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.
Matthew
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.
Sarah
I am not sure there is anything unique about it. I have not attended any other schools that I could compare it to.
Yasmin
We are mostly very hard working middle to lower-middle class students who are often working one or more jobs to support ourselves.
Amy
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.
Thomas
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.
Elizabeth
Programs offered are unique. Contains accredited school programs such as dietetics, the program that I am in.
Rachel
I only considered Eastern Michigan because they have a great college of education, and thats the field I'm going in to.
Patrick
I came to EMU for a specific professor.
Ian
Close to home for me but still gives college town feel.
Megan
It is very diverse.
Brandi
What's unique about my school compaed to other schools I considered is the online class offering in conjunction with the different campuses located in the area.
Myranda
We are a fairly big school but it has a small college feel to it. I love walking across campus and being able to see a lot of people that I know.
Autumn
The programs that are offered have accredidation in some area which allows you to become better off after you graduate.
Tramaya
It's more of a commuter school, but in the classrooms, there is a welcoming feeling, and everyone is friendly and eager to help out.
Ryan
Large campus/lots of courses, with lower student:faculty ratio.
Ashley
There is nothing really unique that stands out
Jennifer
Eastern was smaller, making it easier to learn the campus and feel at home.
Amanda
The professors are really well qualified, but they really seem to care about the students. They're really accessible.
