I chose Dakota State for the quality of the education and the expertise of the professors. The tuition was also very reasonable.

I pursued my degree online and I thought I’d be in a separate virtual world, but professors involved us in some of the events that they organized with students taking the class in-person. The coursework and personal approach from my professors was a good experience.
