What Students Are Saying

Branch out and try to meet and get to know people. Or get involved in a campus club or organization to meet some knew people. And make connections with those who sit near you in class and your professors. Learning is much more enjoyable when you have someone to do it with and when you actually feel a connection to those around you on campus. You feel a sense of pride in your school when you make such connections and you could make a lifelong friend.

don't think it's a slack off school. grand rapids community college is hard work. this school is a school that wants you to succeed in what you want to do.
Isabelle from Grand Rapids, MI
GRCC to me was a backup if I didn't get the required ACT score needed for the bigger colleges, so I recommend to obtain an ACT score of at least a 26 to get scholarships of course. If you're planning to go to GRCC, plan ahead in your mind that college is a whole other playing field of difficulty to pass the classes with an A because the high school habits may still linger on you so shake them off especially if you're a procrastinator...DON'T SLACK OFF on your classwork, you're paying for your classes; one chance to get A's. Otherwise it'll be trial and error until you learn to do better in your classes the first time around.

Speaking with the advisors on a regular basis is a smart thing to do. If you're determined to study, they can help you create a clear plan for your college career. Teachers will also be glad to help you if you take the time to ask them for help.

Get to know your instructor a bit. It makes the classes more exciting.

Also, plan on having trouble finding a parking spot for at least the first few weeks. However, the bus comes right to the campus so it's easy to get where you're going through the bus system.

Come to Grand Rapids Community with a open mind, it's just like a normal college. Everybody there are so helpful. The first semester might be hard but there are people who can help you get through it, like your academic counselor.
Cierra from Rockford, MI
Be kind and courteousness to the staff and your peers classes are fun and exciting and most of all be wiling to learn
Aaron from Rockford, MI
Pick out your classes early, and make sure you ask questions, teachers are more than willing to go over things with you. Also try to buy your books used and also rent them, saves a lot of money in the long run!
