Ball State University Top Questions

It would have been helpful to be able to forecast the economic and political trends of the current day. This school represents a broad diversity of American and international students, and as such did afford me an opportunity for cultural breadth. I feel it would have been beneficial had I received more academic direction throughout the four years in that institution, as a young person can have some degree of difficulty crafting a degree that encompasses more options by the time of its completion.

I wish I would have known exactly what major I wanted to go into but that is why I love Ball State, they give you the opportunity to figure that out.

I wish that I had known just how much money it takes to attend college. I wish I had known to work more and save up for college becasue it costs so much money. My advice to anyone looking to attend college is to go to school becasue the money is worth the education but it is so important to save up.

I wish I had taken chemistry in high school as that would have made college level chemistry less of a struggle. I also wish I had a better idea of all of the little expenses that would become needs for dorm living so I could have saved up the money and supplies ahead of time.

I went to Burris Laboratory ,kindergarten through 12th grade, which is on Ball State campus, so I knew what to expect for the most part. Attending Burris, gave me the opportunity to take Ball State courses while in high school, and gave me full access to all of Ball State's facilities. The one thing I wish I would have been more prepared for, was the cost of living and the high price of books.

I wish I had known more of what to expect. I thought this would be just like high school without someone standing over your shoulder all of the time, but it's a lot more difficult than that. In high school, if you didn't have homework due the next day, you got to go home and not think twice about school. In college, you have to be studying even when you don't have homework to do. I wish that I had to do that in high school. It would have made the transition a lot easier.
