The professors at Salem State University are supurb. They all know the subject matter that they're teaching, incorporate many different styles of teaching, and care about their student's progress.

The culture of the school is very diverse. Commuting to the school is very easy. At night it is very quiet, so studying at night will not be a problem. The library is open until midnight, Monday through Thursday. The school is located next to convenient stores, easy to get snacks and other materials. Salem State College just became Salem State University, and since the college is a public school, the college bill is cheap.

The best thing about my school that I've seen so far just from the visits is the diversity of students that attends. Diversity is very important to me because I would like to have as many experiences as possible while living on a campus.

The best thing about this school is it's diversity. There are so many different people here and you are able to meet so many new and interesting people. Also, the school is very student-friendly. Everyone is willing to help out and the student life here is very good. I would recommend this school to anyone wanting a good college, because of its diversity and its fair tuition rates.

Elizabeth

Salem State is surrounded by lush history. The school makes it easy to learn about everything regarding the Salem Witch Trials, which are very interesting. Walking outside of the college, you can see some of the first houses built in America, places where importat historical evens took place, such as the Hose of Seven Gables which is right down the street. There is always something to explore here.

Lindsay

I like the clinical rotations in the nursing program. Each clinical group is small, about 6 students, which allows us to form great relationships with our professors and our peers. It also allows us to get extra help whenever we may need it.

Nahomie

The best thing about the school is the many groups that they have at the school. You will be able to find a group you can join. Also, you meet friends through these groups.

Allyson

The best thing about the school is definately the cost. Also, there are people from all over that attend college here, so it is very racially diverse. It is a huge commuter school, so expect many snow days in the winter time.

Angela

Definitely the community and how all the students seem to feel that and encourage it in their own way. I felt welcomed into a new community the minute I arrived here. I've never had such a great social life until I moved here and I feel at home here. If it hadn't been for that, feeling welcomed and part of a whole, i probably wouldn't have continued with school here.

Amanda

The best thing about Salem State is that it is a completely middle of the road school. It's competitive, but not overwhelming, big, but not too big, close to Boston but not right in the middle of a big city, and culturally diverse. For such a large conglomeration of people from all over, there is a real sense of community, because everyone finds something that reminds them of home.

Kayla

People are very socially aware.

Emily

I love my dorm.
