There is many things that I love about NMU. The major thing that really drew me in his how much everyone cares about your success. There is tutoring services for every class. If you every need help there is somewhere you can go to get it. Before I attened NMU I visited other school around the area.

A great aspect of Northern Michigan University is its intelligent and incredible faculty, especially within the art department. The professors that I have been privledged to know have been supportive and understanding. They are quick to offer advice and are eager to guide their students on their educational journeys. They go above and beyond their basic duties in order to guarentee students and satisfactory experience and a full education.

The size of the campus and classes. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do when I first started, and being able to choose a variety of classes helped me narrow that down. Smaller class sizes helped me connect with my professors in a way that I don't think would be possible at a larger school. You are more than just a number and a GPA to them-- you are their student, and they want you to succeed and be happy.

The univeristy has vision and commitment for being a "laptop" university; and, takes the City of Marquette, Michigan, a step forward iby becoming a wireless environment.

I believe that opportunity is the best thing about NMU. There are plenty of options for internships no matter what your major is. The school is also very connected with the Marquette community so students are able to get inolved on several levels, not restricted to school programs. The professors are very helpful and personable as well, which is something I didn't get a lot of at my previous college. Aside from educational opportunity Marquette is a haven for the outdoors. There are countless things to do off campus to provide students with social and recreational fun.

The best thing about Northern Michigan University is the atmosphere and surroundings of the school. The school itself makes you feel comfortable and at home, while Marquette is a great place to enjoy nature. On the weekends your options are not limited to partying and confined to the city life, but you can go hiking, camping, exploring, and many other outdoor activities that allow your mind to relax. Having the ability to enjoy the outdoors while attending a university allows students such as myself to find who they are in the world and obtain an education.

The best thing about NMU is that you are treated as an person and not just a number. There is a family feeling on campas and the people truely care about you. The instructors want to see you succeed and are helpful. There are many groups and organizations to participate in if you choose to do so.

The friendly atmosphere and surrounding scenery. Both make this a wonderful environment to live and learn in.

The location and size are the best things about Northern. It's a medium sized school, with easy access to many parks, forests, and beaches.

Apart from the great academics, the natural environment at Northern is insupassable. There is much to entertain as far as outdoor recreation goes and the school is very active in the area. Students can find great hiking, kayaking/canoeing, cliff jumping, and biking areas literally just out the back door.

The best thing about NMU is the price. I have looked all over the country for a school that compares and haven't found one. The level of education is a high quality, and you won't be swimming in debt when you finally get your degree.

the laidback atmosphere

My university drew itself to me because of the surrounding town, Marquette, Michigan. It is located in the upper peninsula and surrounded by thousands of acres of forests. The city and the people are also beautiful. The city is old and quaint and walking down the street, strangers will say hello and smile. There is a very strong sense of community between the students on campus and the people of the city. The school is medium size and because of the size there are many opportunities for student research and an ability to closely know professors and the administration.
