Ball State University Top Questions

Ball State is lacking in explanation of graduation responsibilities for their students. I often had to figure out required responsibilities on my own, which was stressful and not very efficient. I understand everything that was expected of me now, but a trial and error process is not always the most conducive enviroment for success.

How to study for college classes.

Before I came to Ball State University I would have liked to know what clubs/sports were available and what other activities there were on campus.

I wish I would have known the clubs and activities you could join. By the time I got to school and got settled in many of the clubs were not accepting new members because the deadline date had passed. I wish I could have joined a club before starting school so that way when I started I could have began immediately making new friends.

I wish I would have taken more placement tests

I wish I would have known how important it was to really focus on classes in the beginning instead of focusing on my job and my friends more. I also wish I would have learned how to study more effectively.

How to study better on my own

I felt that I knew a lot about this school before I came.

That laundry was $1 to wash + $1 to dry... each load.

I wish I would have known a little bit more about the food choices before I had chosen a meal plan. I also would have like to know more about our academic advisors and how to change one if we needed to.
