I transferred to WSU as an incoming sophomore, and I have attended this particular university for about a semester now. It has been one of the worst experiences of my life. I was told I was eligible for the highest academic scholarship WSU provides (and I am still currently qualified) due to my GPA from my first year of college. Once I decided to transfer (relying on that academic scholarship), it took three or four months of daily phone calls and emails to get myself ready for the upcoming fall semester. The admissions staff is beyond incompetent, and again, it took three or four straight months of pulling my hair out to become fully enrolled and ready to transfer. Once admitted and ready to move halfway across the state, WSU contacts me and notifies me that due to overpopulation, I will be moving into Shocker Hall (not my choice of dorm) and I will be the third resident of a room meant for two people. Upon my arrival, on "move-in day," Wichita State police searched through my luggage without reason while I was absent parking my car in the nearest parking lot, located half a mile away from Shocker Hall. In clear violation of my 4th Amendment rights upheld by the Constitution of the United States, the police claimed that my bags were left open and that is why they searched its contents. I can guarantee that my luggage was most certainly not left open. Nothing was ever done about this and the staff that I reached out to ignored my concerns. Following this "seamless" beginning at WSU, I found out that WSU will not be awarding me the academic scholarship I am ever so in need of as my transfer process was not completed before the deadline earlier in the year (even though it took me several months of prompting the admission staff to help me enroll and meet all of their requirements). I will never be able to receive that one-chance scholarship now, even though my GPA still meets its standards. Currently, I am paying a TON of money out of pocket each month just to stay in the dorm since my aid fell short. I am struggling to make ends meet and still unsure how I'll stay afloat and continue attending WSU next semester, but WSU wants the outstanding balances paid immediately and they refuse to work with you in any form. I have contacted at least a dozen staff members about my situation but to no avail. I live in a small room with two other roommates, I share a single shower with five other people, I don't have a closet, I don't have a sink, and I have an old broken dresser and desk while my roommates have new and functional furniture. All of which I have sold my soul for and I still come up short. WSU has made me feel unwanted, violated, and completely and utterly cheated. The admissions and administrative staff are supposed to make a student's life and transition easier, not hell. If you are considering attendance at Wichita State University, please, turn back while you still can.

I got both of my graduate and undergrad degree from Wichita State, and I really liked my experience. Wichita State has a beautiful campus, lots of student organizations through which students can get involved, there are always some activities & events going on on-campus. The campus is full of diversity. Instructors are pretty decent, helpful, most of them really care about their students success. Class sizes are not too big for most of the classes. Overall, I had a great experience.

The BEST college experience anyone could hope for. Very personable and I always feel like everyone truly cares about my future and what I will do with the education I obtain from WSU. Other colleges I've attended only cared that I paid tuition, and kept their averages looking ok. WSU is different, they want successful Shockers around the world!

Excellent student to teacher ratio, focusing on high level education. The campus grounds are beautifully maintained. The new baseball stadium is really nice! Some of the older buildings could use facility upgrades, such as bathrooms.

I have been doing my undergraduate here since Fall 2014, and I love this University. We see high rate of diversity here with lots of country related organizations. Really strict and very good for Aerospace Engineering program.
It is affordable and great.
