I'm looking into South Dakota State University and I'm curious about the size of the student body. Could anyone tell me the approximate number of students enrolled there and how big the campus feels? Thanks!
South Dakota State University has an approximate student population of around 12,000 students, with the majority being undergraduates. Although the campus is not extremely large, the sense of community and involvement can make it feel like a good-sized college experience rather than an overwhelmingly large university. Despite its size, SDSU offers a wide range of academic programs, extracurricular activities, and resources normally found at bigger universities.
The campus spans over 260 acres, and the layout fosters interactions between students while still maintaining a comfortable and easily-navigable layout. Many students appreciate the balance between the available opportunities and the close-knit, friendly atmosphere on campus. If you have the chance to visit, it's a great way to understand the campus vibe and see if it's the right fit for you.
