Review of California State Polytechnic University-Humboldt

from Blue Lake, CA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

HSU is a great school. there's an amazing faculty, all of whom are extremely knowledgeable and willing to help make sure that you learn what you aim to learn.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

The campus is amazing,though it has earned the nickname Hills and Stairs University for good reason. the campus, the CenterActivities, the consistent music playing and everything else makes for a wonderful experience.

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

HSU is a CSU, so it's ~$3K a semester but it is well worth it and in then end, if things go as planned, you'll earn that money right back from getting to use the education that you got there.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Try to be fit and active, cause there's a lot of walking there and there is a great bounty of slopes, stairs and hills there. make sure you do all of the work assigned, especially if it's important. i know not all classes are great, but try to stick through it and make it to the end. it'll be worth it in the end.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Artistic, individual, athletic, outdoors-y, musical, environmental, science-oriented, hippy, open minded, cool people. :) it's a very well rounded university and regardless of who you are, you will find your niche.
