YES I AM DEFINITELY LEARNING A LOT, AND THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS TO ME. I CAME TO SCHOOL FOR A DEGREE AND THAT IS WHAT IM GETTING. DO BE REAL, NOT EVERY PROFESSOR THAT RECEIVES A CHECK FROM ASU CARES ABOUT YOU, SADLY, BUT, THE ONES WHO DO- U WILL FEEL IT. STICK BY THEM, LEARN ALL YOU CAN, AND LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY!
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
It depends on what you are used to, and where your from. Our generation is so caught up on fashion and hoods per say, that they are loosing focus. Do not get caught up in the Greek Life or you will loose yourself. Greek is not for everyone. If you do decide to take part, don't go according to numbers and status, but pledge from your heart. Just keep to a small circle of friends. I do and I'm doing okay.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
If you are out of state, you will find yourself in a financial nightmare per say. Keep in touch with financial aide and all third party finances. If you are in state, then you are most m likely good to go with some minor tweaks.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
You are never to judge a book by its cover. ASU has its good and its bad. Albany is a small city, so if your use to big cities, make the best of it. Reminder that it is an HBCU and sometimes they move very slow(particularly financial aide). Just do your part in turning in all of your paperwork on time. However in terms of education, it is the student that makes the school, not the school that makes the student. There is no excuse to fail. They offer tutors on top of tutors. They have a program in the library(CETLA) it is the Center for Excellence in Teaching, Learning, and Advising. Just keep in mind why you came to college,and all else will follow.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Those students who like small cities, this is good for you. They do party a lot if you are on the fun side. But keep in mind that you came to school to further your education not party lifestyle. A lot of people get caught up, especially their freshman year and loose focus. But with some of the caring professors and excellent learning services you can get back on track.
