Kat from Elkhart Lake, WI
Awsome online classes and support for students.
Barbara from Lakewood, WI
Lakeland is a great place for students who prefer one on one time with teachers. There are so many activities on campus that you do not notice we are in the middle of a cornfield. The atmosphere is incredible and I could not have picked a better school.
Alyssa from Waterford, WI
Lakeland college is awesome; there are activities, athletics, and academics. The staff of the school makes the experience that much better with their small class sizes and increased one-on-one time. I would suggest this school for anyone looking to have fun, learn, and meet great people.
Aimee from Algoma, WI
Coursework is challenging--good information to prepare a student for the postcollegiate world. Most professors are good, but-like any school--there are some who don't know how to teach (even if they know their subject).
