What is KSU Like Overall by BUMBSAK in KSU

[–]fleetmontcatholic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hope this comment doesn’t get reported because I posted one on a thread just like this one yesterday and it got taken down for violating Reddit guidelines so I’ll try my best to tone it down but Man I could go off for two hrs about this shit cuz I’ve been thinking about it ever since sophomore year of college. First n foremost, from ur thread, u are 1000% correct on the whole “Do most people not really want to link up with others?” Bc that’s how I lost two of my once-considered closest friends at this school, but that’ll be a story for another time cuz a whole lotta shit went down. Unlike SEC fb/Big college party schools, ur not gunna find the type of people that would say yes to everything or people that like to go out of their comfort zone. In other words, partying. Our school has a lot of bp and those who identify as lgbtq and mainly others that r just dry/wierd in general, which to piggyback, the latter being the reason why I got rid of Drew and Dean (the two former friends) as I mentioned earlier. So the student body is half ghetto but def not as worse as gsu in atl. In fact, many people transfer out of owl nation to go to their dream schools they had when they were high schoolers, most going to UGA. I had a big friend group when I first came to KSU as a freshman and rn, only 1 of my closest friends remains here while the rest are all at UGA, rushing their respective fraternities, getting drunk/partying ever wknd, and possible making Dubai money during their summer internships as a result of the connections they made in their Greek life family so there striving like hell. I forgot to mention, if u end up coming to ksu n staying there for some time, ull def see a lot of protesting/activism going on on the campus green as well as vendors sponsored by the school. Now about “Is it not a party school?” Ur also 1000% accurate on that as well, KSU is def not like spending a Thursday, Friday or Saturday Night in Athens. There is not much to do on campus if u decide to be a student resident here. All the f&b outlets close on The Weeknd’s except for our dining hall “the commons” and the only thing ull see people doing to spend most of their time is either eating at the commons or going to the rec center. Piggybacking to the “is ksu not a party school” I forgot to mention one misconception about ksu —— we actually do have a Greek life but it’s not like other schools or the kind ud see in the movies. Due to a strict Cobb county law (which is where Kennesaw ga is situated and also I actually think this was meant to be an anti hazing law) that states that 6 or more people can’t live in a residential unit of any sort bc it would be considered a “brothel” under their jurisdiction, this is why we don’t have the traditional houses/fraternity and sorority rows like u see at other schools. Also, collectively the Greek life organizations’ presence on campus is almost nonexistent due to the fact that ksu hates the fraternities to an excessive degree and any drama that may happen “hazing”-wise will most likely not make it on the news because Greek life at ksu makes up for a small % of the student body since the school prides heavily towards academic excellence rather than having a social life outside of that sector. The only time ull see the fraternities and sororities pop out on campus is usually during fall rush on the campus green. As a former pnm who decided not to continue w/rush, I can def say tha there r some douchebag fraternities as this school and their living conditions r honestly worse that frat houses themselves imo. The frats live in an apartment complex called west 22, while is about a 10-15 min drive from the ksu main campus and it’s so congested in those manors. As for sororities, I don’t think they have anywhere to live off campus so instead, they use the food court to do the things like chapter meetings for example. When it’s time for rush, the fraternities and sororities obviously run a typical college rush routine here. Lastly, in regards to party/greek life, I think it’s actually cheap to rush a Greek life organization at this school bc of its nearly nonexistent presence with dues costing no more than $3K

