever made. For Pom we perform at football and basketball games along with four competitions throughout there year. Overall the school has given me so many resources to succeed along with lifelong friends....

Freshman: Hello! I attend Cornerstone University in Grand Rapids, MI. I have enjoyed my time at the university so far. To begin, the faculty in admissions and registration are open, honest, and kind. I have appreciated all they did to help in my entrance to college. Next, I have been overwhelmed by the respect that the professors have towards my learning. Cornerstone is a smaller sized college in terms of student numbers, so I have less people in my classes and more connection with the professors. Lastly, I have appreciated the students around me and in my degree. The people that attend Cornerstone have displayed nothing but politeness and positivity to me. However, I will be honest in why Cornerstone was given a 4 star rating. Their core curriculum classes have much more weight than most colleges possess, and many degrees struggle to fit in all of the credits for 4 years with the curriculum classes. Overall, I still believe that Cornerstone is a good fit for many, and I recommend!... Read 715 reviews

Senior: I really enjoy the environment at Grand Valley State University. It is such a secluded campus giving it a rural feel. It also feels very safe and welcoming. I have loved my time at this school. I have had great professors, joined fun clubs and have met wonderful people. Grand valley also offers great help and guidance with academics through tutoring resources and helpful advisors. I have really enjoyed the promotion of diversity and inclusion at this campus as well. This campus also is beautiful and has great features such as a large fitness center and an amazing library! This school is one that I would recommend to all as I have had some of the best years of my life. Grand Valley always promotes student involvement through sporting events, clubs and events. The only issue with the campus is the parking, but GVSU has a great bus system! Overall, Grand Valley is not just a great school, but it is also a welcoming place for all people....
