My fellow classmates are all support kind and supportive! For my major, I find the homework fun and the teachers super nice!

Sophomore: Boise State has given me some of the best experiences I could have hoped for at college. In high school, I was so self-focused on grades and help from peers but BSU offers so many resources that are easily available to assist me around every corner. Whether that be scholarships, which there are so many, or simply resume help. Not to mention if I'm ever bored, there is always some sort of activity going on every night. You should never be bored at this school. Food insecurity is no issue here, as there is a free food pantry for any student, as well as so many activities with free food. As someone who wasn't into going to sports games very much in college, I can readily say that I attended almost every football and basketball game at home base. They were always so much fun and so full of spirit. The students really go all out in colors and pride. Classes are great and have amazing professors. I've only had one that I struggled with during my time here. I am now a resident assistant!... Read 2,771 reviews

Junior: My first two years with Lewis-Clark State College were a great experience. I earned my associates degree while still in high school, and was able to take all my courses online. My professors were extremely adept at teaching from an online forum. Their expectations were clear, and they were readily available to answer questions. Even through all my classes were online, I was still able to participate in extra activities such as events and writing articles for the Pathfinder, LCSC’s student-led newspaper. In addition, my counselors were extremely supportive. They immediately made clear all of the options and opportunities available to me, and answered all of mu questions to the best of their ability.... Read 532 reviews

Senior: I love BYU-I. It gave me a great environment to grow and progress. The professors are incredible and the classroom size it smaller than the typical university, this enables more one-on-one time with the professors. I have also loved the tutoring center. It a a free resource for students to ensure greater understanding of content. I have made incredible friends and have loved participating in the intramural sports offered. I feel so blessed to have attended a university committed to making knowledgeable students who are ready to make a difference in the world!... Read 6,536 reviews

It hasn't been easy, but it has been worth it and the opportunities that it opens are exponential. The staff cares about you and wants to support your success!... Read 1,430 reviews

Sophomore: I have had an excellent experience so far. I was scared to go back to school after taking a ten year break after high school graduation, but they have helped make it a smooth process, and it feels like I never even left to begin with. The staff always make themselves available when I have questions or need help with assignments, the professors are just amazing with their advice and guidance that they have given thus far. My student advisor, bless her soul, I changed my degree three times within a year and a half, but she stuck with me and still helped me to figure out which classes I needed for each degree I wanted to change to! She even stuck with me through degrees that weren't in her field (until I decided on business, which apparently that degree has to have an advisor that specifically for business). I am happy to be here at this school.... Read 734 reviews

Sophomore: CSI - Golden Eagles located in Twin Falls, ID the home of the Snake River Canyon. This is a small community with lots of outdoor adventure possibilities. The CSI Rec.

Great community college offering many sports teams, Associate Degrees in Health Sciences; Agriculture, Liberal Arts, Business, Criminal Justice, Culinary Arts, Computer Science, RN, Dental Hygiene, Fire Science, Education, Engineering, work development for industry trades like welding, mechanics and solar energy.

Sophomore: I love the campus and faculty. The campus is beautifully placed next to Lake Coeur D'Alene, very close to downtown and restaurants. The food on campus is great, even just at the marketplace cafeteria, but Emery's restaurant, run by the culinary arts students is incredible and well priced! Most of my professors so far have shown great passion for what they teach and provide students with the resources needed to succeed. I have had some less engaged professors, but I still had enough resources to do well. Even in my online courses, I have been able to stay engaged and on track because of the well chosen course material. Considering the great array of courses offered, the return on investment is everything. It is really incredible what this small college offers in outdoor recreation and academic courses. All in all, this is a great place to knock out first and second year level courses for a great value at a right amount of rigor, and to transfer credits to another college.... Read 649 reviews

Sophomore: I am really impressed with the modern approach to a liberal arts education. The professors are really dedicated to helping you achieve the answer to a problem through multiple different lenses, really preparing you for the challenges of the real world. I am really impressed with The College of Idaho's education. The price, however, would be on my list of things I want to change. The college offers a lot of scholarships to help students out and the return on investment is great!... Read 466 reviews

Junior: I am not native to Idaho, but I have now lived here for 10 years. I knew I wanted to pursue a nursing degree and had slim options. Luckily, I work at a local hospital and knew which schools had good and bad reputations. I am one semester into the ARN program and the rumors are true - CEI students are prepared for hands-on patient care! We've learned skills that will serve us well in simulation and clinical settings. We have incredible instructors, many of whom still work in the healthcare field while teaching. Their knowledge is impressive and the one-on-one relationship you can form with them is rare and appreciated. I am very impressed with CEI as a whole. I took many of my pre-requisite courses online and had a similar experience; knowledgable teachers, affordable prices, and great quality education.... Read 86 reviews
