    Like pretty much every other school in California, tuition and fees have gone up. It's expensive if you live in the dorms, so if there are any local people who can commute, try to take advantage of free living and make the drive to school! Though it's not cheap to go to school here, I still believe that it is still completely worth it anyways.

    The food gets a little gross after a while. I never thought I would miss home cooked meals when I left for college , but trust me you will.

    The food on campus and around campus is all good. There's something for everyone, and it's literally all good food. The only downside is the freshmen meal plans could be set up a little better. Some get a declining balance which makes the most sense and some kids get a daily balance which is hard to manage. Aside from that, there's everything from pizza to pasta, sandwiches and paninis, a salad bar, Olive Oil Cafe, Rubio's, Panda Express, and Starbucks. All of which work on the meal plan system.

    You get over it pretty quickly especially when you see the good old freshman 15 showing up in your gut. Try to go to grocery store and get some healthy snakes because on the weekends you'll probably be hitting up the taco shops for a delicious burrito.

    I am not terribly excited about the dining, but I am sure it is the same here as it is everywhere else. The only thing I wish it did have was a full sized grocery store that you could use your meal cards at.

    Greek life is always something encouraged at SDSU because it allows incoming freshmen to get to know people from all over and gets student involved in the university. You meet some of the most amazing people and are involved in some of the most life changing events for charity, your chapter and much more.

    Greek Life is big here. It's around 32% of the total population. It's something that if you're unsure about it i recommend just checking it out. You might be surprised. It's not something that is necessary for a social life. But they are a community that is a presence on campus.

    Greeks make up a large portion of SDSU population. There are many sororities and fraternities that people can join!

    The Greek life is VERY big at this school. And if you are a girl who doesn't exercise, you might want to get on it because just about every girl here has an amazing body due to the hours they sacrifice at the Arc.
