Eastern Michigan University Top Questions

It's unique to me because it's located near my family who I don't live near anymore because my immediate family moved out of state.

We are a big name college in a small name town. Nobody knows the city of Ypsilanti, but when you tell them you attend EMU, they recognize it.

I am not sure there is anything unique about it. I have not attended any other schools that I could compare it to.

We are mostly very hard working middle to lower-middle class students who are often working one or more jobs to support ourselves.

Even though it is a large university with almost 20,000 people attending, the classes are small and individual attention from the professors is a normal thing.

Eastern Michigan University is primarily a commuter school. Students from all walks of life travel as much as 1 1/2 hours to get a quality education from this great university. There is a fantastic bew student center that offers weekly movies as well as many of your favorite restaurants. Campus is very easy to navigate seeing you can walk from one end of campus to the other in 15 minutes.

Programs offered are unique. Contains accredited school programs such as dietetics, the program that I am in.

I only considered Eastern Michigan because they have a great college of education, and thats the field I'm going in to.

I came to EMU for a specific professor.

Close to home for me but still gives college town feel.
