Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

With the end of high school growing closer by the minute, many questions may be filling your head. "What career will I pursue?" or "Do I want to stay near home or go far away?" or "What will college be like?" Sam Houston State does a great job helping students find their calling and pursue their dreams with confidence. For any student looking for a school that offers a great overall experience, SHSU not only lives up to this but also exceeds it. Sam Houston is a fun school where it is easy to make life-long friends, while receiving a quality education from instructors who care.

Freshmen come in with a lot of unanswered questions and always receive competent answers. The professors do a good job of teaching valuable life lessons along with sharing their experiences in their field. The faculty at SHSU cares about its students and keeps their best interests in mind by offering guidance and knowledge to all those who seek it. This is made possible because of the great faculty-student interaction, which is pretty unique for such a big university. SHSU has a small-town feel and is full of school spirit, and while there may not be as many things to do here as in bigger cities and schools, SHSU’s campus is close to the town, making it is easy to travel and explore all that Huntsville has to offer. Many SHSU students say that if they were given the chance to do it all over again, they most certainly would.

Academic Community Engagement

A recently created (Fall 2012) center, the Center for Academic Community Engagement (ACE) works to help professors tie classroom material to real-world application. This is more than just community service where you pick up trash. This is taking what you're learning in the classroom and textbook and actually using that knowledge in life. Every wonder and ask, "How is this useful to me in the real world?" Well, now the campus is setting itself apart by integrating, slowly, classes with the community. Yes, this does mean a bit more work, but the knowledge and experience you gain is substantial.

Good but Room for Improvement

SHSU has great labs throughout the campus with printers available. During peak hours and exam weeks, the labs can get a bit crowded. Luckily if you have a personal labtop (or borrow one through the campus library), you can remote login to the campus network and print from that laptop to the lab printers.

Campus Strictness at Sam Houston State University

Not Strict at All!

We have campus security, but it overall the feeling on campus is that it isn't too strict; if anything, there should be more security, as once a year you hear about a girl being raped/attacked in one of the dorms. For the most part, things are pretty laid back, because most people commute--they go to class and then go back home and on with their lives.
