Montana State University is an amazing college! Although there is a lot of students there, it is hard to tell due to the surrounding areas being so spread out. The professors are brilliant, helpful, lenient and very understanding. The staff is so nice, understanding and very helpful. I happen to really enjoy going to school there! However, I have to admit that the school is larger than I realized at first so you need to make sure that, if you are new to the scene, you bring a map to find your way around.
The research opportunities at this college are excellent no matter the major. However, the college does tend to favor certain majors over others with buildings and projects being made and sometimes seemed they cared more about making money than supporting students succes. Faculty is supportive!
I enjoyed my first semester at Montana State. I lived at home off campus, so I can't speak for the dorm life style, but I can give my insight on MSU's teachers, campus, athletics, safety and such. I found MSU's teachers to be very helpful during this difficult time. They were very good about working out zoom meeting, taking phone calls, responding to emails in a timely fashion and offering in person help after class time. The campus is gorgeous! Lush trees, full duck pond, and clean, well kept sidewalks and grass areas. I've always felt safe on the MSU campus. Whether it is early in the morning or late at night there are campus police patrolling and keeping an eye out. And while athletics are sort of shut down, they were always a blast before covid. Overall any student would be lucky to be involved such a gorgeous and welcoming community and campus.
