Adrian College is only worth it for the faculty that put their heart and souls in it for the success of their students. Its a lot of money for mediocre facilities. Tuition goes up each year. Programs are threatened to be cut what seems like every year, and promises made to incoming students have the likelihood of being docked halfway through their degree. Many of the higher staff that are not professors don't seem like they actually care about the students. To the administration, you are just a number.

Adrian College is the main superior place where I do not feel obligated to socialize with other classmates on campus. In high school, peers would enhance of bullying me and shoving me into the lockers because a friend of their group was making up lies about something I never did. Here, everybody respects you to the finest. No fights; No problems.

I love attending Adrian college! There are many opportunities for me at Adrian. Having such small classes you do grow a bond with the facility. All the professors are friendly and want you to succeed. We have a big fandom for hockey instead of football at our school but we support all the sports teams. I love being on such a small campus. You get to know the workers personally and always see someone you know when you step out of your room. The food isn't the best at Adrian, but it could be worse. There have been requests to change the food company. Overall, I absolutely love Adrian college and I am so happy I picked Adrian college!

Overall Adrian is pretty good. The students and staff are all welcoming and the campus is amazing. The faculty are easy to talk with and are always willing to help with any questions about financial aid, classes, student activities, and more. The classes are all relatively small in size and the professors are always willing to help with anything.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    This is sort of brainstorm writing, no organization, I'm writing as it comes to me. One thing I notice is that college students find themselves at college, everyone knows that. But a high school student needs to analyze themselves before going to college, if you try to find yourselve earlier, you can find where you best fit. Education levels vary from school to school, but they aren't all that different, unless your deciding between Harvard and Eastern Michigan University, the education levels won't be too far apart. So what i believe is important is to find a school where you can feel you are most attracted to. A school where you believe you will gain the most knowledge as well as have the most fun. Half of college is education, the other half is being away from home, learning to live on your own, and learning to socialize and interact. If you attend a school you don't enjoy, you may still get the education you dreamed of, but you will miss on half of the experience.

They also claim to ask the students about issues, even though we find out later that they have already made up their minds.

  8. What kind of person should attend this school?

    A hard working, athlete who devotes most his time to sports and school. It isn't all that bad here, but the social life isn't thriving, it is an all athlete school and people normally from groups with their teams. So you really have to love the sport you play because it has to fill the gap that forms from a lack of social life.
