 " Its a good community feeling university. I wish that it when I wanted to bring in a multicultural sorority they would've allowed it...especially since they already had white sororities on campus. The library is very nice. I love the study rooms there you can escape for a few hours if you need to by yourself or with a friend and just hang out. "

 " Salem state is a good school, sometimes parking can be frustrated as a commuter, but I've always been able to find a space, i would just have to walk more. I lived on campus for 3 years there and it was fun being able to be on my own with friends, the dorms are not bad, most of them have ac "

 " I would recommend this school and the psychology department. I have felt supported by the staff. The food is not the best especially for someone like me who is gluten free. I wish there were more options. The living facilities are nice, especially after being a freshman. Parking spots are hard to get, but if you get a pass it is a bonus. Both of my advisors are amazing and have helped me so much as far as my education goes. For the most part all of my professors have been amazing. There are helpful services such as disability services, the writing center, as well as tutors. I would recommend this university. "

 " Good state school, good location. Affordable tuition. Recommended for local students who want to remain in state and either commute or live on campus. Professors are mostly good. Location is nice, being in the Salem area, there is alot to do and easy access to public transportation. "
