The best part of the program is the dedication of the faculty and the extensive in depth training that you receive.

Degree: Veterinary Science
The veterinary program at WSU is amazing and supportive. The initial entry into the program begins with a 3 day trip to a nearby lake camp where the students get to interact and learn about one another in smaller group settings. These groups are retained in a specific class during the first semester, allowing students to build strong friendships before classes even start while still providing room for branching out and obtaining new friends and useful study groups. The doctors and professors are... Read More

Washington State University provides top-notch education and resources for those pursuing a MBA. It is highly competitive in terms of acceptance and the program is intense. The faculty and advisors are very helpful and truly have your best interest at heart. The only con is the application process. The advisors are great but they want a lot of information and their standards are extremely high.

For the speech language pathology program. The program would be better if there was more equal distribution of workload on the students and faculty. Some things are unorganized. The selection process could use an interview. Overall, my education is valued and my clinical experiences are helpful.

Department is small, which can be both a good and bad thing. The program is easy to get into relative to its quality. Students typically don't have problems find jobs or getting into PhD programs. Very affordable student housing. Groceries are too expensive unless you have a car to drive to Idaho.

I'm in the On-line MBA program and WSU has put together an awesome learning experience. For the most part classes are interactive with lots of support from the faculty and plenty of opportunities to network. The on-line facilities, such as the library, are second to none. Can't say enough good about the experience so far!

My particular program in Political Science,I feel, is outstanding. Whether it is the MA or the PhD program, the staff is incredibly supportive and cares more about your success in what you personally want to accomplish than in want they think they want for you. Additionally, the camaraderie between the graduate students is excellent. There is none of that cutthroat competition that I sometimes hear about in other schools or programs. The downside is of course, the undergraduates and rural surrounding... Read More

Degree: Political Science
The Political Science department is very small and comes with advantages as well as disadvantages. The biggest disadvantage is that only a small variety of graduate courses are offered. However, due to the small size the faculty are very accessible and if you have a direct interest in the field of political psychology and international security the variety of classes is more than sufficient.

The program fosters a unique atmosphere of collaboration and support. Because it is so casual in nature, there is a tendency to forget to inform the grad students of necessary information-- leaving us scrambling at the last minute. The town of Pullman is small and very cute. For a grad student who wants to concentrate and not be distracted, it is perfect. When you are done working and want to think about something other than school, you are pretty much out of luck.

I really love my Clinical Psychology program because it is very strong and supportive (great faculty, variety of pertinent classes, and structure of the program)! Plus, the small-town atmosphere is great for grad school - minimal distractions!

As an international grad student I truly feel the professors and instructors are there to help me be more successful. They listen and talk to you, like a friend, with more professional views, especially in your field of study. Also they encourage you to be more active in and out of class, make you feel accepted. The college town is pretty safe, from my personal experience, since most of the residents here are college students. The traffic is fairly light, and more importantly, people drive much more...

If interested in graduate school make sure to have a program and advisor that will support you and provide opportunities for your future. In the mean time the PNW is a diverse place with much to see and do but most of it requires long drives.

I am a new graduate student that relocated to Washington State to focus on a particular field that the school no longer offers. Didn't receive that memo. But other opportunities have presented themselves.
