Spring Arbor University Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Spring Arbor University? Why?

Joe

The fact that I just transferred to the school. This is the worst thing because I feel very lost and the feeling of starting all over, building connection over again, meeting new friends, getting use to the different environment, the feeling of isolation and the overall transistion in general.

Amanda

I don't think our school does a good enough job of integrating transfer students, and or off campus students with the main body. There are all sorts of awesome community and group events if you come in as a freshman that help you become a part of the body, and feel included. However, it is more difficult if you transfer in, because you are not a part of a small "Core group" that does things together, and encourages one another. You also miss out on the Cross Cultural Trip requirement if you transfer in later than Sophomore year.

Jasmin

There's really nothing bad about my cool. I enjoy it a lot.

Chelsea

The worst thing about my school is the cost of attending there. I know a lot of people that would love to go to Spring Arbor but the cost of tuition makes that nearly impossible. Tuition costs are even affecting whether or not I can attend all four years.

Ashley

The worst thing about SAU would probably be that there are never any delays or days off during bad winter weather. It is a small campus where you have to walk everywhere and it is difficult in the winter.

Kaitlin

Spring Arbor University has many strengths, however, it also has some weaknesses. The greatest problem with attending SAU is the finicial burden. Because this is a private school, tuition is very high. The school does offer a great amount of financial aid, but that can only get you so far. I feel that finance problems are the biggest reason people have to leave or choose not to attend SAU.

Emilee

The worst thing at this school is the cost. The sticker price is shocking, and financial aid is decreasing.

Erin

people need to learn to lighten up and enjoy the little things in life. it should be ok for someone to walk around in an animal costume without getting strange looks. people at spring arbor are afraid to be different sometimes and they need to learn to have a little fun even if its strange.

Stephanie

The worst part about Spring Arbor has nothing to do with the school. The school resides in a small township named Spring Arbor Township. The only thing that is truly in this township, would be the University. When looking for a place to go and get off campus for bit, there is nothing close by. However, find an upper classmen with a car, taking a trip to Jackson could be in the works.

Steve

I have just begun my education at Spring Arbor University, my first impression is that I am very impressed. The adult learning environment is centered around an inspired productive process. For me personally at this time, as the father of five children, I find the cost of tuition will be challanging. The college is structured and staffed in a matter where the student's time is able to be solely focused on education, the staff has made logistics flow seemlessly. This structure is necessary as an adult learner and will be justly expensive.