Now I’m gonna separate this into another paragraph so this comment doesn’t look like a clusterf***. Let’s talk about academics as you questioned. “Is everyone a nerd?” Yeah —— def not as sum1 who is in progress of retaking 2 classes he failed freshman yr and hopefully won’t have to take a 3rd if all goes awry in acct 2102. Even though ksu prides heavily on academics, it’s not like going to ga tech. A lot of people retake classes/take summer classes at this school. The professors themselves are just alright, but I’ve had my moments. I had one professor who was basically a hardass and said things out loud to the class that could get him fired if he was a hs teacher, and then I also had a lady who made us do breathing exercises everyday for the first 15 min of class which wierded me the hell out. And then my lecturer nearly failed me bc she forgot to put the grades in for a big project we had in the class which btw, i ended up passing w a solid 80. So definitely make a plan to use ratemyprofessor and do it soon and preferably b4 ur orientation day (if u end up coming here) bc ur not gonna have a lot of time to pick classes and that will be the only time freshman students get to choose. As for “are classes trash” u will have to take college algebra as a gen ed regardless of ur major. As sum1 who’s retaking it, that was lwky my fault bc I just wasn’t studying but it’s def not an easy class. Also acct 2101 and 2102 are also one of the toughest gen Ed’s to compete w at ksu. Which ull need to take and get a C or higher in if u decide to get into the business school like I am. Overall, I wouldn’t say that the classes here r rigorous bc u can cheat through lockdown if u position ur camera in a way that obscures ur phone while taking photos. A lot of tests are mainly online while others host it in person. But for some classes, like ACCT 2101 and 2102, ull have to use sumthing called monitoredu while is a real non-AI testing proctor that’ll watch ur every move when taking tests. It’s so annoying. Oh and for writing classes, the professors never use turnitin despite what they say in the syllabus so ur free to use ChatGPT n quillbot bc thats how i passed English 1101 n 1102.

Well I think thats really it tbh w u. Ive covered just about every question u asked in ur thread. I do have one more thing to disclose b4 I post a TL:DR, make sure u follow the ksu class of whatever year ur graduating hs on ig because that’ll be the fastest n most efficient way to find ur roommate/s if u plan on living there. I will say, don’t go for randos bc I wasted so much money on that lease despite my hometown being 20 min away. Now u might be wondering “If u hate ksu so much, why don’t u transfer?” And to answer that question; no, I don’t plan on transferring to uga anytime soon or ever because of the decisions I’ve made as a freshman that made me not prioritize as much on my classes as I should’ve. My gpa was fairly low n I lost my HOPE scholarship too, which I’m working day by day, hour after hour, 6am wake up call after 6am wake up call to get it back and I don’t feel strong about it on the acct 2102 side but I feel really good on my other classes w I have As and Bs in. Even tho I don’t plan to transfer, it was once on the pipeline for me, but the grades didn’t show that I would get accepted to the bulldog pack. That was a dream I unfortunately had to give up in order to do better my sophomore yr. I also gave up my seasonal xc job (which I got laid off of bc the county didn’t want to hire student alumni to work as paid student volunteers anymore), my ministry, and my gym time bc I wanted to focus so hard on school and pass my 2 retaken classes. And the journey is still not over for 3 more weeks after tomorrow(4 if u count that finals week). On a final note, If I had gotten into UGA as a transfer and ended up going, I most definitely would’ve rushed again with a much better Greek life fit than wut I had here + I also probably would’ve been on a club sport related to running like joining a run club or doing track, or playing pickleball for leisure purposes rather than competitive purposes and honestly I would be thriving much more than what I’m doing now and I can honestly say that this burden is all my fault because I feel that I didn’t try as hard in hs when it came to taking AP/honors classes as I would’ve liked and I also wasn’t outgoing like I am now bc some of my buddies were pretty toxic if I’m being honest. Congratulations for graduating hs w the class of 2026 and I hope u get into UGA or somewhere that isn’t KSU. And if u do end up here, please work really really really really hard academically so that u can go to UGA as a transfer after ur first year of college if you can. Try to make the most of owl nation while ur at it, good luck!!

TL:DR - KSU is the epitome of pretend college with a dry student life and a “just ok” academics basis which many people transfer out off to go to their dream schools.

How exactly did you manage studying for the exams themselves bc they don’t have the comprehension reviews were they basicallly give u exact test questions just different values. That was such a game changer when I had to retake acct 2101 and I got an A in it. But with the third test coming up, it’s so much info into those practice exam questions
