MSU gives you an experience that's on-par with the basic "college experience". For those looking for that "typical" college experience, with a whole street dedicated to greek life, co-ed dorms, loud Thursday nights, community kitchens, international/foreign exchange cliques, traffic congestion around the campus, a downtown "clubbing" scene, and an ample selection of sports-related facilities, it fits the bill. However, if you're not a pro-social type of person, chances are you're going to suffer... Read More here. This school has invested heavily in the business side of what THEY think appeals to college students the most, with new halls, new renovations, new welcome centers, new features everywhere. They focused a lot on the college's development AS a business, but in my opinion, they have not invested in its academic quality. That isn't to say there aren't a handful of very knowledgeable professors on site. But like most universities nowadays, a higher-minded, thinking person is going to experience less college, and more remedial high school, attending this university.

After being graduated for 7 years I feel confident that this institution has quite literally nothing to offer anyone. Tossing aside the fact that if you are currently young your degree will be totally worthless (guaranteed) to any prospective employer due to your lack of experience, this institution itself let me down at every stage of my schooling process. This began with my advisor for the entire science department stating on day one that there was no possible way to finish a bachelors of science... Read More in just 4 years. So she refused to help me schedule and i graduated in the standard time my researching and making sure i would meet my degree requirements myself with no help offered from any advisors. This preceded substandard slightly outdated education that quite literally didnt teach me anything i couldnt have learned in 5 minutes in the field or from any beginners youtube videos. The only possibly helpful courses were in math, which surprisingly is suggested to take those at OTC because MSU staff in those departments are notoriously bad. To put some final nails in this coffin there is the fact that nobody was able to get me placed in any even mediocre position in my field and the only opportunity i got was from begging one of the staff members to interview me for some type of position which ended up being 8$ an hour to work in the middle of nowhere in kansas counting wheat but only for three months of employment. So of course I declined that humiliating offer. Do yourself a favor and just spend your time working on an application for the most entry level job in your field and only go to school if your employer demands a degree.

I was very disappointed in my experience getting my masters as it felt like a step down from my undergraduate program. The professors never respond, won’t show to meetings, do not give appropriate information, I felt infantilized by many professors, asked if I want a grandpa by a male professor who re-enacted an abuse I wrote about in a paper. I’m not sure who to hold accountable to show up and do their job or to treat people like human beings, and to take concerns seriously instead of continuing... Read More to be non responsive or to ask students to not discuss the experience. Students spend a lot of money to learn but often times there’s still barriers inside the classroom and if their advisor or professors are not responsive they’re stuck for the time being and can’t schedule for classes or move forward with school or work. To know that people informed of mental health who are leaders in the community use their knowledge to re-enact abuse, lie, gaslight, and then infantilize students in a group setting so as to set the stage of how other students should treat them or to get out of their work was a scary experience which left me feeling like there are double standards and as if an entire department doesnt even need to worry about doing wrong or not showing up and lying as long as they pick students whom they can infantilize and confuse.

Simply one of the best choices for an MBA. AACSB-accredited, solid class learning, flexible degree path, military-friendly, and low cost [with no higher charge for out-of-state online tuition]. What's not to like? The professors here are better at teaching than those at my $50,000 private undergraduate university. Don't get suckered by high-cost university marketing elsewhere; go to Missouri State. Disclaimer: You get out what you put in; no free rides here. Most of the classes deliver solid knowledge... Read More transfer without the useless busywork a lot of schools use to claim "high degree of rigor". Still, these classes aren't easy A's; you have to work for your degree [as it should be]. Expect to put the hours in.

I went through several feats with this school for three years. Encountered many health issues and they wanted all sorts of evidence for the waivers I needed. The psych program is full of teachings from non African American Psychologists so the program is a waste of time unless your`e going to become a MSW or PSyD. Financial services are crazy! So pricey , even just for online. They have much pride in their football than the learning of their students; all about money. Some of my psych professors... Read More worked with me ; they made the program bearable.

The teacher education program at Missouri State University is the best in the state. The school advertises this, and they do not lie. I was more prepared for student teaching than other students from surrounding schools. The professors are of high quality and now how to teach. The practices are up to date. I was able to quickly find a job at a high-quality school district. If you want to be a teacher in any area, there is not a better school in the state. Missouri State is a big university with that...
