Kansas State University Top Questions

If you're expecting easy As without any work, don't come here. Getting decent grades at KSU really isn't that hard, as long as you're willing and able to put in time and effort. If you don't want to go to class, don't come here. That's part of putting in the effort, and it's also respectful to your professors and other students. This school was built for students to learn; if that's not your goal, then stay far away.

Before attending this school, I was looking for a college that would offer both community and equal opportunities. It is very hard to identify a type of individual that would not fit into this college. Perhaps the kind that was not willing to invest in others. Someone who desired a free form education that a state school was not designed to offer.

Someone who doesn't want to win the big 12. To be honest I believe this is a university for everyone. It is so welcoming and I have found several contacts that encourage me and make it fun to come to class. If I had to choose someone, I would say someone with a negative mindset. Because it is that attitude that will prevent you from finding the right people to keep you grounded and strong.

Someone who is willing to work hard and play hard. I believe to succeed in any University you need to work hard to live balanced. Kansas State University enable you to live a healthy lifestyle and be excited about what you are studying.

Those who consider themselves introverts should not attend Kansas State University. Students at Kansas State University see each other as family and embrace eachother as such. Campus is always active and provides many activities for students to get involved in or participate in!

Kansas State University is a school that must fit you and your needs. It is a school unlike many others because it has a focus on agriculuture and the environment. If you don't embrace nature or have a passion for the country life then the physical appeal of the campus may not be your choice. The students on campus are also very friendly and lively and although the campus isn't too big, the personalities and smiles are. If you don't like meeting new people and socializing then Kansas State University is not the school for you.

THose who think it'll be an easy "sports" college

K-State has something available for everyone. However, that doesn't mean K-State is the school for everyone. It is a large campus, and can feel intimidating at times for people who are not good with big crowds. There are approximately 24,000 undergraduate students at K-State, and a school that large is not comfortable for everyone. A student who is uncomfortable in large crowds, or suffers from severe social anxiety, might be better off at a smaller school.

Somone who has the mindset that everything in college will be an easy A.

K-state is a great school for anyone but especially those who are coming from a small town. It is a university but the campus feels small. It is also known for its agriculuture and education programs. It also has endless opportunities to get plugged in and be involved. So in short, if you like the small school feel, the university level education, or being involved, this is the school for you.

If you are looking to not get involved, be ignored by your peers, or coast through college, Kansas State is not for you. KSU is a university with over 250 organizations, a booming Greek life, and Division I sports. There is always something going on and it's almost impossible not to get involved. The people are so friendly that if you are looking lonesome in a classroom someone is bound to ask your name. Lastly, the degree programs are among the top in the nation. If you want to be prepared for the work force, go to KSU.

Should you happen to be the type of person who doesn't like to be challenged, encouraged, cared for, taken seriously, or aided, K-State is not the place for you. Should you be the type of person who doesn't want an advisor that will stand by you every step of the way through your four plus years of college, K-State is not the place for you. K-State is a place at which the student is put first. However, if all of that positive stuff is not for you, K-State is not the place for you.

Some one who has a lot of school pride who is very involved with sporting events. The school has a reputation of being an agriculture school so a lot, definitely not all, students are from a rural comunity. The school is in a fairly good sized city that is mostly made up of college students. The city the school is in though is in a very rural area where the nearest big city is at least 30 miles away.

Honestly, the campus is pretty accepting of everyone. They try to encourage friendliness and communications amont the students themselves and between students and staff. The only reason I can think of for not attending Kansas State would be if you found another school that fits you better or you think will better serve your needs.

Those who enjoy smaller schools with less students.

If you are looking for small class sizes this is not the school. Many of my classes had over 400 people in a lecture.

A person that shouldn't attend this school would be unmotivated, a procrastinator, and not school spirited. KSU has a wide variety of students, but in order to succeed at this school, the student must be dedicated. It is a very challenging school and students must keep up on their assignments in order to pass. Other than academics, school spirit is a huge part of KSU. From athletics to the greek houses, KSU provides many ways to be involved on campus and it is very encouraged for students to do so.

Someone who wants a large wide spreadout campus.

There is none, and I'm not just saying that. Kansas State welcomes everyone, no matter their race, ethnicity, religion, or the way they dress or act. K-State is a very diverse college and that's what i like about K-State. I have met so many people, some I thought I would never meet.
