Michelle from St. Johns, MI
Great Lakes Christian College is the place to go if you want to further your faith and receive an excellent education. I have been attending for three semesters and do not feel as if any other school compares to the professionalism and courtesy that the professors and students exhibit. This school is the place to be if you want to grow and challenge yourself spiritually and educationally.
