Murray State University Top Questions

I wish I would have known years ago about how nice the campus is.

I wish I had known how much fun I was going to have while I was at Murray State University. I transfered from a community college and I might have changed my mind and come to Murray State right after high school if I had known this!

I wish I had more computer knowledge before hand, I have had to teach myself a little bit and it has taken up a little extra time.

I wish I would have known to get know my prefessors more on a personal level sooner, that I had started a study group for each of my classes or got involved in one that had previously existed. I also wish that I would of known that I should have learned how to live be the montra " I'm going to have to get confortable with being uncomfortable." Lastly I wish that I of known that romen noodles will be my best friend and one of my only sources of food, so I should get use to the taste.

I wish I had known how difficult it would be for credits to transfer properly so I did not have to re-take multiple classes. I transferred to Murray State University after graduating from high school a semester early and attending a local community college in Illinois. While I thought it would be smart to take courses closer to home it ended up costing me more money in the long run; I wish I had known Kentucky and Illinois are one of the few states to not have a transfer agreement.

I wish I had known more about scholarships, and how to apply for them. I also wish I had been told how much living on campus differs from living off. Lastly, the most important thing I wish I had been told was to ask questions. Because in college, if you dont ask you may never get an answer. Sounds simple but it is extremely important. A lot of students dont get help, or dont learn something because they are afraid to ask and its a shame because it's not a hard thing to do.

The parking for the school is a nightmare.

I wish I had known how terrible our football team is, how greek oriented the campus is, and how academic advising really worked

Before I attended MSU I wish I would have known that there was not a lot to do. I'm a fun a big town so I'm used to there being a lot of things to do or choose from and Murray is a small town so there's not too much to do.

I wish I would have known that they would treat you like a child.
