Sonoma State University

Staff don't care about you in the slightest, class selection is a joke, and most of the people you encounter are complete burnouts with room temperature IQs. There is nothing to do in the area other than drink or do drugs. This school will hire just about anybody, and administration is essentially just a racket to drain every single dime you have.

This school has an extremely high percentage of students not graduating on time for a good reason. It legitimately feels like this school is actively trying to prevent people from graduating on time. Administration is worse than the DMV, and makes little to no effort to hide the fact that they seek to take every last dime they can get from you.

Sonoma State is no better than an average high school. Come here only if you intend to spend the rest of your life being a grape picker in Sonoma or Napa county winery. Go anywhere else, nobody is going to take you seriously because nobody knows where or what Sonoma State University is. I am not kidding!!

This school needs better professors and a more unified course system. Seems like the Wild West when it comes to professors and how they grade and perform. I wish I went to a different uni. Also, people are just generally rude and everyone complains they can't make friends.

If you have a choice to go to just about any other CSU, I would do it. Decent music department if you are solely looking to teach and not for a competitive environment. Every other department is infested with professors who have lost all motivation and push their political opinions on you. Most aren't qualified to teach 101 level courses.

Disenchanting. So much time pulling teeth with classmates to participate & do assignments than I did learning- felt like a parent to my classmates. Some condescending professors, burnt out like they couldn't be bothered, entitled. More concessions given to disruptive students than hard workers. Great for "green" students, not high achievers.

If I could give this school a zero-star rating I would. I absolutely hated attending here,the professors are not helpful and are actually very rude when you ask them questions. The classes and course descriptions are not accurate to what the school is truly about. Clubs even after I gave them my phone number etc don't contact me. Do not go here.

Basically, a commuting college and it is very hard to make friends unless you are constantly putting yourself out there and living in the dorms. Many people don't talk after class or make much effort to know people outside their existing social circle already. They are currently rebuilding Stevenson hall but I will be graduating before it opens.

Do not come here if you want the college experience. People are very judgemental and cliquey. Even if you participate in Greek life, you will still feel antisocial because of the location of campus. Academics are unoriginal and not innovative or eye opening like college is supposed to be.

Transferred after my freshman year.This school was so hard to fit in if you don't meet friends after the first month. Nobody is welcoming and were rude.Unless u r playing a sport, that is where you will make friends and go to parties.greek life was odd, i got into a top sorority house at another uni bc i got dropped here. overall depressing school
