    Campus Safety

    In the two and a half years that I have attended Schoolcraft College, not once have I felt unsafe. This college has police officers who frequently patrol the campus, as well.
    Greek Life

    The Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society is a wonderful group for students who have a 3.5 GPA or higher. It presents scholarships for transfer students that are only available to its members, gives opportunities for volunteering, hands on experience, and a lifetime of incredible memories.
    Bang for the buck

    I would say that this school deserves every honor of recognition that it gets! It is an affordable option for students, has a very safe campus, challenging classes (in a good way!), and resources that will give you the experience that you need in order to succeed in an academic career.
    What to do for fun

    There are many things to keep a student well-entertained here at Schoolcraft College; there are clubs of every sort, the Lower Waterman of the VistaTech Building hosts many activities, as well as dances, charities, and much, much more.
    Food and Dining

    The cafeteria at Schoolcraft College, Henry's, is spectacular! The staff in the cafeteria are wonderful, as well. Try the mac & cheese when they serve it at 11 o'clock AM--it is to die for.
    Dorm Life

    Schoolcraft College does not currently have dorms on campus.
    Academic Rigor

    Schoolcraft College has many classes that require a student's total dedication, time, and effort, in order to be successful in them. There is an extensive amount of class choices; it is important to pick the ones that you will truly attempt to do your best in, and that will help you reach your career, or academic, goals.
    Tips for prospective students

    My advice to prospective students is to get involved in the thrill that is campus life--there are various clubs to join, activities to participate in, and so many different people to talk to. Take a chance and step outside of your comfort zone, you will not be sorry!
    In three sentences

    Schoolcraft College is an excellent institution for students who wish to experience college with the comfort of more intimate class sizes, or for students who wish to prepare themselves for universities.

    Campus Safety

    Always felt protected never had a problem infact I had to leave my Jeep they once over night but it was intact when I returned to next morning to get it! They do a great job in keeping the campus safe! I would Schoolcraft for any person looking to further their education starting in a smaller college setting, it truly worked for me!

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    They have days where they have hot dogs and chips and you can mingle with both other students as well as the professors and some office staff to get to know them better! They also have science fairs and art fairs which I personally attended and enjoyed.
    Bang for the buck

    Schoolcraft College was very affordable for me and recieving a scholarship helped me as well!
    What to do for fun

    They do have activities on the campus unfortunately, I was unable to participate because of my schedule.
    Academic Rigor

    I earned my place in the Honor Society because I worked very hard working over a 40 hour work week and I took advantage of all the assistance that was afforded to me.
    Tips for prospective students

    First take a tour talk with second year students and ask why they returned to the college. Ask questions about the staff more importantly about the professors; are they willing to help before and after class are tutors available for all courses. And are scholarships available for those who work hard. Being rewarded as a older college student was a feeling like no other- very proud!
    In three sentences

    I attended Schoolcraft College as a older student returning to college and what a wonderful experience it was. The professors' were all very passionate about their craft. They were all very honest and patient in helping me reach my greatest potential there and was the best choice I could have made choosing Schoolcraft College for my A. A. S. as a returning to older college student!

    Traditional, nontraditional, dual enrollment, those seeking training for a career change.
    Bang for the buck

    Excellent value, costs are about 1/3 the cost of attending a 4-year institution, and the first two years of a bachelor's degree are basic liberal art requirements. So why pay the higher tuition when you can save money by getting your first 60+ credits at Schoolcraft, then transfer for your last two years?
    What to do for fun

    Various clubs and organizations you can join if you're interested.
    Food and Dining

    Plenty of choices on-campus for good food!
    Dorm Life

    No on-campus housing, this school is for commuters.
    Academic Rigor

    Just what I was expecting for Freshman-level classes.
    Tips for prospective students

    Save LOTS of money by staying home your first two years and attending Schoolcraft College. Talk to people in your classes to make new friendships. Get to know your instructors by asking appropriate questions and participating in class discussions. Visit the career center for help in researching occupations related to your intended major. Freshman are required to take and pay for a one-credit Study Skills class, no matter what your ACT scores are or your high school GPA. I found out too late that you can avoid this requirement by taking an online class the semester before you start regular on-campus classes. Had I known this before hand, I would have taken an online class the summer between finishing high school and starting college.

    Close to home. Good instructors. Nice campus.

    Go to ratemyprofessors.com before enrolling. There are some really excellent professors, but some aren't as good. Make sure to check out the LAC in the Library for tutoring.

This one has been the best for really teaching me what I want to learn.

