This is a good local school for those living in the Greater San Jose Area. Many of my friends plan on going here. It offers many different majors, although it is known primarily for its Business, Engineering, Computer Science, Art, Music, and Dance programs. It is a solid school. I don't think you could go wrong at this school.

    It's very diverse. The professors are tough, but it's the tougher ones that you learn from. San Jose State University is the place to become a Spartan!

    This school has a dedicated staff that really strives you to do your best. As one of the most diverse college campuses, you get to learn how to work with others that are different from you. Classes are hard to get into due to budget cuts, but everything is worth while.

    The teachers are attentive to the students and prepared in their subjects. Students are encouraged to think critically by teachers. This is due to class discussions about current interesting topics.

    The campus is large and has some great architecture. There are lots of majors offered, but most are impacted. There is a selection of workshops that offer extra help in certain classes.

    The campus is big, surrounded by trees and it is beautiful. The weather around the San Jose area is usually pretty warm especially in the summer time, which makes it fun to study outdoors. The teachers I have had have all been helpful and want their students to be knowledgeable and to succeed.

    San Jose State University is a beautiful campus where a person could just sit and hang out with their friends or go downtown where all other students are studying or just talking. SJSU provides a variety of activities including sororities/fraternities, clubs, or just being involved in things on campus put on by other students or RAs. This school pushes you to work hard for what you desire along with has many resources on campus to go to such as the Living Learning Center or the Library where teachers and students provide help for all subjects.
