There are so many options. Many different majors and minors, as well as classes and teachers. It's easy to find a schedule that works for you.

Shane

I think that the oppurtunities that this university offers are the best thing. This university allows students to gain a thorough understanding of their major of choice. If you apply yourself and do the work that your professor assigns you will learn so much. The professors themselves are very passionate about their work and love to teach students about their subject. They dedicate themsleves to helping students learn as much as they can about their subject of choice. The oppurtunity for undergraduate research at this university is also a great aspect.

I like the small campus because I'm able to meet a lot of people instead of being in a bigger school and not being able to meet as many people. I also like how the classes here are smaller and the professors are able to focus on the students instead of having to teach to a large number of students. I absolutely love coming to school here and believe that everyone should apply to come to school here.

Aaron

I think the best thing about St. Cloud State is the available resources at my finger tips to ensure a career job after graduation. Whether it is career services, advisors, job fairs, or job searches on the St. Cloud State website, there are endless opportunities to help plug you in to the job you are seeking after graduation. I think that this is the best thing about the school because the school really emphasis's planning ahead on lining up a job for when you graduate so you are not left wondering why you haven't been offered a job.

The best thing about St. Cloud State is the diverse population of its students and faculty. This has positively impacted my education and personal life. The faculty is comprised of a unique group of people with a variety of ethnicities and personal values. This has made me more culturally aware and comfortable with people who are perceived different than me, after coming from a predominately white suburb with little diversity. Currently I have a very diverse group of friends who include people from all over the world. My experiences have made me a well-rounded student and very culturally competent.

I consider the best thing about my school is the available help if I need it. There are various tutoring centers where I can go to receive help. My professors have also been able to help me with any problems I have in their class.

Katie

I like how there is so much opportunity and help. During welcome week for Freshmen their program they have set up most definitely helps you get established and feel comfortable with the campus. Also I like how it is a University, but yet the campus isn't to big where I get losted or feel out of place. The departments are also very helpful with your questions and they dont juggle you around.

Christopher

St. Cloud State is a college with many diverse back grounds that allows education to students who are willing to learn. This is the best part bacause it allows students to make friends from all over the state, country and world. Which is nice about this is also having professors from all walks of life bringing their own teaching styles to educate students in different ways in every class.

Sara

I would consider the best thing about Saint Cloud State University to be how wonderful the teaching staff and office staff are. My second job is an on campus job in an office setting. I could not ask for better guidance and assistance in doing my job. The professors here are top notch and are very approachable. I am not one to be timid, and if I were these teachers are not ones to be intimidated by, one can inquire about whatever and whenever.

Samantha

I like our College of Education program the best. I have learned so much and am starting feel prepared for my job proffession as a teacher, even though I am jsut beginning my learning in this field. The professors are friendly, intelligent, and understanding. There are so many resources available for future teachers.

I chose St Cloud State University because it offers a wide variety of academic programs in a diverse learning environment. There are many opportunities for students to join clubs and organizations. The learning community is friendly and fun. The faculty and staff are very helpful and accessible. The campus is located on the banks of the Mississippi River and there many community activities available nearby. I have found my experience to be intellectually challenging and personally enriching.

Cassandra

I like that they have the major I want to get. I also like that it's relativly unxpensive because that way I won't have as much debt when I graduate. I also like some of the extras they have like free movie weekends and a certain amount of free cash. Also almost every classs is taught by the actual proffesors and not their TA's. Registration here is based on how many points you have and based on a lottery like some schools.

Alexandra

I consider the best thing at my school to be the professors with business professional experience. My accounting and business law professors really made you be able to connect what we are leaning to the real world. This also made it very interesting to learn the subjects.

Stephanie

As I walk down the sidewalk, wondering around campus, a rainbow of people flash by my eyes! There are hundereds of individuals of every shape, size, color, ethnicity, religion, and backround. In my opinion, this diversity is the absolute best part of St. Cloud State University because with this diversity of people, comes a mixture of interests. These interests had lead to the development of many clubs and activities. Not only are students able to express themselves and their culture at SCSU, feel proud to share it with others and learn about new cultures.

Kong

I find it that St. Cloud State University provides many great opportunities for incoming freshmen to grasp the college experience. There are also many different kinds of resource centers that may assist students on what to do for future hardships to come when there are money troubles or personal problems. Such places that would help for any money troubles would be the financial aid office. Many on campus buildings may also provide work study jobs for students. A place that would help students for any personal issues could be; the LGBT (LesbianGayBisexualTransgender) center, Multicultural center. These may help troubled students.

Jeff

I feel the best thing about SCSU is the ammount of field experiance that the physical education teacher education majors receive. The ammount of field work prepares us as students for what to expect as teachers after graduation.

Kalia

The best thing about our school is how it is very accepting and diverse no only that but also provide the best learning experience to all the students. After I got rejected by 7 colleges, St. Cloud was willing to give me a chance to prove myself that I can achieve success, it has given me a chance to go to college and aiming towards my goals. St. Cloud have a very pieceful environment where I can study easily and I can easily be adapted with other students. They are very welcoming including the professors.

Now I feel that I have better time management sice due dates are more concrete in college so there is no time to just goof off. I also gaianed some really good friends that i hope to know for most of my life. I feel that I am getting the full college experince, and that is the best part for me.
