About University:
Great commuter school with good qualities.

About University:
You know I started out just hating school in general and flopped out and did whatever. But then It hit me that I had this grand opportunity, Coming back though has been so hard, the financial aid system here is awful. They don't help you at all and they get annoyed when you ask question, Im just confused and they don't explain it, its unhelpful.

Great school. Great medium sized university. Smaller classes. Campus housing is very nice compared to most schools.

About University:
CSUSM is not for anyone seeking a typical college experience. Most students are commuters, so there isn't much of a social scene. Majors are impacted to the point where most students take 5-6 years to graduate. Parking fees are insane, and spots are limited. On the bright side, class sizes are small. You'll come to know your professors well.

About University:
The only pros for me are the profs, which are amazing, and it's close to me. Regarding maintenance, my friend got stuck in the elevators many times, the handicap push buttons are constantly broken down, & ACs are louder than the profs during lecture. The website is never updated. If I could go back, I'd definitely choose another school, no doubt.

About University:
The people here are really friendly people tend to have a smile and open the door for you. Definitely a commuter school with most people living an hour or less away from campus. Many new buildings and structures that make the school look nice. Also there is plenty of parking which is great because the price for a pass is very expensive anyway.

About University:
Everyone here is so close and I run into my friends a lot. The classes are small enough where I can meet so many different people. There's always something happening on the weekends and lots of campus events with free food!! Campus is small enough where I can get to my next class in 15 minutes without running. I wouldn't change schools!

About University:
Love the campus, there are so many clubs and activites to get involved in. Most professors are really helpful and small class sizes are a big plus.

About University:
CSUSM definitely does not get as much recognition as it should. The University Student Union is great place for many things such as food, clubs, studying, and socializing with friends. Class sizes are smaller with an average of 40 students so your teachers really take the time to get to know their students and help you. Definitely consider CSUSM

About University:
The school looks good and they're investing a lot into upgrading the campus. They could focus more resources in the STEM fields though. The math dept is pretty lousy... most the profs aren't avg to awful. I can't complain about my major's professors (Physics) but I think the dept needs to be expanded and they could certainly use new lab equipment
