Though some of the classes can feel intimidating, especially the 300+ student courses, most professors attempt to help students feel comfortable. Office hours are plentiful and easy to find, and communicating through email helps vastly. CSU offers some great extra help in the TILT building for those extra tricky classes.

The academics at Colorado State University allow students to grow in their preferred field of study. While it can be frustrating during one's first couple years of having to take classes that don't pertain to his/her major, it does get more interesting once General Education courses and Prerequisites are out of the way. Students begin to learn more about what they actually came to college for-- to become professionals in a selected field of study. Along with classes becoming more enjoyable, the class sizes decrease in size, which, I believe, allows for more personal growth as a student; professors get to know students by name and build relationships that ultimately help students to reach his/her maximum potential. It isn't uncommon to see students at CSU putting numerous hours into studying and homework, whether that be in different Halls or in the Morgan Library.

The professors are very friendly for the most part. Classes are usually too large to have every professor know your name though. Class participation is definitely common in most classes, and it is common. I think the school has very reasonable academic requirements, and CSU has a lot to offer.
