Cleveland State University Reviews

"Overall I had a great experience. The primarily evening format fit my schedule well, and the faculty (especially in advanced accounting and strategy classes) was excellent. The school itself is well laid out and modern, and the buildings are connected with walkways, making getting around in bad weather easy."

"Cleveland State University gave me a good glimpse into the working world and enabled me to start growing my network. It was a hands-on education that proved useful to me when starting my career."

"Cleveland State helped me to become the professional I am today. The professors taught the accounting courses with a focus towards students pursuing the CPA exam. I am now CPA and thanks to the schools focus on networking as well, I have a great career in a Fortune 500 company."

"I enjoyed Cleveland State University due to its diversity of students and student activities. CSU also has partnerships with hospitals in the area which makes it easy to find employment. The only issue I had were that my graduating class basically were guinea pigs for the new curriculum. Hopefully our input improved the program even more!"

"CSU is an amazing school for business students. The professors are real life and give you real life examples. The school itself is clean and state of the art. All services you can have through the school was helpful and devoted to helping you get where you need to be for graduation, career, information."

"I am currently working on my master's in health sciences. As a full time mom, employee, and student, this master's program is completely offered online. I am able to complete all work assignments, while taking care of my family. If you are seeking for a graduate program that allows you to continue the current life that you are living, l highly recommend Cleveland State University. They have many graduate degrees that are fully or partially offered online. This was one of the best academic decisions that l have made.Read Less"

"Cleveland State University is a very unique institution. It is placed almost in the middle of downtown Cleveland and provides you with all the entertainment you could ask for. I will complete my Bachelor's of Science in Chemistry in May 2017 then I will go on to pharmacy school with hopes of becoming a clinical pharmacist. Cleveland State's professors have prepared me very well for my future career, and I think they played a big part in helping me do very well on my PCAT exam. Most of the professors in the Chemistry department are currently conducting cutting edge research of their own which makes them very knowledgeable and engaged in the courses they are teaching. Cleveland State's advisers make scheduling a breeze and they make sure you take all of the courses needed to complete your specific degree. I am very pleased with my decision to attend Cleveland State because I know they have equipped me with a solid base of knowledge that I will need for my future.Read Less"

"CSU isn't a bad university - it's just that there are better options for the cost. If you're considering CSU - I implore you to consider 2 years at Tric C first and then applying to a well known online program like WGU that will cost less and give you a better education"

"This program teaches real life application in a realistic setting. The program is responsive to students needs and offers great networking and internships in the local community. The campus could improve on safety. This college offers an evening program that is flexible for students who work. The scholarships are generous but hard to maintain."

"My experience with CSU Counseling program has been a real journey of self-development. The faculty don't just teach students theories and techniques; there's a large focus on self-reflection as both a clinician and a person. One area for improvement might be the lack of variety in elective courses. There's a Counseling and Spirituality class and a new Counseling LGBT Clients class so I think they're trying to develop a larger offering, but at the moment it could be better."

"One of the main things I love about Cleveland State University is the diversity. Its like having over hundred countries on one campus, which is beyond priceless. No only are the in-state residents hospitable and friendly, they are also willing to lend a helping hand when needed."

"The business school facility is excellent, very modern and clean and in a good location for commuting from outside Cleveland, as well as accessing other on-campus resources. I do feel that many of the core courses could challenge students a little more, in the way that the capstone strategy course does, but nonetheless the educational opportunities are great."

"It's. Great school to grow your knowledge while also continuing to work full time. Very reasonable price compared to other area schools."

"It is wonderful college with full of resources. The engineering department has very good programs."

"It was a good program. I attended when the program was relatively new. I learned a great deal, but because it was a Master's Program it focused mostly on theories. I wish it was more hands on."

"This is a local commuter school that has made a lot of structural improvements in more recent years. They do not offer much in terms of career services, but they have a wide variety of degree programs available in-person and online. The school is getting better, but there are still many challenges."

"I had an opportunity to be educated through Cleveland State University's Education department with the concentration of Sport Management. Under this program I was engrained with the knowledge necessary to pursue a career in athletic administration or management. The program helped develop my research ability through many rigorous courses and broadened my scope of understanding culturally sensitive issues as it pertains to sport attendance and participation. With Dr. Lam as the chair and Dr. Patterson as the Dean of Education it was a tough road because these two professors expect excellence from their students. Dr. Lam is always available, spending many late nights on campus assisting students with research, proposals and IRB requirements for Doctorate programs. Dr. Patterson always welcomes all her students with a heartfelt smile and will do everything that she can to assist you in graduation and beyond. I would wholeheartedly recommend anyone to go through his program if they are looking to grow in the sports administration field.Read Less"

"Cleveland State University is a great school with an excellent business program that has been accredited by AACSB. Offers a wide range of classes to accommodate all types of students with convenient classes on line and in class. In state tuition is most comparable to other colleges and the school also offers payment plans to students to make school more affordable."

"If you would like to have a background in Public Health and Health Administration, a Masters in Health Sciences from Cleveland State University is perfect! You have a choice to earn your degree online, on campus or both! I had great professors and developed lasting friendships. If you communicate your needs/desires someone will come along and assist you in reaching your goal(s). Professionally, I feel completely prepared. I currently work for a committee health center in a management position. I may not always know the correct answer but I do know how to find it.Read Less"

"CSU is a great, smaller college for students that want a decent education for cheaper. The staff in the business building are very kind and caring and try their best to get you as far as possible while obtaining your degree. They advertise co-ops, internships, and they help place you once you're completed with your degree. Overall, a good education for the money."
