Wait, what?

Many of you may be thinking, I thought for sure Ferris was in BIG Rapids. I have great news for you- Ferris State University is in both Grand Rapids AND Big Rapids! In fact, Ferris has numerous locations throughout the state of Michigan that offer students a chance to become a bulldog and pursue a Ferris degree right where THEY live. Our off-campus locations are typically partnered with the local community college and working to create degree plans that allow students to take advantage of incredible community college tuition rates and quality instructors along with our career focused Ferris classes.

Not all students have the opportunity to go away to college and Ferris recognizes that. We are so confident in the strength of our programs, our knowledgeable faculty and staff, and the connections we work hard to maintain in our local communities, we want to offer the advantages of a Ferris degree to anyone who is willing to pursue it. From Traverse City to Dowagiac, from Wayne County to Grand Rapids and beyond, there is a local Ferris campus nearby. We also understand that a college education may not have been an option when high school came to a close and you might be thinking it's just too late for you. Know this- it is NOT too late. Many of our students are nontraditional students who have jobs, family and other responsibilities to tend to while they pursue their degree. Our evening, weekend and online classes make it possible to create a flexible schedule that fits into your life.

If a quality education, affordable tuition, available faculty and staff, and a highly competitive degree sound like something you are interested in, why don't you come check us out? You CAN earn your bachelor's degree from Ferris State University right here in Grand Rapids and we invite you to come meet our program advisors and staff to find out how we can get you headed toward that degree you thought was out of reach.
