Cleveland State University is Full of opportunity and people who want you to succeed. CSU has so many student Clubs and activities going on that you may wonder if attend fun events might be a class. CSU also has wickedly awesome discounts with local museums and theaters, getting students into the best seats and places for very nominal prices, if not for free.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
When you come, research the type of college you're going to enroll in, Monte Ahuja College of Business, College of Science, etc and see what opportunities await you in your field. The professors here are very good and will go the distance in providing opportunities to students who show they really want to succeed.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
As the classes enter the 300 range and above, you'll feel as if you are in ph. D classes. It's goof though. The teachers provide so many different resources to learn, the only thing that hamper your success is you.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Dorm life is FUN! Your friends are always around you, parties are right down the hall and the bills are paid inadvance...HOWEVER! Some of the dorms, I feel are a bit over priced and depending on which dorm you chose (for we have MANY OPTIONS), you may be sharing your room with another student, which is ok, though for the price, I think a bit more privacy is good. In my dorm room actually, it was just myself and my girlfriend <3 . The heating was excellent and whenever anything was broken or not working right, they were there to fix it almost immediately. CSU prides itself on having safe, functional dorms. Good stuff.
BWARE: If you do house in the dorm, they will automatically add you to the meal plan...
Describe the food and dining at your college.
You can eat at the school cafeteria if you wish. They are pretty festive and it's a fun convenient place to eat, meet your friends and enjoy the company of new friends.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
What is there not to do? The Campus Activities Board (CAB) has all kinds of events, from Glow in the Dark Golf, to Movie nights ranging from Romantic Films (Twilight) to Family Fun Movies (Toy Story III). We also have so many different Clubs at CSU and sources to support them that there is usually always something going on! We have plays at the local theatre and are situated right down town in the heart beat of Theatre Culture.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Being a Student gets you $15.00 FRONT ROW tickets to the Hannah Theatre, FREE ADMISSION to the Botanical Gardens and the Natural History Museum as well as discounted admission to other museums and theaters. Not to mention all of the FREE TICKETS that students get tossed at them via the Student Life Department.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Unusual? The Unusual is usual around here. Hahaha. Nothing is really considered unusual. I'm the President of the Chinese Club, and much to the chagrin to everyone who finds out, I don't fit the stereotype. We've had a Gay/Lesbian fashion show, two I believe. We are a pretty open college. If you have the power and desire to do something good, do it and people will join you.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Students who like to DO STUFF, hang with friends, become great Leaders and LEARN will most likely have a GREAT time at CSU.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
We have HUNDREDS of clubs! From the Chinese Club (I'm the President of it, by the way), to the Chinese Students and Scholars Association (CSSA) to the Anime Club, to the Tango Club, to the Universal Martial Artist Club. We are an all encompassing school. If you have an interest in something, there's probably a club doing it. And if not, you can start it!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
GREEK LIFE is Big. They have so many bloody parties, wow.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Campus safety is ALL AROUND! When walking through the hall from one part of the college to another, you'll probably run into several officers. They're nice, kind and very helpful. We even have a safety escort service that will escort you whenever you want, wherever you want on campus. If something occurs, the police, video camera's and other protective services are on it to take care of the situation pronto, making sure that every one is ok. This in mind, be aware that this college is located downtown, with all different types of people and YOU are your first line of defense. Be aware of your surroundings, the people around you and walk with a friend after dark.
