Review of Worcester State University

from Grafton, MA

Describe your college in three sentences.

worcester state university offers a great education for a great price. college is very expensive and its nice to know i wont be even close to $100,000 in debt upon graduation (especially since i want to obtain a masters degree later on). commuting works for me because i can work as well as enjoy the perks of being on campus whenever i want.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

get involved. i know this is mostly a commuter school, but getting involved really helps you feel like part on the worcester state community. it also provides a learning experience which you can add to rev up your resume.

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

i am a junior, and as a junior classes should be challenging. an important thing about classes is that you can chose how challenging it is based on how much work you are willing to put in. the more work you put in, the better the grade, and, most importantly you will learn very important skills for your field.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

honestly, i have never dormed at this campus but hear mixed reviews. many people enjoy living on campus for the convenience very much. the only complaint is the shorting of housing, but don't worry, wsu has already started plans to build a new residence hall.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

i love the taco salad bowls found in the lower caf. if you go, you have to try one out! i also recommend the paninis at the lower cafe. breakfast is better than ihop at the dinning hall. the cooks make breakfast sandwiches and omelets to order and have a wide variety of ready foods if you don't want to wait. pre-made salads are good and i love the starbucks on campus!

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

the greendale mall is close by, and there are tons of clubs in the area.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

prior to attending wsu, i attended a private college. i am saving so much money by attending wsu and i am getting a great education. professors are very helpful.
