GRCC is a great diverse college filled with plenty of opportunities for those of all ages. Not only does GRCC teach their students, but they support their student with resources, 1 on 1 advising, opportunities, several of clubs & organizations, free access to several local/national conferences, as well as job opportunities with just a certificate.

I'm really glad I chose GRCC. I love my classes, the professors are outstanding and the campus is easy to navigate even though it is rather spread out.

This is a great school with great professors. Lots of credits that transfer to other schools as well. GRCC has wonderful academic programs (nursing, dental, xray, etc.) and I honestly feel lucky we have this gem right in our city.

Just an amazing school located in the fast growing city on the west side of Michigan. It's very clean and the school has a lot of heart. Love this place and very proud to call myself a student.

I'm only taking online classes because I hold a full-time job and have two kids who are active in sports. Some of these options don't apply to me, but I do see them offered, so I gave them 5s. This place has been amazing, and the flexibility offered with online classes has allowed me to finally work towards my degree.

A very underrated school where students are able to get the same experience as any four year university but at a cheaper cost.

Loved my time at GRCC and now that I transferred I really miss it. If youre active youll definitely get some of that college experience. Small number of clubs but very active and I made life long friends there. Lots of opportunities for work study and great professors. Art n bevs all the way for lunch!

It's an amazing school! great faculty and the coolest staff! students are more private here than universities but it wasn't difficult to make some really good friends.
Overall 4.6
I love this school and the professors. My love for education was lost in high school, and it was found again at GRCC. There are so many opportunities for students to get extra help, and there are so many opportunities to grow as an individual through clubs and student involvement. I've built a lot of confidence here, and I always feel welcome.
