"One of great aspects about the program is that they offer night classes and can work while going through the program. EMU is very affordable and the professors in the counseling program are very knowledgeable in their areas of expertise."

"This program works around my busy schedule and provides me with current research and material that will benefit me in the real world. It is very much making me feel comfortable going out into the world to meet with clients one day."

"The program is just ok. The teachers have not been very good, and, with the exception of one teacher, have not really put any effort into providing a quality education. Perhaps they are overworked, but we are still paying for these classes and deserve to be treated with respect. The only good thing about my program is that EMU is known as a teaching college, and the marketability of the degree is good."

"EMU has been a great experience for grad school. It caters to the working adult by hosting most graduate classes in the evening. I believe that EMU was the right decision for me!"

"The drama/theatre for the young graduate program is very specialized and is individually catered to our career interests. We are taught by the leading professionals in this field and they are accessible for anything we need. The course material is very relevant and is great use for after our schooling is over."

"In the Higher Education/Student Affairs program there were some kinks and issues that needed to be worked out with the different types of classes. However, the faculty support and peer support is excellent. You can tell that the faculty go above and beyond to help students and to connect one on one with each student."

"I love that I decided to attend Eastern. It is such a great school, with friendly and helpful staff. It's very evident that all the faculty and professors want you to do well and succeed. The coursework wasn't overwhelming or too complicated to understand. The online format and course shell is very self-explanitory and they have many tools and places you can go with any questions or concerns you may have. All of my classmates were so nice and willing to help and answer any questions that I had. I've had nothing but positive and great interaction with my professors as well. I'd say my overall experience was a good one and I look forward to taking more online classes at Eastern in the future."

"I really enjoy going to Eastern. First off, it's a beautiful campus. Second, I feel very at home at EMU. People are very kind and friendly. There are numerous clubs and groups that you can join in order to meet new people and get involved on campus. I personally joined a sorority and am very impressed by the Greek community. Furthermore, I have really enjoyed my classes. The teachers, at least the ones I have had, are very knowledgeable about their subjects and willing to help. I am also a part of the Honors college at Eastern and love my honors classes. The teachers work very closely with you and the small classroom size makes it very easy to get to know people in your class. Honors classes can be difficult because they are a bit more work but are very manageable."

"At Eastern Michigan University, there is no such thing as boredom. The fun is here. If you ever get stressed out, need a break from work, or lazy, Eastern Michigan university is the place to spend that time. You will never get bored, an event happens every day. The locations for the events are always close by and free stuff is always given out. From video games, to poetry lounges, to Greek life, you will never run out of fun. You will still be able to keep up with all of your instructors and work with how the school is technology based. All the teachers are available right at the push of a button on your computer. The learning never stops. Eastern Michigan University is the only college I want to be at."
