Review of North Dakota State University-Main Campus
from Hastings, MN
Do you feel you’re learning a lot?
Many of my teachers made themselves available to help any time I needed it. Or if they weren't available at the time I needed, I could always count on tutors to help me out. Many of my teachers knew of great extent what they were talking about, and a few tried to make it fun for the students, which I loved !
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The area that NDSU is located is great! Just a short walk across campus, I am able to get my work out on at the Wellness Center, for free! The area has a lot of great restaurants located around it, and is only a 10 minute drive from the mall. It's really a beautiful campus, whether it's winter or spring.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Compared to other colleges and universities, NDSU is a great deal! They really provide you with so many free things, you can't even imagine. The education you get there is really worth your money your spending. Just because it seems like a lot of money now, in the long run it will really help out with your future.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Do not procrastinate, and study a lot! Staying on top of things was crucial for my first year, and procrastinating makes things so much harder. Next, if you are trying to decide on bringing your vehicle, do it! You might end up having a few classes downtown, and having a car was really a lot better than riding the bus, plus you don't have to bum rides from your friends when you want to get around.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
I know that NDSU has a great pharmacy program, and I'm not even a pharmacy major! I also know that it has a very competitive architecture and landscape architecture program, but each year they only accept around 60 students to get into the architecture program, and about 20 students for the landscape architecture program, so if you're contemplating that, really keep up on your school work and deadlines!
