Wichita State University Top Questions

It's a commuter school, so the university campus appears much smaller than the actual student population.

The Pride they have not only in their university but also in their city!

Registering is difficult, and there aren't a whole lot of people on staff who are willing to help you (and I don't necessarily think this is unique to WSU). Go directly to your advisor when you have issues, and things will get a lot better. It's a good school--really, it is. If you choose to be connected with people you'll have much more of a college experience than those who don't. It's just that this isn't K-State and it's not KU. It's not about college life. It's about getting a diploma. Finally, if you're from out of town, it's "Dubby-Es-You," not "Dubble-You-Es-You." ;-)

It's in the city so there are lots of inter possiblities

Excellent job opportunities related to the industry you are studying, very affordable for the quality of the professors and classes available, and low cost of living for off-campus residence.

School spirit, memorable sports teams, incredible art department and very impressive anthropology dept.

Since WSU is located in the city of Wichita, I feel I have several options for spending my free time. Also, with so much industry, it has been very easy to find a good internship/job that will benefit any career. I feel very fortunate for that.

Wichita State University is a practical school. Reasonably priced, liberal arts oriented and close to the city center. It has everything you could want from a division I school.

We have a great mix of many different kind of students. We also offer many special degrees not found in a lot of other schools around this part of the country.
