Review of Albany State University

from Columbus, GA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

ASU is a great place for learning. The teachers are very nice. Therefore they help you with your classes. If you are failing and do not understand. They will help you or even waver your grades to help you out. They have a lot of people to help you if you need tutoring. I am learning a lot at this school. I am happy that I choose it because I hear from other friends how at their schools, their professors don't help them. I just say sorry, my teachers help a lot.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

When friends and people from church ask me how I like Albany. I say I really enjoy this school. The school is not too big or too small. The campus is very pretty and there is something always going on. Whether its a party or forums and events. The football games and band are awesome. The basketball games are fun too. The dorms are nice and they are always having something with battle of the halls. I just love my ASU.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

If your looking for a school that has nice teachers, students, nice looking, fun, then ASU is for you. Its not very expensive. Each semester rounds off to paying about $ 5,000 dollars. Which is cheap compared to other HBCU's. The financial aid is a bit slow, but they work with everyone to make sure you get what is needed.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

If you don't want to go to a school in a small city then this is not the school for you. Also if your from a big city and you attend Albany, just try to enjoy it. Don't judge the school because Albany (the city) is small. Its not going to be like if you went to a big city school. But Albany is fun and you will enjoy it even if its in a small city. Also if your planning on attending ASU and you got your packet. Make sure you turn your stuff in on time. Including dorms. Because the dorms are first come first serve. So if you turn them in late your not going to get one of the nicer dorms. Also you need to study and go to class. Its fun to party but too much parting can cause you to lose focus and then you will end up failing. So i advise you to study before partying.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

ASU is great for students who want to go to an HBCU and not pay expensively for it. Albany state may be cheap but they still look at grades and expect you to do well. Its also great for students, who like to have fun, party, attend games. This school has a lot of pride. So you will enjoy it. You will especially see it at Homecoming or the Classics.
