Senior: At Madonna University, I had the ability to transfer 3 years of classes from a community college. The faculty at the school made the transition seamless. The advisors and financial aid office help answer whatever questions you have and make sure you are headed down the right path. As most universities, Madonna may seem expensive. The only problem I've had is that the school has limited scholarships that you can be available for. If I could change one thing, that's the only thing I would fix. Overall, I'm excited to say I get to graduate from Madonna!... Read 527 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 2,156 reviews

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 999 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

Freshman: Siena Heights University has provided me with an amazing experience so far. 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

Sophomore: I'm a fifth year student at NCMC. This means I've been taking their online classes alongside my high school classes for the past two and a half years -- for free! It's been a great experience and my college advisor has been extremely helpful with getting the classed I want and need. This year will be full time on campus, and I'm looking foward to it!...
