Audrie

A place that wants the students to do well and is centered around the needs of its students.

Sara

It places a bit too much emphasis on athletics, and I wish it was more intellectual. It seems like they are actively making things better though. It's a liberal arts college with a wide variety of majors, minors, and classes. We have the main Allendale campus, as well as the Pew campus in downtown Grand Rapids.

Sara

Our Allendale campus is gorgeous--especially in the fall. The majority of the modern buildings are certified as energy efficient. We're also building a brand new state-of-the-art library! The downtown campus also looks very modern, with it's brick buildings. Both campuses have pretty sweet clocktowers. Also, GVSU puts art in every building, which is really nice.

Grand Valley has a great academic prgram with helpful professors that really, truly care about your success; however, it lacks in the social aspects where other schools excell such as a lack of activities on the weekends, not a party schoolby any stretch of the imagination, and most people leave on the weekends.
