Review of Southeast Missouri State University

from Harrisburg, IL

Describe your college in three sentences.

SEMO is a place for every student. With all of our clubs, sports, and Greek life, there is something here for everyone to enjoy. The teachers are fantastic and will help you achieve your academic goals

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Do not try to go up Cardic hill on your first day of going to class. Avoid 8 am classes like the plague. Join a club, intramural team, or participate Greek life to catch a break from classes.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

Teachers are a mix of easy peasy lemon squeezy to harder than most. If you study your best no matter what, than you'll succeed.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

I made all of my closet friends the first year living community style.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

There's Subway, Panda Express, Starbucks, Chik-fil-a, Papa John's, and so much more.

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

There are always musicals, concerts, or plays at the River Campus. Sporting events give away free items like T-shirts and food!

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

If you ever go up Cardiac Hill, you have to place gum on the gum tree. Walking from Pig Lot to Towers is a path almost every student takes at least once.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Active, Musically inclined, Book Smart, etc. Literally everyone is welcomed.

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

DPS is always around campus.
