    The staff is always very helpful here and the Professors are knowledgeable and attentive. They create a great learning experience that allows the students to excel.
    Am enjoying being here

    The weather is nice and the campus is beautiful. The ducks and geese add character to the campus. The people are friendly and the whole campus has a home-y feel.
    Bang for the buck

    The college is very student oriented. They try to help their students not only pay for college, but they help them get the most for their money.
    Tips for prospective students

    I encourage all prospective students to tour the campus because thats how I fell in love with it.
    Great for these types of students

    This college is great for students that didn't want a huge campus, but they don't want a small community school either. Any student that loves to get involved in their campus will love this school.

    Am learning a lot

    All the classes are small so students get a lot of one on one with their professors. Professors are very easy going and approachable they are always willing to work with. Students just need to talk to them. We have tutoring center that is for free for students to use so there's always somewhere to look for help. There is so much to learn not just inside the classrooms. There are a lot of different organizations on campus that a great for networking and lots of leadership programs available for the students. It's a great school.

    Am enjoying being here

    I love being at Stan State. The campus is small and cute. Its like a little taste of nature. It's a very relaxing place. Sometimes when I want to relax I go for a walk or sit by one of the many lakes and just look at the ducks, geese and all the trees. Not a crazy campus. Great place to focus on school. The people here are great they're pretty welcoming and friendly. The dorms are in gated community so it's very safe. There isn't a lot to do especially on the weekends but if you have friends its fun to just hang out. For me it's been the best decision I've made.
    Bang for the buck

    Since the school is very small it's as if your paying the price of a public school but the quality of a private school. The school really tries to get the most out of the budget. If you go to most of the events on campus you will totally get your moneys worth.
    Tips for prospective students

    Come check out the campus see it you like it. Once you've decided to come here make sure to get involved on campus it opens so many doors. If you can I highly advise doing Student Leadership Program during the summer you'll meet so many new people.
    Also make sure you go to as many events at school because all the events we put together it's for the students and you're paying for it through ur student fees so get your moneys worth by going.
    Great for these types of students

    If you really want to just get out and want a new scene or if you want a peaceful small school its perfect.

    well, this school is amazing. it makes me feel like i'm home and i really love it here. i couldn't chose more wisely than this.
    Tips for prospective students

    some tips would be to try hard in school. the main point is to never give up and never stop. keep trying and trying until you reach your goals.
    Academic Rigor

    my best bet for the campus academic rigor is really good. i mean all the staff are really helpful and most of them know how to help and attend your needs. same goes for the students, there behaviors of learning are those of positive ways and thinking.
    Dorm Life

    the dorms here are excellent. even though they are really expensive it is more convenient. there are lots of benefits if you live here.
    Food and Dining

    here we have many options of food places and dining. we have the village cafe witch is personally only for dorm students, which is pretty cool and the food is not that bad. also we have the main dining where i often go. there, the food is great. and we have pop's and mom's as well. over all the food is amazing.
    What to do for fun

    well many of the students live the bad life. i mean they go out and they party and what not, but i'm actually the opposite of this. i am a calm guy who loves playing soccer. so most of the time you'll see me playing soccer. i play in two teams in school(intramuals). i also play video games.
    Campus Safety

    the best!!! i feel protected.

    The teachers here are very good at what they do, and they really want you to succeed. So far all of my teachers have offered to help me whenever I needed it, via email or going to their office. There is also so many free tutoring programs on campus you lose track of how many there really are.
    Am enjoying being here

    The area is really nice. Great Weather! It is located in downtown San Jose but everything is kept really clean and safe.
    Bang for the buck

    As compared to what some of my friends are having to pay for their CSU room and board, my is really affordable. And the on campus apartment I live in is very nice! About $3500 for a single bedroom in an apartment with a full kitchen and living room. Only shared with 4 other people. There is also so many free activities such as movie nights, free movie rentals, free air hockey, pool, ping pong, Foosball, and much more!
    Tips for prospective students

    This school offers everything you really want. If you want to party, the school is known for their Football tailgates. If you don't want to party, there is plenty of ways to have fun otherwise and the overall attitude of the campus is to be courteous and friendly to one another. No one will judge you or make fun of you for the way you are. This is an amazing school and everyone here is friendly. Just make sure you know when and how to do your work. That's the reason why you are going to college!
    Great for these types of students

    Great for people who are very determined upon their work and what they would like to accomplish, but also likes to have fun when the hard work is done.

    Bang for the buck

    This school is not as expensive as the other California State Universities and the Universities of California.
    Tips for prospective students

    Read your textbooks, and take notes on what you read in your textbooks. Study your notes every day.
    Great for these types of students

    This is a good school for people who have learning differences and for people who don't have learning differences. This is a good school for people who want to expand their knowledge.