    Did you struggle to obtain your high school diploma? Was high school a breeze for you? Or perhaps you were the person who skated by off the kid who sat next to you? If you identify with any of the previously asked questions, Schoolcraft is the right fit for you. With such a wide variety of classes to choose from, Schoolcraft can accommodate any person, at any level, from any place.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    While Great Harvest isn't unusual, how many colleges have the ability to boast a world-class restaurant? Not many. That's the Schoolcraft difference.
    Bang for the buck

    After paying for a semester at a four-year-university with money I'd saved during high school, I knew my bank account was going to run dry. Schoolcraft offers classes at exceptional rates for local residents, and rates nearly as exceptional for those from out-of-state.
    What to do for fun

    Fun is everywhere you look on campus! If you're an athlete, Schoolcraft has a club team you can join. If you want to relax and play video games with friends, Schoolcraft's student activities center is state-of-the-art, and pops free popcorn all day long! Play tennis? Don't become star-struck when you run into Rich Kynast on the courts; the tennis pro runs camps all summer long.
    Food and Dining

    Schoolcraft is home to one of the highest acclaimed culinary arts programs in the country. The campus boasts a student-run restaurant that has seated celebrities, and local congressman, alike. You won't find better 'caf' food than at Schoolcraft, I guarantee it.
    Dorm Life

    If you're looking to live on-campus, unfortunately, Schoolcraft does not offer dorms. However, there are many apartments within walking distance from campus that can be rented by potential students.
    Academic Rigor

    The coursework is manageable, if you are motivated. Professors are more than accommodating, and truly will help you become successful - both academically, and on the streets.
    Tips for prospective students

    If you're debating between attending a four-year university, or a community college first, choose Schoolcraft. Having attended both, I can contest that the attention you receive from professors on campus is far more than you'll ever receive at a university. Not only will you save thousands of dollars, you'll build relationships that will last a lifetime.
    In three sentences

    In all honesty, I never thought I would end up studying at a community college. After spending a semester at a large university, my family and I decided that it would be in my best interest to come home and focus on my studies in a more relaxed atmosphere. I've been at Schoolcraft for three semesters now, and look forward to spending another three working towards my second Associate's Degree.

    Schoolcraft is great for those students who like smaller schools, smaller classroom sizes, would like to have one on one with the professors, and who would like to earn credits that may transfer to a university to further their education, while saving money at the same time. It is also great for those looking to go into the Culinary Arts field.
    Tips for prospective students

    My tips for those prospective students are that they make sure that they are prepared, they work hard at everything they do, and stay focused. They should try not to get side-tracked. Students should also look into what their interests are to try to find out what it is that they want to do in life.
    Bang for the buck

    This school really is a bang for the buck because it is inexpensive. The financial aid I received paid for everything I needed which allowed me to go to school fall and winter semester for free. Students are able to earn credits at a cheaper price, and still get a quality education, while still having all the extracurricular activities, groups, or organizations that students would like to participate in.
    Am enjoying being here

    I enjoy being here because the school is just what I like. It fits what I like in a school, the school is small, it has small classroom sizes, students are able to get one on one with the professor, and students can meet new people and have new experiences everyday just from walking around campus. It has what's called the Vistatech Center, which has the food court, a basement where students can hang out, play games, and watch tv; and upstairs is the American Harvest Restaurant, where the food is prepared by the Culinary Arts students.
    Am learning a lot

    I am learning a lot at Schoolcraft. The professors help to make understanding the material easier. They answer questions students have when they have difficulty getting the concept of the lesson. Students are able to learn a lot because the professors take the time to make sure the students know what they are discussing, to get the material down-packed.

My humanities teacher teaches the same class at Schoolcraft as well as at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. As far as I'm concerned, I am getting the same education as the big name schools. And I am getting it for less money.

    It is a wonderful learning environment. The kitchens are fully equiped with all the latest culinary gadgetry and the class sizes are small. Students get the one on one attention that the crave as well as develop close friendships working in smaller groups.

    As far as the culinary arts program goes Schoolcraft college has one of the best in the country. The staff are friendly, informative, and well trained in field of culinary arts. The school features four Master chefs, a sundry of executive chefs, and numerous sous chefs willing to guide you on the same path that they were on only semesters before.

    Great for these types of students

    Great for students who want to save money, are planning to transfer to University, who prefer small class sizes, who are planning to commute and are career bound.

    Since I am paying for college myself I can honestly and wholeheartedly say that starting off here was the best decision I could have made. I have never payed over a thousand dollars a semester and I go full time (15 credit hours this upcoming Fall). Schoolcraft also offers scholarships, payment plans and other financial assistance but tuition is so inexpensive I haven't needed to seek out any extra assistance to afford it.

    The campus is smaller since Schoolcraft is a community college but it is very welcoming. There are always students and professors walking around, having lunch on the benches or intently studying all over the hallways of buildings. The students range from early high school graduates to mothers and fathers to people over the age of 60. The school offers tons of groups and activities allowing friendships to be built between commuter students from all over the Metro-Detroit area.

    All of the professors I have had are each different from the next. I have had new instructors and less experienced ones. A lot of my professors teach at another institution, have travelled a great deal, are from other countries or have worked in a career previously or while they are teaching. They bring so many fresh ideas to the table.
