This was the worst academic experience that my daughter, every had. The things that she went through was absolutely horrible. I for years a have tried to contact someone over this institution of higher learning regarding my daughter experience. We even traveled back 5 1/ hours from NC to have a meeting with a mediator lady? Have not heard from her since... I told my daughter just chalk it up to a very expensive learning experience, on how the real world at some point in her life operates. Which is very sad.

I did not attend EMU, but my grandson did. He had very bad experiences.... The students were not at all friendly and made my grandson feel out of place. That does not sound like a Christian school to me. Each day it made him more and more uneasy until he eventually became sick with nerves. Then to top it off they said he missed to much time and could not return. I feel they did not do enough to help with this problem. If you don't have money, you have no chance at EMU.

I graduated in '08, and had a great experience here as a student. The professors are knowledgeable and passionate about their fields, and are sincere in their desire to help you succeed. There are lots of ways to connect to the local community, and the location in the Shenandoah Valley is beautiful!

I graduated in 2012. I studied photography and video through Digital Media. The VaCA department is amazing and the faculty are passionate and relatable. They want to see you succeed. Through the cross-cultural program, campus life and thoughtful teaching, EMU was the right place for me after I graduated high school. With the connections and knowledge I gained, I quickly found employment in my field. I wouldn’t have my current career without EMU. I recommend visiting! It’s a beautiful place.

There are high quality professors here at EMU! Just talked with an EMU alumnus last week who recently finished up his master's degree and found a job in mechanical engineering. He felt that that his time here helped him transition into grad school and beyond. As for campus life, I've been able to find amazing people to surround myself with. There are also so many leadership opportunities outside of the classroom. Professors are looking for leaders and will gladly support you along the way if you decide to take on the challenge! Last semester, I had the awesome opportunity to travel abroad to India. This trip changed my life and broadened my world perspective. These semester cross cultural experiences are golden and I'd highly recommend going on one!
