San Francisco State University

Pros: Great transportation provided by the school, good teachers, nice landscaping, decent tuition rates
Cons: almost no housing, difficult to meet people, expensive to live in the area

I attended SFSU for two semesters, Spring and Fall 1998. Although this school seemed to have a lot to offer I found it hard to make friends and didn't enjoy my time at this campus very much. I was attending ...

Pros: Get the degree you always wanted!
Cons: Bureaucrats! Those crazy bureaucrats!

Since nobody has given a current review in years, I guess it's my duty to give one to all you potential college seekers. Currently, I am a graduate (M.A.) student at SFSU and I was previously an undergraduate transfer student from City College ...

Pros: Cheaper than regular City housing, and not as bad as you might think.
Cons: Expensive, not as comfortable as newer facilities, no privacy.

First I'd like to extend a big hello to my fellow SFSU students. I no longer live in the dorms, but I'm still attending. If you figure out who I am, say hi when you pass me in the halls. Okay?

I lived in Mary Ward Hall during the big housing...

Pros: New housing under construction.
Cons: No housing for you.

There is no housing for you at SFSU.

Not this millenium.

Go away.

Being one of a shrinking set of students who've been granted housing this semester at SF State--I have to gloat--I can sum up the university's...

Pros: Diversity, Seriousness of students
Cons: Social life not "collegey"

San Francisco State University is touted as one of the most diverse learning institutions in the US, and that is a major plus for those students who are looking to have an off-the-beaten-path sort of education. You will not find the fraternity/sorority...

Pros: access to professors and professor attitude, affordability, opportunities, student visiblity, quality of education
Cons: time to graduate, course availability, administration bullcrap synonymous with the CSU system

The professors alone are a reason worth going here.  This is my second degree, the first being from a prestigious university.  I'll call the prestigious university PU (hehe), and I'll draw a few comparisons.  Price:  even with the ...

Pros: diversed school, friendly and helpful people
Cons: isolation

Social Life in San Francisco State?? Well.... for one thing, I like this school because it is very diversed. There are many kinds of races and ethnicity; everyone gets along well. Of course, in college, people tend to stay away from clicks and get...

Pros: good business program
Cons: no social life

I am a freshman here at San Francisco State University. First off, I am from Connecticut, and this was the first time I've been to California on my own. I had never taken a bus before coming to California. The school's very average. Indeed, people...

Pros: nothing
Cons: everything

As a student of the cinema department at sfsu i have endured torture like no other student at sfsu. this school is touted as having a great cinema department with excellent resources and terrific teachers. that was the word on the street. i've learned...

Pros: Good internship experiences, focussed on preparing you for a therapy license
Cons: You'll be busy, though there's more clinical than academic work

The Graduate Counseling Department at San Francisco State grants an MS in counseling and trains you in the coursework required for the MFT (or LMFT), the Marriage and Family Therapist license. I was a student here from 1995 to 1997, and I strongly...

Pros: Convenience, community, connections
Cons: Can be loud and difficult to study

SFSU offers affordable housing for students of all ages. There are two residence halls - Mary Park and Mary Ward - which feature dorm rooms equipped with furnishings for two people. In addition to the dorms, the school also provides a variety of ...

Pros: choices, culture foods
Cons: nothing

I love the food in San Francisco State. I haven't tried everything, because I'm trying to fight off the "Freshman Fifteen". There's food everywhere you go to. When you walk from one class to the other, there's at least 3 food places you see...
