What Students Are Saying

the classes i have taken so far have been informative and interesting. not too easy but not so challenging that i have lost interest in them.
The difficulty of Idaho State University is exactly what is expected. It is all dependent on the student and their match with a course and their motivation. There are obviously some classes that are not simple but if the student puts the time and effort in, they should pass with minimal stress.
McKenzie from Pocatello, ID
Depending on the major, there is a lot of discrepancy in this area. Non-science related majors tend to have it pretty easy. Their course load is relatively light. On the other hand, science-majors can get really busy during the school year. They actually need to study and do all the assignments to get a good grade.

i think the academic rigor definitely depends on what program you are in here at idaho state university but the accounting program is difficult, but rewarding.
