Cleveland State University (CSU)

A small and very cozy university. Good transport accessibility, since the university is located in the city center, there are a lot of places and opportunities to spend your free time. Teachers, student life and sports are at their best. I like that teachers care about students and their subject. If you have any difficulties and questions, you can always write to the teacher by email. Usually, everyone responds pretty quickly and really tries to help.

This is my second year at CSU. They acted on the recommendation of the Smaps agency, which helped with the selection of the program and enrollment in the university. Most of all in CSU, I like the number of people from different countries of the world, there is an opportunity to meet completely different people and broaden my horizons. The teachers are mostly excellent and are interested in getting students really engaged in the subject. In general, there is a feeling that you are getting a quality education at this university.

Very beautiful campus near the university. The university is located in the city center, the city itself is not very large, and it cannot be said that there is much entertainment for students. However, the university itself offers a large selection of activities and sports. Another advantage of the location of the university in the center is the opportunity to find a part-time job in the city very close to the campus or on the campus itself. I work in the student support department, and it is quite possible to earn a small amount for small expenses here.

She graduated from the Faculty of Psychology of CSU in 2018. I chose the university purely on the recommendation of acquaintances, because at the time of my admission very little was known about this university, and there were practically no sources in Russian language at all. And, as it turned out, this was a big plus, as it allowed, as they say, to completely immerse yourself in the environment. I practically did not meet Russian-speaking students on campus, at most 2.3 people for all the time. In the last year of my studies, many more international students began to appear, as the university began to actively work on student diversity and attract foreigners. But most of my classmates were local students. It was always easy to talk and interact with the teachers. The Faculty of Psychology here was really good and gave me a lot in terms of training. I hope that now everything has remained at the same level.
