Your website erroneously states that Davenport has no admission requirements and admits 100% of applicants. Both statements are incorrect (Davenport does have admission requirements and does not admit those who do not meet the requirements). Please visit our website for more information or feel free to email me; I would be happy to direct you to the appropriate department to detail the requirements. In addition your website states DU is located in Grand Rapids and that the population is a little more than 11,000. DU's main campus is actually in Caledonia (near Grand Rapids) and that population estimate may be correct for Caledonia. Grand Rapids, Michigan has a populaton of 193,087.
