    I chose BSU because it has a reputation for teaching mathematics and education. The money spent along with the school's reputation ends up being a great deal money wise while also getting a great education.

    You definitely get what you are paying for. There is an academic achievement center where you can get help for any school work, a writing studio where you can get essays evaluated, and even an IT support if you are having any problems! They even have a career services office where you can go to find your major, find a career and get resume support. All of these resources are included in your fees, and are definitely worth your money!
