It provided the most money to me (scholarships, grants, and loans), CAL POLY SLO is also the best Cal State.

Course Curriculum

9

For my major, I really enjoyed the classes I was taking. These classes came easily to me and only a few were challenging. But I hated the GE's I had to take because I'm not very good at science and math.

Exams

In high school, I took the SAT and ACT in order to apply for colleges. I took the LSAT in order to apply for law school.

Placement

8

They provide many resources such as career fairs for you to get a job. Since I am going straight to law school after this, I have not needed to look for a job yet. But they do try to help to the best of their ability.

Internship

Through my college's internship website, I got an internship working at a Family Law Clinic at the Superior Court. I loved every minute of it. It was not a paid internship (most aren't for law-based internships).

Events

8

I am received numerous awards and honors throughout colleges. These consisted of certificates and sometimes ceremonies celebrating these achievements. I would celebrate with my all of my friends and my loved ones.

Fees

There were university fees. There were fees for the health center. There were so many fees that it was really hard to keep up with.

Scholarship

Yes, I completed the FAFSA. I also applied for school?s scholarships as well.

Examination Structure

It changes from class to class. Some classes are about 3 exams per class. While most of my political sciences classes were more writing based. For my GEs, they mostly consisted of multiple-choice tests on scantrons.

Faculty

8

I had some of the best professors in my political science department.

Hostel

5

I would have stayed on campus only for my first year (since it is required) and then I would have tried to find cheaper housing for the next three years.
