Its a great university and has fantastic programs! Its great financial aid and price was the reason I chose here. It has that college feel and you are guaranteed to find your niche at Fitchburg State University!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
A tip that I wish I had was to look at your degree evaluation and figure out what classes you will need to take for your major and the pre-requisites that are required for your degree! Not knowing that in the beginning of my Freshman year made me behind just one course! Also if you have the chance to add on a minor DO IT! With the advanced LAS that is required for every student, just doing TWO more classes gets you a minor in that subject!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
it would be depending on what area of study you would choose.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Dorm life is HIGHLY recommended at FSU. It is a great way to make friends. There are a few dorm halls to choose from some are more homey than others but overall they all provide the same thing, great WIFI, cable, and all halls will have a Kitchen area as well as laundry and vending machines. Some even have fun things like pool and ping pong tables.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
It is buffet style and they always will have something that you will enjoy. They change the special every day and keep things the same such as the salad bar, grill, deli, and pasta. There is also a fun array of desserts every day at every meal. The Freedom meal plan is most preferred so you can go unlimited times and have 125$ towards your dining points to use in the commuter cafe or coffee shop.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
FSU has several fun things to do each week they try to do their best at creating fun free programs and things to do to keep the students entertained.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
My favorite thing about FSU is the fact that it has a shuttle service that goes up and down the main street for student safety and convenience. It goes to the commuter rail station that goes right into North Station and on the other end it leads to the school parking lot and track and fields.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
perfect school for students who are looking to pursue a degree in nursing. Fitchburg State is GREAT for nursing as well as it is for education. It even has an elementary school basically on campus that students can do their practicum at.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are SEVERAL clubs at Fitchburg State. Clubs from gay straight alliance to Student government. There is also a lot of intramural sports for students who would like to have fun but do not want to commit to a sport.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
We do have greek life on campus.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Campus safety has always been a little issue seeming we are so close to the local neighborhoods but campus police are really great at preventing any incidences and there are emergency buttons all over campus. there are also cameras everywhere as well as in parking lots.
