Ball State University Top Questions

What kind of person should not attend Ball State University?

Collin

Someone who does not want to be around drunks every weekend or wants to get a better degree at IU or Purdue

Braelyn

Anti-social people should not attend this school. The students and staff at Ball State are wonderfully friendly and outgoing. The whole university is centered around getting involved and meeting friends. If someone were extremely anti-social, he or she may not have the best experience at Ball State University because all the people I have met love to get to know others.

Fariraishe

A person that cannot afford college without need based money. If you are not eligible for national merit scholarships then don't attend this school. If you don't have some type of full ride scholarship with the school and you know you won't have help from your family then you shouldn't apply to this school. Basically, if you don't have your financials in order, then don't apply to this school because you'll end up in ridiculous debt.

A person that is looking to go to a school that is easy going and not hard. The corriculum is tough and the work load is difficult.

Kristie

People who are looking for a big university within a city with lots of social activities should not attend.

Dana

I feel that Ball State University is a school where everybody is accepted. A wide range of students attend Ball State, and they are all welcomed.

Daison

I do not believe there is a type of person that should not come to Ball State. College in general is a place where you have to be self-motivated to achieve graduation. I feel that Ball State is very accepting. They allow people from the community to exercise on campus, eat in the dining halls, and use the library. There are also many student lead groups here that support the student’s culture and invite the different cultures to work together.

Kerry

Someone who wants to be in a big city with constant motion. Muncie is a small town with farmland surronding.

Crystal

Everyone should have the chance to better their life by furthering their education. I believe if everyone was given the opportunity to be enlightened on the subjects I'm being taught, we wouldn't have some of the problems we have in our society today.

shelby

A person who is not ready for a committed school life. A person has to be ready to work and be able to manage time and social life as well.

Katrina

I believe everyone should have an opportunity to reach for their educational dreams. If people do not meet academic requirements, admissions will not let them in.

Nicholas

If you are looking for an exotic location with a very busy city life, this may not be the prime location for you. It is also a predominately undergraduate college, with less emphasis on graduate research.

Alicia

People who don't want to get involved on campus, and who doesn't like to "party."

Natalie

Someone who wants to go to a really big school, because Ball State really isn't that big. Most freshman leave after the first year due to expenses. There are a lot of people who go out to party from thursday night through saturday, so there are a lot of drunks. A lot of people don't like how the meal plan works, because there is a set amount of money to be spent for each meal and if you don't spend all of the money, you don't get it back.

Emma

There really aren't any people who should not attend Ball State.

Kathryn

I don't really think there is any person who shouldn't attend this school. Ball State is very accomodating to people's needs. They have something for everyone here.

Tyler

This school is pretty diverse and offers a lot of different programs that meet the needs of students from different backgrounds. I think a student who wants to major in law or maybe pre med could find a more challenging university that would make them stand out more on an application to med school or law school. Other than that I think this school fits the needs of almost every students

Steffanie

nobody should feel they can't go here, it is for all kinds of people!

Jackie

I don't believe it's fair to say no one can attend this school. I believe everyone has the right to attend college if they would like. However, if you are not willing to put forth the effort and work hard, college is probably not for you.
