This is a fantasticQuite BrightMusic - Performance
This is a fantastic school for the money. Yes, tuition has -- and will continue to -- increase, but it is still an incredible value. Particularly for performing arts, the school is considered one of the most reputable in the west coast. Fantastic faculty, staff, and students!

Question
I wanted to transfer out to a prestigiousAverageMath
I wanted to transfer out to a prestigious school, but I had to settle for CSUF because it was one of the cheapest.

I found the classes to be extremely easy and the professors are stupid. They also seem to be so angry because they couldn't get hired at a better school.

When I visited my friends at top tier universities, I looked so wistfully at the wonderful educations they were getting, not only how they were surrounded by wealthy and supermodel attractive kids.

Face it, CSUF. You're nowhere near as good as the top tier universities. Fuck off!

Question
Tuition and fees have gone up, sure.Quite BrightEnglish
Tuition and fees have gone up, sure. But considering this is by far the most affordable 4 year university choice nearby, you really couldn't hope for much better. The quality of education here is STELLAR. I have had exactly two professors who I would recommend not taking, and every other professor I would recommend. And I've had dozens. Social life enjoyment really depends on what you put in. There are plennnty of opportunities to be involved if you try. And it seems the more you try the more you enjoy school. However it is mostly a commuter campus, so it can be tough to find that tight knit community feeling unless you're in a sorority or fraternity or something. But overall I would absolutely recommend CSUF. I've had an incredible time and a perfect balance of challenging and fun.
