The faculty and staff will work with you through any situation that you have. There's a learning center to help students who might not have the studying skills for college that can really help. My first semester was very hard because I got in a car accident and was injured, but all of my professors helped me tremendously! I even got a 2.93 GPA though I was visiting physical therapy 3 times a week, going full time to school and didn't have my own car.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The student population isn't hugely diverse, but there are some very amazing and interesting students. I met some very neat people from India, China, Sri Lanka, and the Czech Republic. I've never met such interesting people!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Though my first year FAFSA (without loans) didn't leave me much for books and school supplies, I still did very well. The prices are great for in-state students, and all of the student events are free for students. So just about every week, I was getting free lunches, getting to see free local bands and even a really great magician! All free for students!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
-Talk to your professors if you have a problem, they really want you to succeed.
-If you need help, go to the Center for Learning, they'll help you with anything you need.
-Stay involved! Almost every week, an event is going on at the Idaho Falls Campus. Meet some new friends and enjoy school a little more.
-Be prepared. Every class I've had has given me a schedule for when assignments are due. Look at them often, to make sure you get things in on time!
-Talk to your academic advisers, they'll keep you on track!
-Go in with a great attitude. You can do this, and not everyone in the world has this fantastic opportunity!
