Modern, well-kept facilities, such as fully-stocked classrooms, research labs, and cutting-edge technological resources, are all present on the campus. A useful resource for students' academic endeavors, the library is large and offers access to a wide variety of academic resources.

There is something for everyone, whether they are interested in business, education, engineering, health sciences, or social sciences.

However, the college offers a number of scholarships and financial aid options to help deserving students further their studies.

Taylor - 07/31/2021

I love being a student at U of M Flint, I feel comfortable on campus with all the security, and the student life is the best. The classroom sizes are no larger than 150 so it makes it more personal and easier to learn. We have the flint farmers market one block from the campus that we can go and get food which is a great thing and a lot of students take advantage of it.

Caitlin - 11/25/2020

This is a great commuter school! I wouldn't recommend living on campus but the academics here are great and they genuinely want you to succeed. The professors are very accesible and understanding about life challenges. They provided decent financial aid as well.

  10. Describe your favorite campus traditions.

    U of M-Flint is a sister-school to University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, which is known widley for its innovation, research, and professionalism. U of M-Flint echoes these characteristics successfully. My program of study is pre-pharmacy. I work as a pharmacy tech and talk to pharmacists regularly, and I have found that many of them started at U of M-Flint. This school also has an excellent pre-med program, which has produced the notion that the University of Michigan is one of the best schools in the nation.

  12. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    U of M-Flint is highly goal/hard work oriented. Individuals who are generally unmotivated or lack an appreciation for a higher understanding of academics would have a hard time here. That being said, I would not say any "kind of person" should not attend this school. U of M-Flint is open to all "types" of people; and listening to a brilliant lecture by an over-qualified professor could stimulate one's interest in any given field.
