Walsh College one of the best colleges in Michigan for Business. It is hard school to graduate from, but it will benefit you after!. So it is worth all the hard work you do. It has the best faculty members. they all are caring and willing to help the students. I love this college and the connection I made with other students.

I'm very happy with my decision to attend Walsh. It is challenging, but you grow as student as you progress. Some people may think it is too small, but because it was small I got the opportunity to do a lot things that I may not of at a big state school. At the end of the day Walsh is what you make of it. I made the most of it.

I am very happy with my choice to pursue my masters degree at Walsh. The college has a great reputation and offers convenient class options for working professionals. The Troy campus is great, especially with all of the recent renovations and updates. Beautiful campus with great amenities. Advising/Student relationships need improvement.

Walsh isn't a business school, other than the business of taking your money. This is a school built on Accounting and Accounting ONLY. The professors are great but do NOT care about your GPA and will admit that very few A's can be earned because of "politics". The favorite punch line at Walsh is "its easy to get in but impossible to get out"

One of the worse college to graduate from with no job placement and no local business owners or management in BIG 3 like this school, because of its reputation. Professors and programs here keep changing like something else every semester and you can not do anything but to take more classes in order to graduate since the program changed! BEWARE.
Overall 1.1
Easy to get in... unless you are an accountant almost impossible to get out! Even the teachers like to tell us "Walsh is Easy to get into but hard to Graduate from" they are proud of that! Some classes have a total of 200 pts per class... you have one bad day and your failing!!!
Overall 1.1
16 weeks worth of work crammed into 11 weeks with no regard given to workload at all! If you like doing well (A-B) don't expect that at Walsh
Overall 1.2
It's not worth the money. Go to U of M, Oakland U., Mich State, Wayne State, U of D, Eastern Mich for about the same price, and they have better standings and academics than Walsh. The other schools won't ditch your program on you when you are half way through either.

good education , poor prospects

Unless you are a CPA don't go to walsh. I have learned very little about business and I'm about to graduate with my BA. The only people at the job fairs offered by walsh are accounting firms so if again you arn't a CPA don't go to walsh... no business in business!

Do yourself a favor and take your student loan to another college. Grades are subjective.
