REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingMy biology class had many interactive lab projects and we gathered information form outdoors and around the lab itself. That class gives you more information to learn and helps you understand plants, animals and all other living creatures better. My French teacher is successfully helping me learn my third language in a smooth efficient way.
Rachel from Redford, MI
the university of michigan-dearborn provides a superior quality education from a well known college yet close enough to home you can save the expense of living in a dorm and graduate without excessive debt. the small class size allows for more direct assistance from your professor and closer connections with classmates. the campus is safe, appealing, diverse and easy to get around.
Jessica from Livonia, MI
UMD is a great place to learn. For students unsure about which path their futures should take, the university provides a wide range of assistance, from the Career Services program to each college's cooperative education programs to each department's advisors. Each method helps the student find his or her own path to success.
For those ready to learn, students will find they will get what they give: if a student puts in the effort, he or she will learn, but a student who simply goes through the motions will suffer. Even for both types of students, the go-getters and the lazies, every professor I've had has been more than willing to meet with students outside the scheduled office hours.

David from Warren, MI
In my first month here, I've been given an in-depth approach to how to apply things I learned in high school to real-world applications.
Stephen from Detroit, MI
UofM is one of the top schools in the nation for academics. I intend to major in Information Technology or Computer Engineering and this school has an excellent college of engineering and other schools.
Christopher from Wayne, MI
Great college, real experienced professors
Mark from Center Line , MI
I feel that this is a great school! You get a Michigan degree for a fraction of the price! Only complaint is student life, it sometimes doesn't really feel like a college campus that way U of M Ann Arbor or MSU do.
David from dearborn, MI
The campus is beautiful. The class sizes are small. The people here are VERY friendly.
Manal from Dearborn, MI
The web page is incorrect. There WILL be on-campus housing for students enrolling for the fall of 2013. Here is a link for more information: http://www.umd.umich.edu/housing .
Jessica from Sterling Heights, MI
I thought the professors were great overall. I had one I disliked a lot because he couldn't explain things very well at all. The others were very knowledgeable, especially Professor Ryder for Music History. She was amazing. She knew what she was talking about.
