What Students Are Saying

Some classes are hard and some classes are easier than the hard classes. Don't come here if you don't want to work for your education. No matter what, you will have time to do other activities.
Jessica from Maryland Heights, MO
Truman is known for being an academic school. The course work itself is challenging, but it's not impossible. There are plenty of free tutoring resources found around campus that students are encouraged to go to. The tutors and professors care and are very helpful in helping a student understand a difficult concept. Being a liberal arts school, you take a variety of courses that cause you to do a lot more critical thinking. It is tough, but very worth it in the end.
Jessica from Florissant, MO
The classes are difficult.
Danielle from O FALLON, MO
Their academic programs are very good and strong in work everybody seems like they want to be there.
X'zaviaun from Columbia, MO
It depends on the classes you take obviously. I was someone who studied a lot in high school, so having to study in college as well was not much of a struggle for me. If you aren't used to studying, I suggest you learn how!
