When I first applied to college after high school, I refused to go to The College of Staten Island (CSI). I ended up dorming at a SUNY and wasted a year of my life. I transferred into CSI and most of my credits rolled over and could use most for my CSI degree. My major was competitive since most of my classes consisted of middle-aged mothers who would stop at nothing to get their A. I am a great student but I have never been a straight A student. I eventually changed my major to English, with a concentration in Linguistics. Although there are a number of English professors, there was only 3 Linguistic professors. Granted, the major is small but I had one professor three times (in a row). It truly isn't a bad university. My problem is, like many, is the advisers and administrators. You will LITERALLY be driven in circles. No ones gives you a straight answer. You will never know what you need to graduate, when you will graduate and it seems no one follows the same rules. I would recommend this school solely for the price and degrees but be warned of what you are getting yourself into. | Campus Aesthetics: A+, Individual Value: D- |  | | |

| Quite Bright | Its a nice college, almost all the faculty are helpful, there are some bad teachers also but theres always a few in any school. There are also lots of extra circular activities, though somewhat sad most student's however dont apply to them much less know they exist and then complain that there is nothing to do on campus. Granted its not the best college, it does have faults but its pretty rated high among other CUNY schools. | Education Quality: A+, University Resource Use: B- |  | | |

| Not so bright | College is what you make it and CSI is the perfect example of this. If you choose to just go home after classes then of course you are going to hate it! There is always something going on and the Student Life Office is always happy to help you. The faculty is very friendly and they never turn away a student who needs help. CSI truly is the hidden jewel of the CUNY system. The academics are rigorous and the are oppurtunities for more academically advanced students to join various honors programs. Students who are unhappy here should consider looking closer at the campus and become more involved. | Education Quality: A+, Campus Maintenance: B+ |  | | |

| Quite Bright | They make everything too complicated. Whenever you need real help, they don't bother. All they do is transfer you here and there in person and on phone. There are faculty that are helpful, but the registrar and the school counselors (other than the specific department counselors) are arrogant and disrespectful, and not to mention had me take the wrong class, and due to it how much I suffered in order to past that class. | Campus Aesthetics: A, Education Quality: D- |  | | |
