I love that it's big, but I am in honors (which I recommend) so I still get small classes. I am having difficulties choosing a major, and it's great that CSU has so many. The experience is your own. The resources are almost limitless here, you just have to be motivated enough to use them. The dorms aren't bad, the food is pretty good. It's great to be on campus, there's so much to do. Some of the administration is helpful, others (some advisors) aren't, but the benefit of being in a big school is the fact that there are probably five different advisors just for that major that you can utilize.

I think that CSU is the perfect size school. Yes, there are a lot of students and it could be uncomfortable at first. But the more that you spend time making new friends, you can easily see the homey-ness of the school.

CSU is located in fort collins, colorado. it is truly a college town. that is how they make most of their income. usually, if you live here you have something to do with the college or your family is here for farming. the town is great, it's little and welcoming. there are 25,000 students and 5,000 professors. it is a big school, but it doesn't feel like it. everybody on the campus is nice and very friendly. csu is a main university that students in colorado pick. when people here that i am going there, it's not a surprise and they wish me luck. there is lots of school pride, especially if we are playing CU Boulder or having a boarder war with Wyoming. overall its a great school.

CSU is amazing! Every person I talk to has a relative or knows someone who went or is going to CSU and they never have a bad thing to say. All I hear is praise. I couldn't have picked a better school. I think the size is just right, maybe a little big, but I feel comfortable on campus. I get a very strong sense of community here and feel very welcomed and safe. My only complaint is that I wish that they offered architecture as a major. They have construction management and landscape architecture but not just regular architecture.

The best thing about CSU is that there is something for everyone. Whether it's extracurricular activities, clubs, or anything. It's in a great location as well. I think the size is just right, if it were to small I think it would be boring. There is also plenty of school pride.

Amy

CSU is the perfect college, it doesnt dominate fort collins, and the town is spread out. There are things to do and places to eat. Not much crime to speak of. I love it here.

Erin

the campus is far to wide spread, if it were an option they should condens the buildings and have more student space availible. I spend most my time in computer labs CSU's administration is too impersonal. After searching the web and not finding the answers I would call some one and they send me back to the internet. Not very helpful.

Steven

CSU is alright. I really like Colorado and the city of Fort Collins. However I don't like life on the weekends. It seems to center around drinking every night and there aren't a lot of people outside playing sports on the weekends. Actually, there aren't a lot of people at the school period, since lots of people go home. That should tell you something about the school right away.

Lauren

Everyone at CSU is nice! All the students are very polite and are always saying hello to strangers. The size of CSU is just right, you know a lot of people but not every single person..there's always an opportunity to meet new people.

Zach

The best thing about csu is the laid back learning environments
