    For not being a super expensive school, the enjoyment and the academic aspect have been wonderful. It is a great school to attend if you don't want to become swamped with debt by going to an extremely expensive school.

    St. Cloud is very financially worth what you get. Majority of student events are free with your SCSU ID. They also are willing to provide you with as much assistance when it comes to being able to afford it.

    Tuition is at a pretty good rate. Prices on campus for food, coffee shops, corner stores, etc. are pretty decent as well. Living on campus is affordable as well.
