Eastern Michigan University

Avoid this "college" at all costs. The University of Michigan is 5 minutes away and is, by far, a better choice. Then there's Michigan State, also far superior to eastern in every way. If you're broke or desperate consider Western or Central Michigan University. Better parties, non commuter campus, lack of a crumbling infrastructure. The list goes on and on. They even have some cute girls (something eastern lacks). It's sad knowing my "degree" from eastern will never let me make more than 50K a year and sends up a red flag to any potential employer. A suggestion to those in high school with poor grades who are thinking they have no choice but to go to this place: go to a community college for your basic credits, keep the grades up, and join any clubs they offer. You'll save a lot of cash, as eastern is also overpriced. Then simply transfer to a real college. In all honesty, everyone I know who does not attend eMu does not think of this place as a reputable institution and never even considered going there. And don’t even get me started on the performance of the “athletic” teams at this trash heap…
