Idaho State University offers students plenty of choices of study, I have seen nothing but successful graduates employed in the field of their choice, the tuition has no hidden agenda, and there are constantly opportunities to be familiarized with everything that is going on in the school and on campus!
Idaho State University also has a great reputation nationwide for the quality of education received! I am an individual studying psychology. in the state of Idaho alone, mental illness is the highest in the nation. Idaho State University is highly recommended in this field of study! It is greatly appreciated to have the opportunity to study at a school that is acknowledged for having a reputable course in a career in psychology.

Professors are incredibly helpful and truthfully care about the growth and success of the student. Lecture / classrooms are very accommodating and provide an intuitive space for learning. The campus itself is not lively in the slightest, and school pride appears to be extremely low when compared to other schools. The dorms are absolutely awful and not worth the money and the required meal plan for many of the housing options. My particular dorm has no AC, so the room felt like an oven for 5 months out of the academic year. For being an online-centric university, the campus Wi-Fi was awful in many spots, most notably in my dorm, leaving me to not be able to work on homework for a room I pay thousands for per semester. Overall, Idaho State Univeristy is an average school with average options to accommodate students with average degrees.
Great place to live, affordable and very safe! I am happy to be living in Boise, Idaho. The school has a brand new osteopathic medicine campus nearby which I will be attending. I am excited to start a career in osteopathic medicine and I am glad to be doing so at Idaho College of Osteopathic Medicine.
