I chose Cleveland State for its reputation and ranking, and campus located in the heart of the city.
[Applying] was kind of an overwhelming process, [but] counselors made it easy. I don’t know if I would have been able to do that alone. They were a really big help to me.
The coursework was extraordinary. I learned a lot because of the content, but also because of the way I was taught.
