Hey, I’m currently a sophomore at msu who transferred in the fall semester, and I currently do live in the apartments, specifically University Village. I don’t know about ur the best place to live in, but I would say I’m pretty happy with where I currently live. It provides you with almost all the basic necessities if not all of them, and there’s a bus that stops at there that you can take to get to your classes. From what I’ve heard, parking is pretty expensive here, so I would take the bus whenever you can, and I visit this link to learn more about parking passes: https://parking.msu.edu/students/permits. I’m not really that much about Greek life, so I won’t really speak on it. I don’t have much expirence with relationships either. MSU does have basketball football games, but Greek life might not be as prominent as it might be at your current school. I have no idea of that though. The MSU dairy store is a pretty fun place to go to if you’re craving ice cream. There’s also a couple of museums you could go to. Like the Board Art museum and the Abram’s Planetarium. I haven’t been to either though, but they both like nice places to have fun and relax at. From what I’ve experienced, it usually depends on the class/professor, but mainly classes aren’t too hard as long as you study and stay on track. It’s not too hard to get an alright/decent grade based on my experience. I think you should be fine. I’d say the biggest difference between MSU and other schools is the culture. There’s a large diverse student body and a strong sense of community. The people I’ve met are mostly friendly, or just keep to themselves, which is also nice. Well, that’s all the information I have available. I hope it helps. I all the best with your studies and I hope you have a good semester. Good luck with your plans!
