Idaho State University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Brenna

I wish I knew a bit more about how to apply for scholarships and what the people reading them would like to see in relationship to the scholarships offered just for me school.

McKyla

I wish I would have know that there are a lot of stairs and hills to climb to get to your destination, and that most of the buildings don't have elevators.

Alyson

Seriously what I wish I would have known is that ISU is really after the dollar. Advisors tell you anything you want to hear to get you to enroll and stay enrolled. Then they keep encouraging you to apply to a program, only to find out that because you don't work at a certain facility you aren't going to get into their program. Now you've spent all types of money, and that's why I'm transferring to a junior college and will get my BSN at a totally differen school.

I wish I had known how badly I would need a car so I could've saved my money to buy one. I also wish I would have known how little there is to do on campus.

I wasn't completely prepared when I came to this University. But along the way I was able to adjust and better see how to carry out my professional career plan. I do wish I knew more about financial help and scholarships before it came time to need it, however.

I wish I would have known that the school was planning to cut my program before I enrolled in this school.

I wish I would have known more of what to expect with just college in general. I came into this experience 10 years after graduating high school, in the midst of raising 3 kids, and holding a full-time job, but I there is a first for everything and I have really enjoyed the experience so far!
