Michigan State University — Attraction in East Lansing

I wrote a very detailed review of why this place is garbage but lost it when I accidently refresed so here's the main points:

1. Geared towards profit, not for actually teaching, with huge class sizes. Many classes are taught more by overworked TAs than the professors. Not that a lot of professors know how to teach anyways.
2. Commuting students are placed at a huge disadvantage, with most student activities and plenty of exams ending after the campus bus stops running at 7pm. Which wouldn't be that big of an issue, if commuters didn't pay $100+ for the privilege of being allowed to park on the one lot as far from the core of the campus as possible.
3. Classes are practically structured to give disabled students as much trouble as possible. There's a huge emphasis on timed tests. I've asked one professor about extended time limits because I have an anxiety disorder, he lied to me and said that wasn't possible, so I didn't bother filing for accommodations until it was too late. Also there's only a few actual desks at the back of the classroom for disabled students, which are often taken up by abled students. The half desks everywhere else definitely aren't suited for writing with tendonitis.
4. Elitism, only a certain amount of credits are accepted from community colleges despite all of my community college classes being VASTLY superior to any at MSU.

Anyways I was a 3.7 GPA student making good progress on my degree despite my disabilities before going here. I would have to retake about half of my classes if I stayed here, and the thought of staying here gives me panic attacks. This year has been a waste of time and money, while I took a huge hit to my mental health. And health in general. I haven't been sleeping well at all. I'm very tired and my depression/anxiety/tendonitis have been boosted due to stress and lack of self care.

Please go somewhere else. And attend community colleges like Jackson College and Lansing Community College as much as possible before university. Maybe find a nice technical college instead because as far as I know all universities...
