I have really loved my time at Henry Ford College and I have excelled here - maintaining a 3.85-4.0 GPA and ranking in the top 10% of my class, even as an adult learner. However, since they do not offer my degree program of choice, I have to transfer to another college to complete the Library Services and Technology Associate in Applied Science degree.

I will say this, I have gotten some wonderful professors and being a part of the honors program is great. The fact that it is affordable is an amazing thing and I really do love how diverse the college is, both students and professors. The thing is, the handicap accessibility at this campus is really quite terrible. I have been fighting to get accessible buildings and have been met with no effort to change. I have been told it would be too much money, and that I shouldn't really worry about it since I will be out of the college by next semester. It has been infuriating for someone who just wants to be able to go to school and live their life without constant issues with just simply getting into buildings. Well, I guess you get what you pay for :| While I would like to remain anonymous, I do know that if any of you wonderful (not sarcasm I love y'all) HFC Honors people are reading this, I suspect that you will have some clues as to who I am :)

Henry Ford College is definitely a good school beyond my expectations. I am currently a sophomore at the college, but it feels like I have been there for even longer. The atmosphere is always welcoming and there is a nice blend in ethnicity and cultural diversity among the school. The professors are all supportive of their students in academic goals, especially when it pertains to tutoring or necessary improvement on a topic or to obtain the credits, in general. I have never had a professor who wasn't lenient with their class. The extracurricular activities are very nice, as well. I have a joined a few clubs and organizations at Henry Ford and they are astounding. They welcome you with open arms while catering to your comfort zone or with an icebreaker to become well acquainted with your personality. A very exceptional college, indeed.
