I attend Kendall College of Art and Design @ Ferris State University. It's a small off-shoot of Ferris, located in Grand Rapids Michigan. It is small and not like typical universities. You do not get the "typical" college experience at KCAD.

At Kendall College of Art and Design the students express themselves not only on paper and canvas but in their every day life styles. They're not afraid to be who they are....pink hair, funky outfits, all of it. This is important as an artist, to express one self, without judgement or ridicule. The studio classes really allow students to think through projects and bring them to life either on paper or in one of the many labs available to students...there's even a 3D printer...how cool is that! I enjoy the laid back atmosphere with Kendall.

I think that our school is unique in it's acceptance. We have many different clubs/organizations that attend to anyone's personality. Our staff is incredibly diverse as well as our student body. I'm proud of the acceptance I see on my campus daily.

The thing that is most unique about Kendall College of Art and Design is that the classes are very small. All the classes pertaining to my major are less then 15 students. Which allows for such an amazing learning environment the professors are very approachable and easily available even during class periods. The classes are also 3.5 hours long which allows for a lot of time to work with the professors help and to apply what the professor taught at the beginning of class.

It is a personal environment that the proffesors take time to spend with the individual.

I go to Kendall College of Ferris State which allows me the opportunitites to have a very specific field of study, while being able to have the advantages of a universities diverse curriculum. Other schools I had considered were strictly art schools, but with the connection to Ferris, I am able to utilize all aspects of both a private art school and a public university. Whether it be for trips, scholarships, or even just experiences, my school has a very unique environment.

I attended Kendall College of Art and Design, or Ferris State University. This school is unique because it is not a private art school. It has lower tuition because it is a part of Ferris State University. Kendall College has a beautiful campus that is expanding, and the falculty who are really invested in their students as people, their well being, academics, and future. They are all well educated and experts in their field, whether it be sculpture, drawing, philosophy, or mathmatics. Kendall College also offers a wide range of classes and I received an excellent education from them.

Ferris is very diverse and the people that attend are friendly and very willing to lend a helping hand. Ferris is a very compassionate school.

Small town, but close enough to travel to a large town (Grand Rapids)
Friendly, personable

Ferris State University is unique in that it offers bachelors degrees through the college of Technology. This is unique in that you can get degrees in welding technology, automotive engineering technology, etc. It offer the opportunity for degrees tht are both acedemic and hands on. FSU is also unique in that it is a medium size state school in a very small midwestern town. It is a relaitvely large campus in a rural area.
Gabriel
The location of this school is very unique compared to the other schools I considered when considering a nursing school. It was quite a culture shock when I first moved down here but I am enjoying my experiences down here. I grew up in a military family and as I was growing up we moved around a lot as a result, but I have always been fond of interacting with new cultures and understanding how they work. I am enjoying my time down here, especially the food and the proximity to the beach.
Aubrey
The school I chose to go to is unique and different from the other schools that I applied to because of its raw artisitic talent, strong work ethic and diverse student population. The skill and success in the work done here is inspiring while the work ethic of the school and its students is expressed through the work. Another unique atribute is the students that are local as well as students that come from around the world, and their different perspectives are special and appreciated.

Ferris State University has a multitude of resources and great people. The student?s are friendly, the staff provide great classroom environments and this school has a positive atmosphere. Ferris is not what you would call a big university, with a total walking distance from end to end of 15 minutes, you can be late and still be on time. It?s great, and you can?t say that about most other large campuses across America. With beautiful scenery and an ever changing weather schedule this school has pleased me.
Samantha
It's a small community, and everyone seems to be really nice. I love the campus and the acitivities there are to do there. I would recommend Ferris to my friends, its a good learning enviroment and the people are awesome and so are the professors.
Kathleen
I think the school is unique because of its location in Central Michigan. It is a fairly large school in a town of only about 12,000 without students. The town doubles with the students. I think that Ferris State University makes the town who they are, which makes it very unique.
Cara
small town and many fulbright scholar professors
Cara

Eric
I didn't really consider any other schools.
tmnit

Kelly
There are a lot of really unique programs and majors such as PGM, Pharmacy, Music Industry Management, Plastics, and so many others. The professors here are all characters in their own way, and mostly every one of them will be one of the best professors you've ever had. If not, they will at least make you laugh! This campus can be whatever you want it to be. If you want a close intimate Community College experience, it could feel like that. Then, if you get involved, it could seem like a much larger campus. I absolutely love it.
