Washington State University Top Questions

I attend a branch campus so the student demographics are not the same as those at the main campus in Pullman. About of my classmates are middle age adults who are either returning to school after a career in the military or another proffesion or taking individual classes to better prepare them for further promotions or job opportunities. The other half of the students fall into the more traditional college student mold. They range in age from 18-25 and enjoy the same things that students at other universities enjoy.

They are more focused and determined to succeed than my classmates in high school.

The students here are very well known as "party animals" but truth is people really are here to study and graduate college and move on and the grades they get are actually really important. If you walk into a library you will see tons of frat guys and sorority girls everywhere.

Undergraduate classes consist of many young and high school students, low maturity rate. Graduate classes are much older students, but generally more considerate and thoughtful.

WSU is a public university, so it is expected for it to house students from differing economic backgrounds, religious backgrounds, social backgrounds and academic backgrounds. On a graduate basis, the university specializes in veterinary medicine, hospitality, business and communication. However, one over-arching theme is a sense of community. Pullman is a small town and therefore is tight-knit. Walking on campus people will say "good-morning" to people they have never met, help anyone having a problem and make a point to interact with other social groups. It is hard to say any student at WSU is a stranger because we all come from the same Cougar family. If you are concerned about finding a niche, don't be because there is a place for everyone.
