Whether you enjoy writing and want to become part of the university media, or you wish to hone your skills on the basketball court, Missouri Southern State University has a program for you!

Academics
MSSU offers Bachelor's degrees in a range of fields. However, the university's "baby", as you could call it, is their General Education program. They offer a great bachelor's program in general education, as well as an associate's degree and recommend that every student pursue their degree in General Education. As for other degree options, the MSSU website was a bit vague as to exactly how many degree programs were available. However, you can submit a request for information and the University will send you a pamphlet or booklet with additional information.

Athletics
While Missouri Southern State University students excel highly in education and academics, they are also very highly ranked in the athletic circuit. As part of the Mid America Intercollegiate Athletics Association, this NCAA Division II school is known to bring home titles year after year. With fourteen different sports programs available for the male and female students at MSSU finding your place on the court or the field can be obtained through hard work and diligence. Student athletes often receive scholarships from the university, giving them a financial edge over non-athletes. So, if you are athletically talented in any way, why not try out and see if you'll make one of the MSSU teams. If athletics just aren't your thing, then why not go out and support the Lions by wearing green and gold at the next university sponsored athletic event!

Campus Housing
For many students, campus housing is a deciding factor as they choose which college or university they wish to attend. At Missouri Southern State University has three separate residence halls as well as campus apartment housing. Each residence hall includes cable, Internet access, and individual heating and air conditioning.
