" As an international student, be aware that the weather in season is frigid in Michigan. Be prepared to play in the rain, freezing rain, snow and sleet. There is no on-campus practice facility. There is a single indoor hitting bay in the basement of the fieldhouse. There also is no golf course affiliated with the university. Therefore, arrangements are made with local clubs, however, club members take precedence, resulting in very limited opportunity to play. Due to weather, most private clubs are not even open for the spring season, so there is very little practice before spring tournaments. Cannot practice at the private clubs outside of team practice. There is no school transportation to golf course for practice. Must get rides with teammates, which becomes challenging when school schedules don't align and not everyone has a car.
The golf team is either poorly funded or mismanaged, so be prepared to be asked to raise $1,000+ per player for travel.
Very little practice. Practice is less than what NCAA allows. The coach continues his private lessons at his home course even though this is a full-time position and treats it as a part-time job. Promises are broken.
Coach lacks enthusiasm, is pessimistic, and is incapable of being supportive of his players. He does not bring out the best in his players, leading to little growth and transfers of top players. Furthermore, he bad mouths players to the parents of other players.
It is a good school but if you are coming more for golf than school, you will be dissappointed."
