San Diego State University Top Questions

That greek life is really big and if you are a guy you do not get into parties unless you know 2 people and have 5 girls with you. I think I am going to rush because it is hard to party in the dorms and only upper classmen have houses off campus.

I wish I would have known how good of a job the university does at making new students feel welcomed. It would have saved me a little bit of stress.

I wish I would have know and researched more about financial aids and government grants. I also wish I would have known tuition prices were to raise by nearly a third.

I wish I understood more about college life and the opportunities it presents. Such as on campus organizations and study abroad opportunities. SDSU has a great study abroad department and is working harder to help students study abroad.

There was a lot of emphasis placed on being in a fraternity and that the academics weren't very highly thought of.

I can not really think of any thing at this moment.

I wish I had known how active fraternity and sorority life really is. I also wish I had been more educated on financial aid and scholarships available to me.

nothing. I knew college was going to be a new world with new experiences that I could only experience first hand.

How hard a major university would be. From picking classes to making friends it was really hard the first semester.

I wish I would have known how much of a negative impact the greek system had on this campus before I got here. Everyone knows SDSU to be a party school, but the Fraternities and Sororities escalate it to an unhealthy level with the binging of alcohol and drugs, which really gives the school a bad reputation, and attracts the wrong type of students. Had I been more aware of this before, I might have more strongly considered going to another university.
