Our school is known for our athletics and high academic achievements. GVSU's football team is nationally ranked and brings a great college atmosphere to this wonderful campus. Our campus has been expanding over the past few years and is just spectacular. GVSU's PEW campus in Downtown GR gives students the opportunity to experience city life, a change of pace from the Allendale Campus. The shuttle is very easy to work and is easy for students to take the short 15 minute ride to the GR PEW campus or the short 5 minute ride to your off-campus apartment!

Grand Valley is best known for being a relatively big school with a small athmosphere. It is thought to be a pretty conservative school, with many opportunities to get involved in campus life.

Grand Valley State is best known for its great athletic program, fantastic academic program, and welcoming environment.
Kim
Grand Valley is best known for their academic excellence and their attention to their students. We have exceptional services all around campus that help students with tuition, academic struggles, and almost anything else imaginable. Here at Grand Valley, the professors make an effort to get to know their students. From experience, this has helped me out tremendously. Knowing that my professors want to get to know me shows me that they truly care, and it makes them much more approachable so I can ask them any questions I need to without feeling embarrassed.

Atmosphere is everything at my school. I would say there are no other places like Grand Valley State University. We seem to have all we can hope for, such as a great education program, an awesome gym, many activities to do around campus, the food, and much more. Students know they can have a relaxing time here, and still be able to get work accomplished while enjoying a sweet smoothie from Java City. Seeing for yourself is the only way to truly know what are school is best known for.

The athletics and increasing academic success. Also it's small and diversified. The classroom size holds at least a minimun of 25-30 students so you can have some type of one on one time with the professor if needed!
