My experience at Detroit Mercy has been amazing. I got directly admitted to the traditional BSN program my senior year of high school and is on track to graduate next spring! Detroit Mercy helped me find my goals and dreams. Coming to this school, I found my priorities, my mentor and people to support me. I got accepted into a research program which allowed me to get my tuition paid for and a monthly stipend so I wouldn't have to work part-time and I can just focus solely on my school work. Because of the opportunities I have received at Detroit Mercy, I am pursuing a doctoral degree right after my graduation. I never once thought I could become a doctor in high school. I love my school and after my graduate from my doctorates I plan to become a professor to give back to the school and to teach future generations. All the professors are wonderful here. You get to know your professors and they get to know you.
I believe taking one or two on-line classes along with the rest of your on-campus classes can be a relief at times. It helps to free up some time in a student’s schedule when a student does not have an overwhelming schedule. Labs are not made to do at home, but they sent materials home during the COVID-19 crisis. The most difficult part is keeping up with notes, deadlines, announcements, and class times from classes, while being in the luxury and rowdiness of my own home. The pleasure of having on-campus classes is simple. You can go to class and be aware of all the deadlines and be able to keep up with information. Unfortunately, online learning forces individual work with help only through the exchange of emails. This is often results in less understanding of content. Online learning was handled as best as possible, but content is harder to understand alone. Sometimes, deadlines and assignments are also hard to remember, as well.
The University of Detroit Mercy offers a variety of different academic programs! The student to professor ratio is perfect for getting the right amount of help one on one. The campus is also very safe and beautiful all around!
