Most Helpful Review for Truman State University

There is a wide selection of classes to choose from and while it is sometimes difficult to get into a desired class there are many more options open. The smaller class sizes really allow you to interact better with your teacher and so get more out of a class.

    Truman is a great school if you are looking for a small campus and low student:teacher ratio. Both teachers and students are typically friendly and willing to help you if needed. I have made many great memories here that I will remember for a long time!

    All of the interactions I have had with Truman staff have been very good. I am planning on visiting the campus, and I am excited to see what they could have in store for me. I am definitely thinking about attending here.

    i believe that truman state university is an outstanding institution for the amount of tuition that the university asks for. it has been a life changing experience, especially since it only has been a year since i have been there. truman state is a wonderful university that has many opportunities for students who want to get the most out of their college experience.

    Beautiful campus, but the town- there wasn't much to see or do. I truly do wish Truman state university was in a different location. Not crossing this school of my future list, but the positives do come with negatives.

    I knew this was where I wanted to be the first time I visited, I can hardly wait to begin! This is a beautiful campus, with a lot of highly accredited programs. The Nursing Dept. has the best student lab I saw on any college visit, and the pass rate/employment rate was higher than anyplace else I found.

    Truman is not a great school. It doesn't live up to the hype, but then again there isn't much hype about it. Many people transfer after a semester or two, the general feeling on campus isn't contentment, it's stress.

    Truman has a beautiful campus, and everyone is friendly. Kirksville isn't big, but the campus tries to make up for that by having plenty of on campus activities. Truman is difficult, but the teacher's are helpful and involved.

    Truman is a very small and intimate university with high standards for education. It is very affordable and there is nobody here that doesn't have some sort of financial aid. Around here it is known as the Harvard of the Midwest or the Princeton of the prairie so that says a lot about it/
