"I knew this was the school for me when I went to check out the college and met Jeff Nelson, the Criminal Justice Coordinator. He is very knowledgeable about law enforcement topics, and he works with you if you don’t understand something. He wants all his students to succeed.

"I chose to attend M State because I had heard such great things about the instructors, and specifically the Fine Arts department. The Fergus Falls campus offered smaller class sizes, which I really appreciated. 

"M State really helped prepare me for a career by being very hands-on. Our projects were based on real scenarios and involved teaching students how to use critical thinking, ethics and educated research to solve problems."

"I really enjoyed the small class sizes. It was nice having so much hands-on time and getting to move at our own pace. It was an amazing learning opportunity."

"M State allowed me to achieve a goal that did not seem possible for a large portion of my life. I was a single mom, working full-time, trying to make ends meet. The ability to earn my degree online on my own schedule made this all possible for me.

"Everyone is so inviting and helpful at M State, and that’s what I love the most about going here. I really thought I’d be an outcast considering I am a mom, but I made many friends from all walks of life within my program, and we all are still cheering each other on.
