Review of Middle Tennessee State University

from Murfreesboro, TN

Describe your college in three sentences.

A large but not too large of a community. Plenty of opportunity to find or expand on the things you love. Skilled professors that really know and enjoy their field of knowledge.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

If taking advantage of the online courses through this university, remember to devote enough time to it as you would a class that meets every day. They are very helpful and I would recommend them but it would benefit you if you even set up a time like an on campus class that you meet with your online course. Get to know every professor you have. You never know where they can help and how tightly they are connected to the top. That being said be sure to get input from other students and even check sites that rate professors before picking your courses. Use good judgment when it comes to course load and always remember summer school is a great option.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

I did not live in a dorm but from stories and going ons around campus it seemed to be a good choice.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Can be a bit expensive without a meal plan but the choices along with how many convenient locations for either a quick snack or full meal make it a good area.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

Their are plenty of things to do on and around campus. Clubs, club sports, and Greek life are the obvious but there is also entertainment from time to time and movies for a dollar in the theater. Various places in the community and campus organizations also put on events.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

-music -art -nursing -engineering -aerospace -Athletic Training/Exercise Science (BEST!!!) - Many other majors/ interests...and the advisers are very helpful and can even help you decide what is best for you!

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

I participate in the rugby club sport. There are numerous clubs and club sports available for everyone. It's a great way to make friends and come out of your shell. It prepares you for real world situations and also opens up opportunities for social events. You can even create your own club with enough support!

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

We have our own police force as well as its own telephone number. They offer an escort service to and from your car for night class, although I have taken a few and have not felt unsafe yet. The campus is always busy so chances are you'll be watched out for one way or another.
