Southern Utah University Top Questions

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

Madyson

Before going to Southern Utah University I wish I would have known how much I was going to love it. I went to a school in California when I started my college experience and looking back I should have investigated the schools closer to home a little more carefully.

Tyler

I wish I would have put myself out there and went to more activities earlier on. I used to be very shy, and rarely talked to anyone, but now I know quite a bit of people on campus and have so many useful connections.

Sarah

I wish I had known all the extra things you have to pay for. I also wish It would be easier to get a job at the school.

Corrin

I wish I would have known more about the climate and the food served at the cafeteria. The food isn't that great.

Megan

Academic personell are very helpful at SUU, so there was really nothing I wish I would have known before coming. They happily helped every step of the way!

Kristin

I wish I had known that it would be difficult to find a job. I would have saved up more money had I known. I applied to about 50 places, both on and off-campus, throughout the year and couldn't find anything.

Ray

The things I wanted to know before is tuitions and available finacial supports more.

Kathryn

The amount of work that is required of Freshmen is absoultely insane! It is almost like an initiation just for coming to school here. The faculty who put this on, say that it is useful to "learn to adapt to college life." Freshmen are required to attend workshops, seminars and other classes that are supposed to help them with their education on top of their regular classes. This is meant to help them and change their major priority to school. My experience was that they did not. I felt bitter towards the school and embarassed because of it all.

Rachel

I wish that I had known that some of the students here are crazy.
