    Am learning a lot

    I have taken both online and in-person classes at Stark State. The professors here really care about your future and your quality of education, no matter what class type you attend. The smaller class sizes and individual attention from the professors allow any student to have to chance to excel.

    Am enjoying being here

    Stark State offers a great college experience. I am a member of Phi Theta Kappa, which is the academic honor's society at Stark State. It is fun to meet new students through the many programs and clubs, and it also gives you motivation work harder.

    Bang for the buck

    I pay for college without the help of financial aid or student loans. It is possible to do this at Stark State. The flexibility of the school schedules allows me to work full time while being a full time student. Also, the reasonable credit hour prices allows me to get a quality education without breaking the bank.

    Tips for prospective students

    Get involved! Get the most out of your college experience. Stark State offers many different clubs and activities, and you can easily meet new friends. Also, the beautiful campus has many areas where you can easily meet new study partners that can help support you to succeed.

    Great for these types of students

    Students who might need a little help along the way will fit in perfectly at Stark State. The college offers free tutoring at the Tutoring Center- which is open during flexible hours. This center has helped me maintain my high GPA when I felt like I needed a little more assistance in understanding a topic- and it helped me prepare for exams, as well.

    Am learning a lot

    Most of my teachers are amazing people. They make learning a lot easier than it was in high school and are willing to stay after calls for additional help. The teachers are with the students not against them. And with updated technology in every classroom it makes the learning experience a lot better.

    Am enjoying being here

    I've become friends with most of the people I go to class with. The school isn't that far away and I can meet up with people in the area. Everyone is ubber friends (besides the people in the cashiers office) and the teachers are very helpful.

    Bang for the buck

    This school is not a community college. It is a advanced learning atmosphere. Tuition is low but the stuff I learn in my classes is the same things people in liberal universities are leaning. I can complete my degree in a short amount of time for a very low price.

    Tips for prospective students

    Check out everything a school has to offer. From it's classes, teachers, tuition, activities, EVERYTHING. Ask loads of questions and get ever information down on paper so you can take it with you to help remember for later. Don't settle for any college. Set your standards high and strive for great things, no matter the cost.

    Great for these types of students

    Any type of student can fit in at Stark State. Though it's a technology college I go for massage therapy. I love my program and the people in it and it's very advanced learning for Ohio.

    Am learning a lot

    I am learning quite a bit here. Each course provides very decent information and it is hands on which helps me learn more than just pure lectures. I already had basic knowledge in my major so I'm not finding it severely helpful like most people in my classes are.

    Am enjoying being here

    I love the relaxed feeling Stark State provides. All my classes are full of people in my field or a similar field. I enjoy talking to everyone and have made a few trustworthy friends.

    Bang for the buck

    This is an outstanding college for the price. The price is super low and mostly everyone can afford it. It provides intelligent and helpful information for a very affordable tuition.

    Tips for prospective students

    Do homework on time. Show up to class daily. Have good contact with the instructors.

    Great for these types of students

    Motivated. In need of assistance. Shy to outgoing. Basically about every student type fits Stark State.

    I have found this school to be older student friendly. They go out of their way to be accommodating to scheduling around work schedules and disabilities. I have been there for 4 semesters and have yet to have a teacher that was not accommodating to emergency situations, if necessary. They have definitely encouraged me to excel in everything I have accomplished there.

    Tips for prospective students

    Take your classwork seriously. Don't think that you can skip classes on a regular basis and get a good grade, especiallly if you do not apply yourself and make every effort to turn in work promptly.

    Dorm Life

    NONE

    Food and Dining

    Isn't too bad but not available for summer season.

    A small school where you feel part of the school, not just a number.

    Dorm Life

    The campus is in a very nice area and is well kept and clean. The staff is also friendly and the tuition is very affordable! Overall, a great school to earn an associates degree, or just take a few classes and then transfer to a larger university.

    Tips for prospective students

    Some of the programs can take awhile to get into, so be willing to wait to get into the program you want.

    Academic Rigor

    Classes with labs are very time consuming and detailed, other than that the classes are manageable.

    What to do for fun

    Many places to shop and eat are in the area!

    Stark State College is a wonderful 2 year college. Stark State College prepares individuals for furthering their education experiences at a 4 year college. Stark State College empowers individuals with skills and training to be effective and productive in their future professional fields.

    Tips for prospective students

    If you wish to attend Stark State College I would encourage all individuals to take advantage of the many resources they offer. The number of individuals that can attend a class is small in comparison to a larger college which is a great benefit for more individualized teaching. Don't be afraid to ask for help.

    Academic Rigor

    Challenging yet enjoyable. You will leave the classes with a greater understanding of your field or class. As with any class you get out of it just what you put into it.

    Food and Dining

    There are eating areas at the college and many vending machines. You can also get hot meals or just snacks.

    What to do for fun

    There are many organizations and clubs you can join at the college.

    Stark State College is one of the most reasonably priced institutions in my area. The college is expanding and adding new state of the art buildings which I hope does not effect the pricing much.

    Great for these types of students

    This college is great for any student really. This is a very diverse college. Students attend right out of high school as well as individuals who have been displaced from their jobs. Students of all ages attend this college for various reasons. It is a comfortable environment where all is made to feel welcome.

    Clubs and Activities

    I personally am not involved in any due to my 40 hour a week job and my personal obligations to my family but there are many clubs and activities available.

    Campus Safety

    There is security that does patrol all the parking lots during all school hours. Stark State also has their own security office on campus and you can request assistance to your car if you wish to do do.

    Am learning a lot

    I feel the school is geared toward helping everyone achieve their goals, and from my experience, you get what you put in. If you are there for every class as you should be, you will learn plenty.

    Am enjoying being here

    I love, love, love going to school. I love the challenge, the wide diversity of people, and I love the professors. I have had a great experience.

    Bang for the buck

    So much for your money. The only problem with such an affordable school is the wait time to get into the program of your choice. However, it is much better than paying 3 times as much for another school.

    Tips for prospective students

    Challenge yourself to do better than you think you can. I was a C student in high school. I started college after being out of school for over 20 years. I have had nothing but A's in my classes so far and that is what I EXPECT from myself. I feel I am setting an example for my daughters. At least I hope I am.

    Great for these types of students

    All types of students do well at this school. There are kids straight out of high school, to grandparents attending school there. Everyone, regardless of age, ethnicity, and gender should do well at this school. So what are you waiting for? Apply already and do something positive for yourself. I am!
