I was a commuter student taking pre-nursing classes so I can get into a 2nd bachelor nursing program. I end up going to UDM for the nursing program so I was only at EMU for a year.

I'd say the classes were pretty good but social life SUCKED. And here's my breakdown.

The classes were challenging enough and if work at it, you can get good grades. More than half of the teachers were very helpful. Although there was one who never replied emails, and some teachers were clique and don't seem to like students coming into their office hour/hang-out-with-coworker-hour. But many teachers give you extra credit (i know right, extra credit given in a university, how generous!) I went into the ultra intense 1 year long UDM nursing program feeling very prepared so I'm thankful for the classes I took in EMU.

Social—like, serious, people are antisocial here. I usually am able to make a lot of friends no problem. As the matter of fact, I'm quite popular in many places. But here, it's like, serious. I think I've made like 5 friends as a student (3 more as a tutor/supplemental instructor), and only 1 still communicate with me regularly. Oh and I still communicate with one of my professor, he's a cool dude.

Anyhow, when i tried talking to people they're either bleh or always too busy to do anything with you. Or they just want to go home asap. Some people were flaky as hell too. And so many students are so whiny! about classes too. I mean come on why do u whine about classes that give you extra credit, and teacher let you know exactly what pages to read?!

There weren't many student clubs/organization to choose from either. Tried to do some "green" and volunteer stuff and they screwed me over. Tried to join some video game developing club and people just won't communicate (like they tell me when and where to meet AFTER meeting was over). And I walk around in badass video game shirts only had people comment like twice.

Any how, attend the school if you are only looking for education and don't give a crap about making friends.
