I am at the satellite campus in Dowagiac Michigan and I love the availability of On-line classes that work with my schedule. I love the Dual Enrollment with Southwest Michigan College that allows less expenisve tuition for the same education. Being at the satellite campus has allowed me to continue to work full time and work on my degree full time. They definately cater to the Non Traditional students at the satellite campus. Ferris has done everything to make my experience a good one. Not to mention a quick process to obtain my Bachelors Degree.

That I am close to home and can commute to and from campus thirteen miles and live at home (saves money this way).
