Review of Bridgewater State University

from Bridgewatwer, MA

Describe your college in three sentences.

Bridgewater State University is a great place to learn. The teachers and faculty are great and the campus is very diverse. the best part about BSU is how friendly everyone is!

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Stay focused on what you came here for. education is a top priority for many people at this school, so study up and be studious and you'll be just fine!

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

All the classes are fairly small, with about an average class size of 23 students. The are some teachers who are better than other, but for the most part every teacher is great!

Describe the dorm life at your college.

On campus housing is great if you're not a freshman. The freshman dorms can be tough so I recommend applying to be in a RLC (Residential Learning Community). it is a great way to get to know people as well as being placed in a nicer dorm.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Depending on who you are and what you like, there is guaranteed to be something you like! Dining halls ranked from best to worst- Bears Den, Tilly, Crimson, ECC.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

There are a lot of great volunteer opportunities to get involved. There is always something going on, whether its a program being put on or an open mic night, there's always something to do.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

BSU, compared to other state schools fall about right in the middle. The Tuition is only $940 for the year but fee's are what is expensive! Average cost per year is about $20,000.
