Overall 4.5
I absolutely LOVE Adrian College. The athletic facilities are amazing. The professors know you by name, are available all the time ( you can just stop by their offices). Class sizes are small. They have tons of housing choices from dorms to houses and apartments. The food is average. Internet is fine. The social life if great. Fun parties.

Beautiful campus, a lot of activities to do.

Adrian is expensive. If I had understood what it would cost to go here, I probably would've chosen a public university instead. Small school (and tiny class sizes) does have benefits. For the most part, your professors care a lot about your education and for you as a person. Some things could be improved (internet, food) but overall it's nice.

I love Adrian. They have great sports programs and fun parties. Some dorms are renovated and some aren't. Droms are selected based on grades and credits. Get good grades and you can get good housing. Food is average but they do offer a counter service where you can get sandwiches and so on - that's good. Small classes are a plus.

If you're interested in accumulating 42k+ worth of debt in student loans from an institution that refuses to acknowledge and empower their minority students, then you're choosing the correct 'liberal arts college.'
Overall 1.3
It is sad that the coaches are the top dogs at the school and not the professors. Everything is sports oriented. Education seems like the recreational activity.
Overall 1.4
I was only there for one semester and heres why I left: parking sucks, feels like high school (drama and all), if you dont party youre nobody, if you dont like sports youre nobody, the food sucks, some of the dorms are updated and some are not, no WiFi like anywhere, overpriced, and the Starbucks isnt real. Its all a cover for visitors.

don't go here
Overall 1.6
Adrian College is not the college to choose if you're looking for that college experience that you see in movies. Its parties are few and far between and basically non existent in the winter semester. Its a school filled with athletes. The food is horrible. I would not suggest to come here unless you live and breath your sport, or an art major.
Overall 1.7
It is okay at best. If it wasn't for the scholarships, I probably would not go here. The school is sports and fraternity-oriented, but as a commuting student, I don't mind and I am not here for "friends". There really aren't any opportunities available, the staff is extremely unhelpful, but I have had some of the best professors since being here
Overall 1.7
I went to this school for a semester. Thinking about it makes me sick. Here's the truth: If you're not in Greek life or in a sport, you're a nobody. If you don't like to party, you're a nobody. The campus is beautiful, but it's all a cover for the reality of the place. They don't care about the safety of the students, just about getting more money.

Friends dont let friends go to Adrian College. If Adrian College had a political affiliation, it would be Communism.
