My experience in Chadron State College was overall amazing. The professors are very helpful and patient with you. It's a small town so don't expect the party scene to be great because it's not. That is one of the reasons why I love attending because you have so much free time to focus on your academics more than partying. The people are great and very friendly, if you ever need help they'll come running in a second to come help with whatever you need.
Review Chadron State College
So far I have had a good experience here at Chadron State College. So far I have straight A's, which is something I haven't accomplished in quite some time, so gotta give credit to the professors here on campus. One of my complaints about this campus is how they influence the students here to become comfortable, which is why I constantly here about people procrastinating and instead of going to college to challenge their lifestyle, they keep their old ways by dating people back home. I would like if the college at least influenced some sense of urgency. I do like some of the programs the residence advisers plan, as they get a lot of people together and always result in a fun time.
I absolutely love CSC! I feel like this was definitely the best place for me! CSC is a small campus, making it feel like we are all a big family. I love the atmosphere of the college! It seems as though the professors are passionate about teaching and genuinely care about me and my success as a student and person!
