Frostburg state university is a great college if your goals are a great education in varying topics, boasting award winning athletic programs, award winning academic programs, and a constantly evolving campus. Frostburg state is known for its school of business, nursing, science, astronomy, teaching, and sports science majors. All which have produced award winning and nationally acclaimed professionals in each field. Our school even has an astronaut who was on the space station a couple years ago; Mr. Richard R. Arnold. Frostburg has many opportunities to relax and enjoy the college life, when you’re not working hard you can enjoy camping, hiking, fishing, if that’s your thing, there’s a small mall with a movie theater and plenty of shops, and about 40 minutes from campus is Morgantown WV which has clubs and other venues for students who like to party. Frostburg is a great school to learn and relax when need be, not very hectic and quite quiet.
I see Frostburg as an opportunity with great potential. The campus isn't large, but that's okay because of the smaller classes and an increased learning advantage. I enjoyed my time meeting new people, trying new things, and receiving quality education. The lack of surrounding stores in the area sucks, but, you learn to manage. The foreign exchange program is excellent! There are many students from different countries that study here and it's great to indulge in their cultures & vice-versa. However, not many American students interact with them, so they miss out on a great experience. One thing to note out about Frostburg is that they hear complaints/issues. Instead of ignoring, they work on ways to improve the overall quality of the school. I appreciate that because no one wants to dislike their school. If there is a disruption, it is addressed, and a solution is developed. I'm excited to see the continued improvement of Frostburg, looks like they're going in the right direction.
I truly had a fantastic experience at Frostburg State. I was a very involved undergraduate student who completely underestimated this institution from the start. While attending FSU, I was able to study and intern abroad, hold an executive position on the Student Government Association, write for the school newspaper, hold multiple part time jobs, and so much more. This school, along with its faculty and staff, gave me a wide array of wonderful opportunities. However, I could not go without noticing a sense of disconnect between the student body and the administration. I saw students become frustrated with the way in which FSU responded to certain situations and how financial strains and misplaced priorities often led to a feeling of neglect. With that being said, I also know that I was tremendously grateful to obtain an education that I truly enjoyed at FSU. I am hopeful that this university has even bigger and better things on the horizon for its next generations of Bobcats.
