 " I think this is an okay institution. So far, all of my professors are quite enjoyable and it is easy to tell they do genuinely like what they teach, which is important. I can't say much about the overall experience since I've only spent a semester and a half there, but the library is a nice place, and the food options can be better in the dining hall. "

 " I love San Jose State and everything about it! My experience has been nothing short of amazing! Aside from a parking shortage due to mass amounts of commuting students and some specific professors, SJSU is great! "

 " The school is in downtown sf area so there are some sketchy people sometimes but there is also plenty of interesting places to eat and shop nearby. Great school to attend there is usually parking in at least one of the many  parking structures that also have charter buses to get you to campus if your not nearby. "

 " I’m very happy with my experience at SJSU. Without attending this university, I do not think that I would be on the path that I am today. The advisors that I have interacted with have also been a great help. They were always open to answer any questions or provide assistance that I needed. There were times that I struggled being a university student and they helped me get through those difficulties "

 " Supportive faculty and rigorous academics. As a master's student, I mostly commuted to campus, so I don't have great sense of the social component of the school. But the new facilities are beautiful (the library) but did not get to experience the gym or other student resources. "
