Stephen F Austin State University Top Questions

I wish I had known to save more money. Alot of things that happen here require money. Financial aid does not cover enough for students who come from various circumstances and situations.

Before coming here I wish I had known to appreciate my classes more and to be more attentive then I was at first.

I wish I would have known that everyone was thinking exactly what I was when I didn't understand what was going on concerning classes, financial aid, registration, etc. and that I should not have been too shy to ask for help.

I wish I had known how hard it was going to be to leave home better. Everyone gets maybe just the smallest butterflies but everyone gets them when going off to college or the moment of the parents going back home after you're moved in. I thought I was ready and be more than ready to be on my own here when my parents went home but I wasn't as ready as I thought. So overall I wish I had just known myself a little better and more ready to go out and meet new people.

I wish I had known more about what I truly wanted to do career-wise. After receiving one degree and starting another, I have finally decided what I would really like to do.

Austin to help guide you in the right direction.

I wish that someone would have explained to me the large difference in community college and a four year university.

At Stephen F Austin I haven?t heard the word curve even mentioned. Instructors have helped me through the classes, but their expectations are much higher.

The science classes are is extremely hard.

Before I came to this school i wish I knew the work-study was so difficult to get in to.
