Review of Austin Peay State University

from Clarksville, TN

Describe your college in three sentences.

I love APSU. It may be my hometown college but it keeps me focused. I'm not trying to explore a new city or find out where the night-life is.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

AS a prospective student, APSU is a simple place to focus on your studies but still have fun and enjoy the town.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

I would give APSU 4 stars just because they do not have any and all majors a person could want. Although, they provide a way to create you own degree by double majoring or double minoring.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Dorm life is the best part of APSU. It gives the student the freedom from home, yet there are still rules and consequences to abide by.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

I give Food and Dining 3 stars not becuase the food isn't great (because it is), but because their avaiability is not ideal for students.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

For fun, there is plenty to do. The recreation center is a great place to just hang out with friends or workout with a game of basketball or even take an aerobic dance class.

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

For in-state students, it's the cheapest place in Tennessee to attend. I believe it has the most open and accepting faculty and staff.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

For the smokers out there,there used to be several smoking huts around campus before the SGA passed the Smoke-free campus rule. Now there is only one and it is a place of acceptance and relaxation in between classes and before or after classes. We call it Byzantium.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There are a variety of clubs and activities for everyone on campus. If there is an activity that does not have a club, any student can create one through a rather simple process.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Greek Life is always active around campus. Through charities and helping to improve campus gives APSU a good name for Greek life.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

APSU has one of the safest campuses in Tennessee. With its own police force, APSU keeps it's students safe and takes care of them.
