    For as much as you learn as a student, and for how great most of the professors are you really get a lot for your money. And all the free things that happen on campus is really great. This year I got at least twenty free t shirts.

    I would not trade a single minute or any new friends/connections I have made here at BSU. It has been fun and stressful, but worth every penny each semester.

    Ball State is not an expensive school to attend. In addition, it is conveniently located in a smaller town adjacent to bigger areas like Indianapolis.
