Just want to get your degree?

Introduction
If you're thinking about getting into a major that doesn't require a "well named" school, then MTSU will probably give you the biggest bang for your buck. It's a value school. Which means it's for any major in which the is simply a ticket to get your foot into the door and your years of experience will speak greater than the degree after that...

Campus Life and Social Life
This is a suitcase school. If you stay on campus during the weekends you are liable to get bored. I was utterly astonished at how many people went home during the weekends. You'll have to be creative when it comes to entertainment. Campus facilities are geared towards being a suitcase school. But all the officials will say they don't want to be a suitcase school. Except they won't keep facilities open longer because no one is around, because there are no facilities open. The big MTSU Paradox. Advertisement
Academics
Unfortunately, unless you are an Aerospace, Recording Industry, or Nursing major... You'll get the short end of the stick when it comes to resources. These are the cash majors at MTSU. Computer Science didn't even have it's own floor, but it was still a great department. But other departments have it worse than Computer Science. Be warned campus distribution of resources is utterly asinine at times. Most professors from my experience are very good at their jobs, but there are still an equal number that are either research professors or are tenured, hence they are god awful.

Student Body
There are a few types of students you'll run into typically.
A. Transfer/Non-Tranditional Students - Probably the coolest of the batch. These people have been to other universities and schools and are very focused on getting their degree. Most well rounded people you'll meet.
B. Yuppie Spawn - These are the kids that could of had a free ride to an Ivy league school if they were too dumb to pass the damn tests. Most of then live around Scarlet Commons (apartment dorms) and you would be well advised to keep your distance.
C. High School Wannabebacks - These people long for the "good ol'" days of high school. Sick, digusting, and highly annoying. Pay them no mind, most usually fail out within the first year. They are also known as Freshbaits.

In Closing...
Not the greatest school in the world, but if you know what you want and you don't need to go any specific to get it... Get it here.
