Snowboarding / Skiing class

To anybody who has done the snowboarding or skiing activity class: Do they give you a pass for the mountain or do you need your own pass to be in the class? I plan on buying on either way but would be nice to know ahead of time.

Is there any way to see required readings for class before the syllabus is on Brightspace?

I've been a student for a few years and I have never figured out if there's a way to find what textbooks we need for a class before reading the syllabus a few days before classes. I have always just gotten my books the first week of class.

Is there anywhere that the required readings can be seen ahead of the start of the semester? TIA

XC skate skis for rent

Hi,

Im an incoming spring period exchange student and I’m wondering if there is a way to get some skate skis and poles for rent.

I’m bringing my boots but I would need poles and skis rated (not too picky) for around 190cm/86kg (190lbs).

Also, is there a lot of students skiing so is there car rides available?

I did check online outdoor recreation rental shop and they only had classic ski equipment.

Thank you all in advance!

I've owned half a documentary of an early 2000's MSU Football team for two-thirds of my life and thought older alumni might find it nostalgic.

Football Ticket Help

Hello,

Bit of a weird request but I am looking to verify I have authentic tickets for next weekend's Montana game at Bobcat Stadium. My girlfriend who is not into sports at all really bought them because the game is on our anniversary from a third party and we have the QR code tickets that look like they came from SeatGeek originally. Can anyone upload a picture of a past game where you may have used SeatGeek mobile tickets? This may be a much easier way to verify them just by look as opposed to having to contact SeatGeek or MSU Athletics directly. We both just want to make sure we are completely good to go to cheer on an undefeated Cats season, can't wait for my first Cats Grizz experience!

Applying for Fall 2025

I’m a high school senior applying for admission in fall of 2025, my GPA is a 2.3, so not very good but I have a 1400 SAT and was wondering if that will make up for it possibly? I had a lot of struggles with mental health early in high school and have been crawling back with my grades recently.

Nursing Program

Hey guys! I'm a hs senior who is accepted to MSU as pre-nursing, and will be applying for Fall 2025 nursing (as I have all my pre-reqs done due to Running Start). I'm lowkey stressing about getting accepted, and was wondering if anyone has any experience/insight into the difficulty of getting into the nursing program.

Also ik that there are 5 different campuses, if I don't get into the Bozeman one (or the other big two) is it still worth pursuing or should I wait for another cycle to reapply? Thanks!

MSU housing

I’m a incoming freshman (spring semester) and am wondering which dorms are best to stay in. I’m a pretty social guy, like to ski, thinking about rushing a frat too. I heard roskie is social but pretty old. Yellowstone looks the best but would like to hear from people that have actually lived in the dorms at MSU

Msu transfer

I’m from New Hampshire and currently go to unh. Not really a big fan of the school and applied to msu bc I love to ski and just need a change of environment. My parents really want me to stay another semester but I feel like it would just be a waste of time here. I just accepted to msu and am wondering if it’s worth transferring. Thanks

Studying Abroad from England

Hi! I’m (F20) Considering studying abroad at MSU for one year. I’m looking for a place that’s gonna be a culture shock to England haha! I’ve also always wanted to travel to Montana. I have a few questions that id really appreciate being answered :-)

  1. what’s the nightlife like? Does it revolve around Greeklife? There’s a lottttt of drinking multiple days a week at uni in the UK and i’ve heard Montana is good at getting hammered haha.
  2. I can’t buy a car out there, will I struggle to get around? I get public transport in UK so wondering how it is at the uni/ in Bozeman.
  3. I’ve never skied! Would this actually be a problem lol? Lots of people talking about skiing here.
  4. Is there much to do in Bozeman?
  5. Is it a “stereotypical college experience”?
  6. For travelling around other states, is there coaches/ nearby airport?
  7. Any other pieces of advice/ info i should know?

Thank you!!!

Marketing at MSU?

I'm thinking of doing business - marketing at msu I'm just not very sure if it's exactly the right fit for me however, out of all the schools I researched this one seems the most fitting I like the laid back vibe and the cold weather but I still have my doubts..

How is MSU for premed?

I’m looking into schools out West in the mountains and came across Montana State. The area looks beautiful, but I’ve seen some conflicting ratings for the school. How is its premed program? Does it offer good research opportunities?
