San Diego State University Top Questions

The worest thing about this campus is that some classes have to big of a lecture, so it makes it hard to have that one on one with the professor.

The availability of classes to choose from. It has always been difficult to get classes you want and/or need without crashing unless you are a graduating senior, or higher up on the registration priority. Especially now after the budget stuff. Sections have been cut, and classes are bigger. This makes it even harder than before to get into classes, and it causes several people to be delayed in their degrees if they can't crash.

Perhaps thats its so easy to get into and a lot of times I feel like its selling itself short because we do have a great business program and foreign affairs program. It is also known as a party school, which I can't really deny because of our amount of frats and sororities that that is what several students do throughout the week. But I find that they can still suceed academically.

The worst thing about SDSU is the lack of a community feel. Most of the campus' population are commuters, so the aspect of living as part of a community is very small at SDSU. Most people living in the dorms do not know any others in other dorms, but I would love to see cohesion among the dorms as well as the campus population.

They do not offer much help for those students who ar not in activities and who are commuting to school. So my advice is toask as many questions as needed.

The worst part about my school is the fact that i don't know if the major focus that i'm in is going to be available to me when it's time to apply for my major.

The current budget crisis in the state of California has forced the university to cut back its classes and layoff professors, making it difficult to graduate in 4 years.

Workload of homework, because many professors believe that his or her class is the only one that you should be concentrating on. They don't take into consideration that learning the concepts is more important than just doing one homework assignment after the other. Sometimes 3 or more assignments are due in one week depending on the class. Not all classes are this way though.

The state budget cuts are horrible. It has affected so many of my friends and they have ruined my chances of being accepted into the Nursing Program at SDSU. We are paying more for our education, yet professors are being forced to take mandatory furlough days.
