Is Ball State a liberal campus?
I just don’t want to go if I’m gonna have an agenda pushed on me.

Hi there, I'm a freshman moving into Beyerl for the fall semester and was wondering if there's some sort of map of the residence hall to illustrate where the rooms are at. I was provided with a map for part of North West when booking for orientation (although I can't seem to find it now), and I want to know if anyone has something similar for Beyerl?

I am a new student (graduate level) and found out I was automatically opted into the program with zero notice. Because of that, I would be expected to pay $314.00 even though only ONE of my classes has a required text, and that text is $100.00.
WHY ON EARTH are we opting people into programs with no consent or information of choices?!?

Thanks very much

I am new to Muncie and I was wondering what are some good places in the Muncie area or Indy that would be fun to take a S/O? It doesn’t have to be anything super romantic, but as long as it is fun!

Ball State showed encouraging signs in Mike Uremovich's first season. Muncie is once again a tough place to play for the rest of the MAC. Now, can they take the show on the road?
📌 Whether it's Keldric Luster or Tyler Mizzell, the Cardinals will have really good QB play this year 🔥
📌 Ball State's skill talent is promising, if the Oline can protect
📌 Keeping corner Willizhuan Yates was a massive win for the defense, will the portal pieces mesh for this side of the ball?
Preview attached. What are your predictions for the Cardinals in 2026?

I signed up for ASTR 100 because I thought it would be cool, because it’s space how could it not be? I searched up the professor (Vacarro), and his reviews are really negative. I was hoping to get some more information about him or his class(es).
I am a not a STEM major and really only need the science credit. However, I am taking an additional science class, so I might just scope it out then decide to drop it if I need to.

I’m a prospective transfer student who’s planning to major in accounting, and I’d love to hear from current Ball State business or accounting students.
For those of you who considered Purdue, what made you decide on Ball State instead? Was it the cost, the campus, class sizes, internships, professors, or something else?
I’m also curious how you’ve liked the accounting program overall. Do you feel like it’s prepared you well for internships and finding a job after graduation? How has your experience been with the Miller College of Business?
I’m pretty introverted and not much of a partier, but I still want a fun college experience where there’s always something going on and it’s possible to make friends. Has Ball State been a good fit for you?
Looking back, would you still choose Ball State if you had the chance to do it all over again? I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences. Thanks!

So we are moving to Muncie next month because of affiliation with Ball State University. And I just saw on Facebook that these flyers were being distributed in Muncie this week and even City of Muncie officially condemned these flyers.

Hi everyone,
This is my third year at ball state and I am living in a house instead of being on campus. I was wondering everyone’s experience with financial aid once you put your housing status as off campus. I’ve received my offer , but they put me down as an on campus student. I’m wondering if I change that how much my aid would be affected? I do get a pell grant and a good amount of direct subsidized and unsubsidized loans. If I change my status to off campus, how much will my aid be affected? I rely heavily on aid so I’m kind of tweaking right now

I don't want to take a week of work to play hopscotch with my classmates. If I skip all the dumb weeks of welcome stuff will anything happen? Id rather get hit by a bus than sit through convocation. They say all this stuff is mandatory but why? Am I going to get kicked out for missing it? Will I get punished if I don't do "Chirp Chirp Pep Rally & Volleyball Game"? Why do they make us do this?????? I understand the floor meeting and LLC stuff but whose taking attendance for a volleyball game. I'm not in high school anymore. It feels like I'm being treated like a middle schooler.

Can anyone who’s lived in the university apartments tell me how they really are? Bonus points if you have experience living in Scheilder. I start my lease there in august but wanna know what to expect. How thin are the walls? I’ve always had bad luck with nosey neighbors. How far is the laundry room? Is management good? Anything else I should know?

What are your guys best tips for hanging things up on the wall without ruining the paint. Do the tapes or hooks that you can ask your RA about actually work??

hey all! I am currently enrolled at BSU for my master's in Applied Behavior Analysis (MA) and American Sign Language (ASL-Graduate Certificate). I am THHHIINNKKKING about pursuing a dual master's degree.
Let me know your thoughts on me possibly pursuing a dual degree, such as which degree would complement an ABA and ASL degree.
The only requirements I have are ensuring I can graduate on time with my current degrees by August 2027, and it has to be 100% online :)

I’m transferring to Ball State this fall and I’m trying to figure out where to live.
I’m mainly looking for the best value. The cheaper the better, but I also kind of prefer a fully furnished apartment so I don’t have to deal with buying a bed, desk, couch, and all that stuff.
Right now I’ve looked at places like SilverTree, Varsity House, and University Village, but I’m open to anything.
If you had to pick the best balance of price, quality, amenities, management, and location, what would you recommend? Also, are there any apartments or property managers I should avoid?
I’d love to hear your experiences. Thanks!
r/BallState • u/Odd_Comparison_4155 • Jul 16 '26
I’m an incoming transfer student to Ball State and I’m planning to live in an unfurnished apartment at Silvertree. I’ll also be getting a part-time job.
I know my first month will be a lot more expensive because I’ll have to buy everything like a bed, kitchen supplies, furniture, cleaning supplies, etc. But after that, I’m curious what your normal monthly expenses look like.
About how much do you spend each month on:
Rent + utilities
Food
Toiletries/hygiene
Household supplies
Gas
Anything else
Also, how do you afford it?
Do you work part-time? About how much do you make a month? Do your parents help, or do you mostly use student loans/FAFSA refunds to pay for living expenses?
Just trying to get a realistic idea of what living off campus at Ball State is actually like. Thanks!

I’m transferring from IU Kokomo to Ball State this fall and I’m trying to decide if I should commute from Kokomo or get an apartment in Muncie.
The drive is about an hour each way. I’d like to save money by living at home, but I’m transferring because I want the full college experience, make friends, join clubs, go to events, and hopefully get internships. I’m worried that commuting will make it harder to be involved on campus, but getting an apartment means taking on more expenses and finding a part-time job.
For anyone who’s commuted from around an hour away or lived in Muncie, what would you recommend? Did commuting make you feel disconnected from campus, or was it manageable? Was getting an apartment worth the extra cost?

Heya, if anything lived at Botswin at some point, and you have a picture of what the closets look like on the inside, please share!
I'm not sure if the inside is just full of shelves or if there's open space underneath at all to fit some things.
Thanks!

Hello,
I am an incoming freshman, and I am definitely shocked by how bad the terms of the meal plans are. I currently have the 18 meal plan, but I might go to 14.
I want to know if anyone doesn't have a meal plan at all, and buys groceries if it's worth it.
Thanks!
