SMSU is a great campus, full of life and school pride. It is small enough to feel welcome and homey but big enough to not feel like a small town high school. The professors go above and beyond for you to succeed.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Join clubs! The more involved you are the more you will enjoy being there! You gain so much knowledge and become very close to many people by being in clubs.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Professors push you and expect nothing less than your best. They are willing to go the extra mile to help you succeed, be sure to ask for help!
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The dorms are dorms. Nothing to special but it's what you make it. Living in Oceans Boulevard was the best decision I made going to SMSU. Get active and get to know your dorm mates!
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Cafeteria food was good. Lots of options and they take requests. Plus there is Papa Johns!
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Lots of club hold events and seminars. There are sporting events and concerts held on campus monthly. Like i said the more involved you are the more fun you will have!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Super cheap tuition but experienced and well educated professors. NO CLASSES ARE TAUGHT BY TA's all classes are taught by licensed professors. 95% of classes are 30 students or less the maximum for general lecture classes if like 95 students. Small class sizes means you get to know your professors.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
No Greek Life. Depends on whether you like that or not. For me, I don't so I loved being at a college without a Greek Colony.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Super safe campus. Never felt unsafe at any time. I would stay by myself over breaks and felt perfectly safe. I work late nights sometimes and walking around late a night has never been a worry to me, no matter where I was on campus. The city of Marshall is really safe also.