    I love this school. Small classes and teachers that are friendly and willing to help you in any way they can.
    Tips for prospective students

    If you are a transfer student I suggest visiting the school and seeing a councellor to make sure you dont repeat any classes or take more than you need. For incoming freshman make sure u look closely at your classes to get done faster. Good luck!
    Academic Rigor

    Teachers are interested in you understanding and passing courses. Take advantage of tutors you aren't going to understand everything all the time and thats okay.
    Food and Dining

    Good stuff. Starbucks and delisious food in the dining hall
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    Stanislaus has a tradition called Worrior day where we show our school spirit with a huge carnival and music performances.
    Clubs and Activities

    Clubs for anything!!
    Campus Safety

    Stanislaus is a very beautiful and peaceful campus, with plenty of new buildings it certainly feels like you get what you pay for. There are many programs and clubs to get involved in. The teachers are helpful and knowledgable.
    Tips for prospective students

    Joining clubs and intramural sports is a great way to make friends. The school is pretty small so after a while you will begin to know a lot of people and eventually everybody becomes a friend of a friend.
    Academic Rigor

    While some classes are easy, the majority of classes I've taken in the chemistry department and the psychology department are extremely challenging. The teachers expect a lot out of their students, but are always willing to help.
    Dorm Life

    I love the dorms! I made some of my best friends while living in the dorms. There are always activities going on, and we were always getting to know eachother and hanging out.
    Food and Dining

    The food is pretty good, but it can get expensive, especially if you eat in main dining, or the Warrior Grill often.
    What to do for fun

    There isnt to much to do for fun in Turlock besides going to the movies, but the Student Union and Warrior Activities Center is constantly putting on activities.

    I give this school a 9 out of 10. It is a great school for people who enjoy a calm learning environment. The computer system is also extremely easy to navigate, so adding, dropping, and wait listing for courses is easy and user friendly. I would recommend it to anyone.
    Tips for prospective students

    Pay attention to deadlines, and check your student email constantly. All important e-mails will be sent to your student e-mail account, not your personal e-mail account.
    Academic Rigor

    It is a four year university, so professors really expect you to learn and apply what you learn on exams. The work load varies depending on different professors and courses, but dedication must be applied to pass each course.
    Food and Dining

    It can get crowded during the busiest lunch hour, but everything moves pretty quickly overall. There are many places where food is sold and is distributed around campus. The cafe sells burgers, sandwiches, and salads. The cafeteria sells a larger variety of different foods from Mexican to Italian to wraps and salads.
    What to do for fun

    There are many different clubs to join on campus. Being an active part of the university will increase networking capabilities between professors, other students, and many organizations.
    Great for these types of students

    Nursing students are highly recommended for CSU Stanislaus. there is an amazing nursing program offered for undergraduate student and student who want to receive there BS after being a nurse with an AS degree.
    Campus Safety

    Campus security has provided emergency stations through out campus that alert for help if needed. University police also circulate the campus throughout the day and respond to calls immediately.

    This was the smoothest transfer experience I could have dreamed for. Everyone on campus has been completely dedicated in helping me meet my academic goals and making me feel at home.
    The entire staff on campus has been personally friendly and helpful with the main goal in helping me meet my educational and personal goals.
    Tips for prospective students

    I would recommend you ask as many questions as possible and don't hesitate to ask for help. Everyone on campus in every department is there for you and you only! There is no stupid question other than the one you didn't ask.
    Academic Rigor

    Academically the staff is the best I have ever had the pleasure in learning from. The instructors are personal with you, and dedicate in giving you as much time with you as possible so that they can help you be successful. They are compassionate and dedicated people,everyone of them. If you want to meet with them they are always there for you. It is their goal to serve you to make this the best learning environment for your success.
    Dorm Life

    I don't live on campus, but many of my classmates do, and I see them all happy and well adjusted and pleased with the environment.
    Food and Dining

    The food is exceptionally great! You can eat as healthy as you wish at an affordable price, with many day specials that are sure to tantalize your tastes and satisfy your tummy.
    What to do for fun

    Every month there is an outside get away activity for all the people who want to have fun to join in on, and if your afraid of people and feel you can't hang out with that many people, there is always special little events to do. There are get together and games to play in the dinning hall. Ski trips and rafting to do. Every month there is an activity posted for sign ups to go have fun. There is a park like setting if you just would like to sit outdoors and listen to the birds and the water falls and watch the ducks and geese you can do that to.
    Bang for the buck

