Saginaw Valley is a beautiful, small campus that has everything to offer that a large university does without the large crowds. Class sizes are small and professors take the time to get to know their students making you more than just a number. There is something for everyone on campus and it once you are there it is the greatest home away from home.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Do not skip a class unless you are really sick and always let the professor know you wont be there so that they can get you the notes. Make atleast one friend in every class so that if you do miss you can get notes and so you have a study buddy, Go to office hours and ask for extra credit professors do understand that you have other classes.
