Washington State University Top Questions

Undergraduate classes consist of many young and high school students, low maturity rate. Graduate classes are much older students, but generally more considerate and thoughtful.

WSU is a public university, so it is expected for it to house students from differing economic backgrounds, religious backgrounds, social backgrounds and academic backgrounds. On a graduate basis, the university specializes in veterinary medicine, hospitality, business and communication. However, one over-arching theme is a sense of community. Pullman is a small town and therefore is tight-knit. Walking on campus people will say "good-morning" to people they have never met, help anyone having a problem and make a point to interact with other social groups. It is hard to say any student at WSU is a stranger because we all come from the same Cougar family. If you are concerned about finding a niche, don't be because there is a place for everyone.

At WSU my classmates are often very helpful. I have yet to have a class where I don't make at least a few friends. I rely on them in times where I have to miss class or don't understand the material.

Many of my classes are full of people certified and excited about their education which is helpful to my motivation as well.
