"The pros of the MSU law program is that it provides a lot of resources for students to grow as a law student and future practicing lawyer. It has an academic success program that provides an opportunity for students struggling with the first year classes to get extra help and more one on one practice questions and tutoring sessions. Along with this, the law school provides several law clinics such as small business law clinic, immigration law clinic, housing clinic and many more. Through these clinics students get a hands on experience with interviewing clients and case handling. Along with the pros, the cons of Msu law program is that it does not provide enough school based scholarship opportunities for second and third year students. As students take more credits during these years it would be very helpful to be given an opportunity with scholarship awards based on application and not just grades."

"The pros of my graduate program is that I have made a strong connection with faculty and friends within the graduate school for networking opportunities. The cons of my graduate program is that African American and African Studies (AAAS) is only a program, not a department."

"The faculty is comprised of well-known and well funded members. All are willing to help with any questions you may have. The area does not have a well developed social scene for graduate students and young professionals."

"There are unlimited options as a law student and many opportunities to thrive in different areas of law. The main cons are the costs of living and the overall burdens of having to live off loans. I can't express how grateful I would be to find some assistance for this."

"Michigan State offers a competitive, yet friendly program. The faculty and staff really want students to succeed and are willing to go out of their way to make you the best possible physician. The East Lansing campus is very large, which allows for many different things to do around campus and provides a large diversity of students. While the campus is big, the doctoral classes are all in one small area, so you never feel lost. The school really becomes your family and I wouldn't have chosen another school looking back on my choices!"

"Pros: Great educational and working environment within the veterinary hospital. All of the clinicians and staff were very open and knowledgeable. The campus is beautiful and is kept very clean. The surrounding area around the campus is very nice and there are a lot of activities to do and easy access to everything. The area surrounding it is also very dog friendly! Everyone working on campus always smiled and said hello! Cons: Parking on campus is very expensive. Having more computers in the hospital would make a students life easiter. Vet star was not a fun program to work with."

"As an aspiring public health student, the program offers a chance to explore the field. Most of the coursework for this particular major is on-line, making it easy to work while studying. On the other hand, the program is not yet accredited."

"Pros: The Professor's are all very approachable with few exceptions. I do not feel like the program is overwhelming. Living nearby the school is reasonable. Cons: Winters are very snowy and very cold for walking to class. The advocacy class takes a lot of time your first year but isn't given much weight. Parking by the school is very expensive."

"The Social Work program at MSU offers a very suportive environment. Additionally, Lansing offers the opportunities of an urban area without the high cost of living, MSU is a large school, however and it can be easy to feel like you're missing out on the attention you would receive in a graduate program with smaller class sizes. Over all, though, it's easy to network within your cohort and the majority of professors and staff are very supportive."
