Kalamazoo College

Wasted 4 years of my life attending this FRAUD of an “academic institution.” Save your time, energy and money by going somewhere else.

Don’t come here. Not sure why everyone praises professors when most of them are either rude or completely incompetent. At least half of my business professors barely speak English. Not worth the expensive price tag. Athletics will benefit nothing in your future. Sit this school out. Trust me. You wont be able to transfer credits anyway ?

DO NOT GO HERE. This college has fewer students than my high school. The size of the campus is literally the same as a parking lot at Michigan State. The moment you step off campus you enter a crime ridden neighborhood. No one has ever heard of this college! Even employers in Michigan have no clue what K College is. Sad!

I went into this college with an open mind and to say the very least, I was disappointed.

Profs & some departments are excellent, but nothing else sets K apart. Its facilities are in disrepair, nothing’s maintained, there are numerous safety/health concerns (e.g. constant food poisoning), & it’s highly inaccesible. Financial aid given is a joke. It’s hard to see where the obscene amount of $ they charge even goes.

School high key sucks. Met some great life long friends here and and also had some good and caring professors but most people will not enjoy their time here.

DO NOT COME HERE. This school lures you in with scholarship money and traps you with tuition hikes and non-transferable credits. The food is absolutely inedible, the dorms are borderline unlivable, there is barely any diversity, unpredictable wifi, it's tiny, and there's nothing to do in Kalamazoo. The only redeeming quality are the professors.

admin sucks. facilities are incredibly run down. Much more of a high school feel. Very limited opportunities and everyone I know who has graduated struggles to do anything with their degree.

Unfortunately I had a very negative experience at K. As a natural science major, I found that most of my classes focused on having a cutthroat weed out mentality. The teaching is unimpressive and is not what you pay for. Not a well rounded college experience. The school is not nearly as diverse as it claims to be. Glad I transferred.

Went downhill fast after COVID. Some might argue it's "too" liberal and many would agree (even the minorities like myself). Definitely need some personal motivation to get out of here because the registrar and other "helpful" departments would try to trip you in every single way. Advisors and subject departments are almost always helpful though.
