My experience was amazing at Okstate! They had a lot of interaction for freshman trying to make friends as well as getting active within the school. Super diverse housing options and same with the dining halls having a wide variety of foods for different cultures, allergies, etc. Something I’d change about the campus is updating things like older dorms/ academic buildings for a newer look but other than that the school is perfect!

Oklahoma State was an amazing experience while there, for I learned so much about my future while also enjoying the life of a college student. From the crazy, but fun town of Stillwater, Oklahoma to the quite, relaxing time in my friends dorm at night, I loved every minute there. Go Pokes!

I did 2 years worth of college while I was in high school to help get a lot of my general education classes out of the way, which I did and when I transferred I started to get my classes setup and everything was all good and then last minute I got an email saying that I had to take a different math class then the one I had already been approved for, which messed up my schedule, which wasn't too bad, just slightly annoying and then they gave me a dorm with 2 roommates when I was told I would only have 1 and so then I had to move dorms and my professors are as mediocre as you could possibly get, but that's all the bad so far, I do really like the campus and it's resources as well as a lot of the people I have met and it's cheaper than the private institutions, so overall I'd probably give it 3.5, but I still have time to change my opinion as this is just my freshman year here.
