Frostburg State University — Local services in Frostburg

In regards to the this not being the place for anyone of color or even from another country! That is Completely an untrue statement! All though I am so sorry if that person was treated so badly that why wasn't a report made on racial harassment? There are many on campus police and regular street police .plus security cameras are all over! Ihave found it,to be a lovely accepting place to live for a year. The community makes income from students so why would they antagonize them?all though beware of the rental dumps!(at top dollar price's! And anyone can be.made a house sharer,😳so n careful . I suggest the bobcat apts buildings by the park and pool. The student housing dorms on bobcat ct are diverse with a central building being a family long-term resident unit also diversified During the CV when buses where shut down and snowplows we're nowhere ! All came out to help each other. Elderly were helped with rides by the students.(ty sir for that btw) in the evenings kids played out front and students played with them gently throwing balls back. And all kept it cleanand respectfull the area and words. Of course Friday night until Sunday afternoon there were parties in the Street,at the huge park with a stream ,covered eating places with fireplaces inside and pits outside also,ballpark, soccer field basketball courts and Olympic so it seemed size pool with even kids playground area and even they were respectful so, as for not to be a place for black skinned people untrue! Completely untrue as the dorms were almost all African Americans,some Caucasian ericans and Native ericans ,Indonesian,Kenyans Nigerians and from my point ya can't get.more.diverse than that! And the school has the biggest sport facilities up-to-date you can want. And as for teachers be determined to get what you want ,not what they want for you. Go for ya dreams keep God first love accept Jesus ya can't go wrong .. ohhhh just say no to things that could lead ya down a bad.path drinking alcohol is a big thing there be wise use responsibility...

Frostburg is a pretty decent school. It has a lower reputation that it does not deserve, as there are endless success stories about Frostburg graduates. That being said, this school is NOT for everyone. If you are a freshman or transfer student considering attending FSU, I highly recommend visiting the campus and getting acquainted with the students before you decide. If you aren't someone who is into Greek Life/Partying, super cold weather, or you aren't a complete weirdo, the social environment there will kill you. You may be naive to it at first, but it will creep on you eventually. That being said, FSU has some of the most unique students you will ever meet, but also some of the most immature ones that never mentally finished HS. Most of the professors are pretty down to earth and care about students, but some are god awful. If you want to be a teacher, musician, ethnobotanist, geographer, or computer scientist, this is one of the best universities for you in the state of Maryland. Some facilties need major renovations, having not been renovated since the 60s and 70s. However, the largest and newest buidling on campus (CCIT) is beautiful, equipped with open computer labs, including an apple mac lab, a 24/7 lab, and has nice breakoutrooms with TVs. It's certainly one of the best University facilities in Maryland. The dining hall food stinks, and you should take advantage of using meal swipes at Lane Center options like Chik Fil A, Moes, Grill Nation, and at Subway. The freshman dorms suck, but the upper classmen dorms are like your average American college dorms. Edgewood Apartments are nice, but a bit more expensive. Lots of nature trails, lakes, mountains, and scenery you dont find at other MD schools are a few miles from FSU. If you go here, study hard, have fun, and good luck...

I attended Frostburg state university and graduated with my BFA and a minor in art history. Frostburg State University has definitely grown away from being the "party school" and is defined more on its overall care for its staff and students. FSU has given me experiences such as being an RA (resident assistant) and has given me plenty of memories. There is an array of sports, clubs and student organizations that allows its community to even be apart of and I value that in this small town university. However, going back to do studies in Psychology and trying to peruse my Masters in their masters in counseling psychology program is Nil. Working WITH the staff in that department to get to where you want to be and getting denied from the program twice was heartbreaking. Staff will direct and guide you, only to DENY you. So warning to those interested in pursuing their career in anything BUT education, be weary. Otherwise, an amazing school with limitless...
