There is not a set type of person that you have to be to attend Michigan State. Being such a big school, we have more opportunities for people of all kinds to be themselves and also find out the person that they want to be.

Anyone who is intimidated by a big school with a large amount of people should probably not consider attending MSU. Also, athletics and sporting events are a significant part of student life at Michigan State, so while an interest in sports isn't vital to attending MSU, it is definitely an added element to your experience as a student.

I do not feel there is a particular type of person that would not fit in somewhere here. This is a very big university

The type of person who should or should not attend Michigan State University can not be exactly pinpointed. It depends on the individual's personality, the type of environment they were raised in, and their ability to adjust to change. It is difficult adjusting and getting acclimated to college life at any university. At MSU in particular, freshmen may feel largely intimidated by the large campus and number of students. However, I would encourage shyer/more reserved students to still consider attending MSU because it can provide them with a chance to step outside of their comfort zone.

A very shy, homebody should not attend this school. It is a vast campus, that can be made small, but maybe not small enough for a very shy person. Otherwise there is really no person who should not attend. You make your experience however you'd like it.
Holly
The kind of person that shouldn't attend this school is someone who is not into a large campus and walking long distances. MSU is one of the largests campus in the US so it can take a lot of time and energy to reach one side of campus to the other. People who like small classrooms and more attention from the instructors probably wouldn't benefit from MSU since many classes contain more than 100 students.
Alison
Someone that is not willing to put in an effort to achieve success should not attend MSU.
Ryan
Anyone who grew up a fan of the University of Michigan. Other than that, this school is great for just about everyone, as there are so many opportunities to go out and get involved and otherwise just have a great time. However, the campus is large, so I suggest to those who who prefer not to walk too far to class and refuse to buy a bus pass, this campus would not be for you.
Ashley
An outgoing and involved person would fit best in this school and find the opportunities to grow here. The more open-minded and driven person who wants to inspire and make a difference is the type of person that would find happiness here . Additionally though a person who has probably not lived in a big city or culturally diverse place would be more comfortable due to the general population economic and ethnic backgrounds.

I think some one who wants a small school should not come Michigan State. The campuse it some what big but it is not huge. I also think some one who wants only small classes shouldn't go here. There are some small classes but most of your classes that you take in the first two years are large lecture hall classes.