    I interviewed the UC Merced next to my home to but choose to attend California Stanislaus State after careful consideration. I choose to drive 30 minutes a day to Stanislaus State, why? because it was $$$ less than a UC and it is beautifully laid out. when you compare all your loans, and what it costs to attend college, the cost differences between the two schools was unbelievable! I believe this school has the biggest bang for your buck! I am so glad I decided to attend CSUSTAN over any other school, Price wise is just a small part of it
    Great for these types of students

    This school is awesome for everyone, it doesn't matter who you are, how old you are. You are sure to feel free to be you, and comfortable at this school.
    Clubs and Activities

    There is always a club activity that you can join that fits your needs and desires.
    Campus Safety

    We have an awesome campus police system and everyone looks out for everyone else. I never felt safer!

    here at csu stanislaus you are provided a real college-life experience with the comforts of a smaller campus atmosphere. with over 90 clubs and organizations, there's something for everyone; not to mention 14 division ii athletic teams and over 100 majors to pick from! schedule a tour at http://www.csustan.edu/admissions/visit/ and see what being a warrior is all about! :)
    Tips for prospective students

    one tip that i wish i had is to research the kind of things you are interested before you apply, then you can see what you are looking for and what schools offer what you desire. for example, i was interested in going greek, so when applying to schools, i made sure that they all had sororities with a diverse sisterhood!
    Academic Rigor

    csu stanislaus is very difficult, especially in the science department. however, the professors here are all about the students and making sure that each person gets their one-on-one time. here at csu stanislaus the average class size is 30:1, while the average student to teacher ratio is 21:1! where else can you find that?!
    Dorm Life

    the dorms at stan state aren't like your traditional communial bathrooms, but instead they are apartment style, where all uperclassmen dorms have four individual bedrooms, a huge bathroom, good size common area and a full-size kitchen! as a freshman you ca have the option to go apartment style (with a kitchen) or suite style (without a kitchen). also as a freshman you can decide if you want your own bedroom, to share with one person or to share with two people!
    Food and Dining

    the food and dining is delicious! the dorms food is made by the same company that makes the food on campus, so everything is very trustworthy! also the options that are provided here is unimaginable!
    What to do for fun

    with the dorms they offer programs constantly throughout the month, and a lot of the events are going on during the weekend! also the school puts on weekend warrior program, where they take students on trips all over the central valley area. transportation is always included and the people you meet and memories you make are unforgettable!
    Bang for the buck

    i believe stan state is pretty reasonable about the cost of things and how they go about charging people. also i think they do a great job at including a lot of costs into tuition so it's not a ton of small, annoying payments.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    i've never seen any unusual traditions, but alot of things that take place on campus occur in the quad because that's the center of campus and where most students hang out in between their classes.
    Great for these types of students

    csu stanislaus is a great place for studnets who are trying to find their independence for the first time, or if they're solidifying their adulthood. it is a small community but there is alot to offer and quite a few cool places, especially in dowtown turlock.
    Clubs and Activities

    as i mentioned earlier, csu stanislaus offeres over 90 cubs and organizations on campus (including greek life). there is a club for everyone, but if there isn't, then you have the option of creating that club!
    Greek Life

    greek life was probably one of the greatest decisions i could ever make. no matter where you go, join a national greek fraternity/sorority! the bonds you make, the networking opportunities you are given and the fun you will have is priceless!!!<3
    Campus Safety

    we actually compete with somona state every year for safest csu. we have both public safety our university police department, and turlock police department on our side...two police forces working together to keep our campus safe!

    the campus is very community oriented in respect to students and professors. it also gives a good reflection and resemblance of the diversity we have in the central valley, including the emphasis on careers that are on demand in its respective area.
    Tips for prospective students

    there's a lot of history behind the existence of this university. i would recommend getting to know the history-it helps out a lot. not just knowing the campus but also the interesting facts behind it! i wont say it here since it's part of your research!
    Academic Rigor

    for graduate students, the rigor can be intense depending on the number of classes of course. however, the professors really work with you as a student and understand that most of us work full time treating us as leaders - not students. that eases up the intensity. the homework; well that always depends on your challenge you're looking for.
    Dorm Life

    i have not lived in the dorms but i have seen them and scoped them out myself for consideration. the campus offers many priveleges for students living on campus including free copies, bbq, pool, additional recreational space and more. the rooms are spacious, neat and ergonamically friendly.
    Food and Dining

    the city of turlock has a great array of food, cuisine, fast food and tastes for all. my personal favorite is panda south-chinese cuisine on monte vista avenue (same avenue of campus, a couple blocks down).
    Bang for the buck

    my favorite part of the 'buck' is the student recreational center - it's big with plenty of activities scheduled for everyone's taste. also the health center offers easy to access services. those are two services i've used. your warrior card can also be linked to your washington mutual card for easier banking!

    i have to say the csu stanislaus has campus safety personnel driving carts around campus, especially at night time, to take you to your car. you don't even have to ask, they offer!

    the classes are challenging but they are doable. it is good to be challenged so that it prepares you all the more for the real world of business and how things work. also, the challenges in the classroom are meant to enhance the student in their future career.

