Bemidji State University

Bemidji State University is located right near Lake Bemidji, offering wonderful lake views throughout campus. BSU gives off a 'northwoods' feel and gives many outdoorsy opportunities to students which draws a ton of students who like the outdoors. Also, once the lake freezes over in the winter time, students and faculty/staff can park on the ice for free! There is just a few things that make Bemidji State University stand out.

Yes, students are allowed to live on campus without a roommate but it does have a cost increase. It also depends on the availability of rooms.

At Bemidji State University, we have our Outdoor Program Center which houses bikes, canoes, kayaks, fishing gear and other outdoor items which students and community members can rent out. Students really enjoy the campus' offering of entertainment ranging from comedians to motivational speakers to hypnotists that are free to students. All of our clubs and organizations can host events specific to that group/club/org as well. There are a ton of things to do in the Bemidji area- like visiting downtown Bemidji and skiing at Buena Vista.
