Serving around 6,000 students from its campus in the southwest corner of the state, Missouri Southern State University has built a reputation as one of the region’s finest institutions of choice. Campus facilities like the Thomas E. Taylor Performing Arts Center and Fred G. Hughes Stadium serve as popular venues for both the university community and the Joplin community at large.
Just off the southwest corner of campus, Northpark Mall anchors a cluster of shopping centers with the local multiplex movie theater nearby as well. Downtown Joplin sits three miles to the west, making it easy to hop over to Main Street to check out the city’s vibrant dining and nightlife scene. Several residential neighborhoods can be found within a short walk of the MSSU campus, with local rental rates for apartments, condos, and houses tending to be quite affordable in the area.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
