Southern Connecticut State University Reviews

"Southern Connecticut's School of Education is one of the best in the state. The professors are always highly engaged in your learning & invested in your future teaching. There are always events happening on campus and they provide a lot of support for commuter students. You can always find people willing to help you and guide you."

"I graduated with a graduate degree, master of science in community counseling. I went on to get both my LPC, licensed professional counselor and LADC licensed drug and alcohol counselor. I have an excellent job where I work full time in a hospital setting and I have opened a part time private practice. The counseling program at Southern truly prepared me for a successful career."

"It is an excellent University and for residents, it is very affordable. There is no need to anywhere else."

"My experience at SCSU was a rocky one, but what mattered the most was that I loved my major, including the professors and courses. If you focus on that, and getting involved in activities around campus, you will make it through."

"I just completed my first semester as a graduate student for the MA in General Psychology and I absolutely loved it. The courses were interesting and the staff was nothing short of amazing."

"Pros: Incredible internship experiences and a couple professors who almost make the cost of the entire education worth it. Cons: Completely unwilling to compromise (incredibly harsh and opposed to graduate students remaining employed) while providing minimal education not already obtained in undergraduate school supplemented with a grotesque amount of busy work."

"From the very first class I took with my mentor, she believed in me and advocated for me to apply for the program. I was so excited to be accepted into the program and I have produced amazing poetry each semester"

"Graduate program definitely prepares student for career in SLP, real-world applications in clinics, and support in finding and establishing a fellowship following the program. Cons include the fact that is a large program and one could get lost keeping track of their documentation for licensing requirements."

"This program has changed my life in many positive ways. My peers, professors, and supervisors have been amazingly supportive and encouraging. There are always things about a program that can be tweeked and changed for the better, but I am incredibly grateful to have been given this opportunity and look forward to graduating next year."

"The professors within the program are knowledgable and inspiring. They go above and beyond to try and help you achieve your goals. Very up front and forward about what it takes to succeed in the art world.They create engaging experiences pertaining to the curriculum and student interest. Administrative departments however leave much to be desired."
