I wanted to study textiles and interior design. WSU didn't offer anything remotely close, so my advisor suggested I choose Fine Arts, the program was decent. Although I dropped my courses because I knew I didn't want to go into anything realated to Fine Art. For me it was a bit of a waste. If your passion is in Interior Design, you would be better off attending a technical school.
I went to WSU because it was in-state and in the town I grew up in. I also had multiple scholarships. Because I didn't know exactly what I wanted to major in, it was a good choice. It is a fantastic Engineering school in many disciplines. It is also a very multi-cultural school with a wide range of attendees. Some programs stop at the undergraduate level requiring a change to a different school if you want to get your masters or above.
While scores on the Math portion of the SAT have remained fairly consistent over the past 40 years for men, their average Verbal scores have dropped about 30 points.
