The teachers are very explanatory. When I was in high school, I took advanced courses, so I'm taking classes that I've sorta already taken right now (I've only been here a semester), but I'm still learning more about them and remembering things better. The teachers are also very willing to help outside of class, and work with your schedule to do it. Also, the majority of the teachers relate to the students very well and use teaching techniques that will keep your attention.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
To be concise, I am having the time of my life right now. I'm learning new things, I'm active in several clubs, I am meeting awesome people, and have a great educational program. It's so nice having the independence of being in the dorms also, but not having to worry about bills like you would have living in a house or apartment.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
It is worth every penny. For a state university, it is relatively cheap also.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Try to live in the Towers Complex. They're a bit more expensive than the Singular/Trussler Complex, but that's because they were recently renovated. They have floor lobbies so it allows you to be social and meet loads of people.
Also, don't get the Unlimited Meal Plan. The cafeteria food isn't that great, so even though it's the best deal, you probably won't want to go there enough to make it worth the price.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Anyone who is from a mid-sized or small school will enjoy Emporia State. Even in my large lecture classes, my teachers know my name and take initiative to answer questions from everyone. It is a small campus, so you're able to walk from once side to another in less than ten minutes. You see the same people every day, and people recognize you and say hi, so it's really nice in the aspect of not being surrounded by thousands of strangers like you would have in a bigger school.
