GVSU is a great university with plenty of opportunities. However, they have started a "next Grand Valley" promotion which is emphasizing all the construction in progress on campus. It seems to many students that have been there for awhile that they have now become secondary to the "new, improved, campus." Otherwise GVSU is great for academics. If you are looking for a great off campus scene, the university is surrounded by cornfields. If you want downtown action, you have to drive 20 min to downtown Grand Rapids. There is really nothing within walking distance of the campus itself. Many students see this and go home every weekend, but the campus is starting to work on retaining this students for the weekends.
