i only came here for the education and the respect that the school demands. now that the name has changed, we shall see if that changes. it has really not been an enjoyable place to be and is more of a means to get a good job and not to enjoy college.

MS&T is a great school to go to if you are looking for an Engineering school. not for Petroleum engineering, the department is very low staffed and has lack of helping students. If you are going to MS&T for an Engineering school go for it.. but you have to bust ass for 5 years and then enjoy real life!

If you are considering coming to MS&T, you must really weigh how important academics are compared to everything else. Academics are close to top notch, but that is the only good thing about this school. I thought academics would outweigh everything for me, but I have learned after three years here that is not the case. This town will try to crush your spirit. I have not been beaten by the academics, I have a 4.0 GPA doing a double major of tough coursework who will graduate after two more semesters. The lack of a decent social experience, the crushing oppression of local business, and general ignorance and stupidity of the townsfolk have made this experience unbearable. Think hard before coming here!

If you want to go to a party school, don't come here. You have to make your own fun. It's the best bang for the buck for a good ole fashion engineering degree though. You get your money's worth in education and job opportunies.

It is a great school for academics. I am really glad I graduated from the school. I do feel like I missed out on some social aspects because I transferred. If I had to do it over again, knowing that I would have been an engineer, I would have applied to other schools. Then I might have had a better social life. The reason other engineering schools fare better socially is because they have other majors (business, arts and sciences, etc.) to help offset the "nerdiness" of the school. Keep that in mind when visiting schools.

DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF NORMAL! I let the place suck my soul out for two years before I decided to switch majors and transfer to MIZZOU. Also it's not as great of engineering school as they say. Sure it's the best in the region but they aren't even in the top 75 polls for most of their departments. If you want to be an engineer you will make plenty of money. Spend some extra for college and don't regret being there everyday

Did I mention the campus is nice and everything is in walking dance. Everybody knows what a great school it is when you say you go to Rolla (even with a name change). Overall, people go to Rolla to get educated and get a job, not to have exercise in a Taj Mahal and stare at hot blondes.

i don't regret going to this school, but i know people who do. my best friend came with me freshman year and she transferred because she couldn't take the pressure. classes are hard, but it is worth it in the end. if you have a degree from this school there is nothing to stop you from doing whatever you want with your life. you are guarenteed a good job with good pay.