    The Professors here focus on helping their students succeed. Especially with the small class sizes, your comfortable enough to get that one-on-one help. Not only that, the campus provides a Tutoring Center free of charge which has helped me through out my difficult classes.
    Am enjoying being here

    The campus itself has a very relaxing atmosphere which gives you that tranquility you need to stay focus in your studies. The beauty of the campus also is very pretty through all seasons of the year. Besides these there are various ways in which a student may be involved on campus to where they are able to connect with other students and acquire any help they need.
    Bang for the buck

    Tuition is on the rise for all educational systems in California. Stanislaus, however is fairly cheaper then most CSUs. With the help of financial aid and scholarships, students will be amazed at how much financially help they can receive. Don't be afraid, college is worth the investment!
    Tips for prospective students

    I challenge students to visit the campus and see it for themselves. I came here before my freshman year for a weekend event that Housing offers for prospective students and fell in love with it. But, keep your options open picking a campus is a big decision.

    Am learning a lot

    I am currently in my second year taking 20 credits at this university. Last year as a freshman I felt I learned, understood, and retained more than I expected to. This semester my classes are more difficult I feel that I am always learning something new. I feel that I have learned new ways to study and better understand how to read a professor and figure out their teaching style in order for me to do better in their class. The academics here are making me challenge myslef and realize I can do more than I think I am capable of.
    Am enjoying being here

    In the beginning I did not like this school at all. It was something that I was not used too whatsoever. It is not in an extremely large town and to the naked eye there is not much to do. It is a big commuter school so that makes campus pride a little non-existent, but you have to fnd the right group of people to be around. I got involved on campus and now attend almost all of the events and am enjoying myself tremendously. I love it now. GO WARRIORS!

    Unfortunately over the last couple of semesters the tuition has been increasing due to budget cuts, but that is the economy we live in now. This school is very inexpensive compared to others in the state. The main goal would be to get financial aid, which there are plenty of opputunities, you just have to go looking for them.
    Tips for prospective students

    Really research all the schools that you are thinking of and take campus tours. This school may not look that great in it's first impression, but if you give it a chance it will suprise you. The faculty is very helpful and want you to succeed. Most of the student population is extremely friendly and willing to help new students. We have good athletic teams to support and games are a blast.

    I would say it is great for commuter students, but also students who want to live on campus.

    As a student in the Theatre Arts program, I have learned a lot about my craft. The small size of the school allows for more learning opportunity and a hands of experience with your chosen field.

    The campus is beautiful! There a tons of trees. It is very well kept up and they are constantly improving.

    Less than $5,000 for the year? Yes please! Why pay a school the amount you would pay for your first house when you could easily attend a University for only a little more than a junior college.
    Tips for prospective students

    Tour this school. Stepping onto campus may make you fall in love with it. Also, talk to advisers and counselors to see if the programs available would suit you. CSU Stanislaus is a very good place for people who have a lot passion for furthering their education. Get to know the professors, they are wonderful!

    Liberal Arts majors looking to accreditation, pre-nursing program (impacted), Theatre Arts majors (I would know!), commuters, and students who are still trying to figure what it is they want to do with their lives.

    The cost is going up next year but so are all State Universities.
    Tips for prospective students

    Don't start getting lazy after Thanksgiving break because there is still Finals and other projects due. Also live in the dorms if you can because it is worth it. If possible don't buy books in the bookstore because they are expensive.Instead buy them online or used.
    Great for these types of students

    Students that don't want to go to a university with a big campus or a small campus. It's also very easy to get around the campus. Close to many great places.

    All the staff is very helpful especially the professors. They make it a comfortable environment for you so that you do not have to be afraid to approach them and ask for any help needed. A very student friendly environment that makes learning very enjoyable! There are also tutoring centers which have proven to be very helpful and a nice library with many places to study.

    Check out the campus ahead of time to make sure it is what is right for you. Also remember school is the number one priority but also remember to make it an enjoyable college experience. Try to meet new people by joining an organization on campus.

    Students looking for a very student oriented campus. A campus that is moderate in size, not too big or overwhelming and is very nature oriented. In a modest community.
