What's unique about your campus?

Isabela

I think the professors and classmates are the best part of the school because you can feel the college community in a way that is positive and helpful.

The best thing about my school is how diverse it is. The first group of friend I had in college, outside of my high school friends, were from Nigeria. Working on campus, I am exposed to new ethnicities and cultures almost daily.

My dorms are awesome. It is a small set of dorms and we are very close knit, like a little family. This makes my college experience a blast!

Nicole

The best thing about the school is the campus is very large and has the degree program I require for furthering my education.

Dayna

The best thing about my school would have to be the classes. They are tailored in a way that you do not feel like you are one in a hundred. The class sizes, contrary to popular belief, are small. There are some lecture classes that consist of hundreds of students, but those are rare. I have communication with my teachers and they are always willing to help their students.

At Wichita State University, student involvement is outstanding! Joining organizations is very easy and accessible. During the first month of school all of the clubs, Greek houses, and churches on or around campus set up booths in the middle of campus and hand out friee infromation. All organizations are very friendly and accepting which helps incoming freshmen and transfer students feel at home. Many other schools scorn the fact that WSU does not have a football team However, not having a football team has intensified student involvement and support of all on-campus athletics and clubs.

Wichita State University gives students like me who are financially in need and who are also the first in their family to go to college, opportunities to overcome those disadvantages. By having great advisors and different student services we are able to have guidance and reassurance in pursuing higher education. We are provided with great tutors and mentors to be able to help us prepare for the intense job of being a student.

Tina

The free tutor and many other free services

The best thing about Wichita State University is that the student is able to choose from a wide variety of programs to follow. Being able to have many programs to choose from allows a student to decide what future that he or she will be satisfied with.

Jenifer

The best thing about Wichita State University is the diversity. There's so much to learn about the world at WSU with the many different people, majors, teachers, and cultures.

Amber

The best thing about Wichita State is the amount of diviersity that it has. I have classes with tons of people from all over the world, from several age groups, and with completely differing viewpoints. This is one of the reasons that I enjoy going to class because the lectures are always so interesting because there is always someone with something different to say.

Marsha

There are a lot of opportunities to get involved on campus and in the community. This allows us to meet a variety of people and try a variety of things.

Maikhoi

Without a doubt, the best thing about WSU is our friendliness. I remember that even before I became a Schocker, (Wu Schock is our mascot, thus we are the Shockers) on all of my visits to the campus, random people would wave or smile or nod in my direction as I walked by. Now, I carry that practice on towards almost every person I see not only on campus but everywhere I go. Any place becomes much nicer when the people there are friendly.

Sarah

I love Wichita State, but the thing I love the most is the opportunities to connect with other students. WSU provides students with many activites and events in order for students to get to know each other. I have made amazing friends while at college, and I have Wichita State to thank.

Lauren

The best thing about my school is the airy campus.

Brittany

The best thing about Wichita State University is the availlability of classes. All of the classes I have taken so far really have many different times that make it easy for me to go to school and work while going to school. Being able to plan a schedule that is easy to change takes the stress out of enrolling for classes and trying to make all of the classes work with my work schedule.

janine

The professors.

Rachel

The best thing about my school is that there are many different options for classes. There is more than one campus to take classes at, online, day and night classes are also available to accomodate all students with all schedules and lifestyles.

Camille

The best thing about WSU is the overall optimism and kindness of the faculty and students. They're so enthusiastic about helping you succeed. They treat you like an actual person rather than just a number and they take the time to help you find the right classes and books that are suitable for your major/degree. I have never been rushed through an advising appointment and I've always been asked if I'm happy with my chosen courses. It's because of the wonderful people surrounding this school that I've always felt at home at Wichita State.
