Read What Students Are SayingThere is a whole lot of nothing to do around Buies Creek, so learning is the next best thing... :)
Josh from Eastover, NC
The classes here are very challenging. I transferred here from another school and I finally know I am getting my money's worth. Professors are very nice and assessable with small classroom sizes. Graduating from Campbell University I will know and feel that I worked hard for my degree and will be able to excel in graduate studies. If you are looking into Campbell and looking for a school just to get by in I wouldn't suggest you coming here.
Marisa from Middlebury, CT
I've learned a lot from my professors here at Campbell. Depending on your major you'll be very close with your professor or just casual friends, either way you won 't be a number here.
Chris from NC
I love the campus, its like a small town. It's very secure you can call the campus police in one small call. Everybody their treats you with respect.
Caleb from Hickory, NC
Wow. Such an incredible place to learn, make friends, and begin a new journey in life. Even as a commuting student, the employees really help you transition into the colege life and atmosphere.
Alex from Benson, NC
I am a student here.
The heart and soul of Harnett County, Campbell University is home to a small beautiful campus and excellent academics. There doesn't seem a lot to do in the Creek if you don't search and look for events. Most students love it here but they complain about general education courses and weekend deadness.

Campbell University is a great college for students trying to find a close knit community with small class sizes. The teachers are very in tune with their students and get information across quickly and accurately. Overall, this school is fantastic.
Troy from Fayetteville, NC
I am learning more at Campbell University than I have throughout my entire education. The professors are very resourceful, and they know how to make the students understand the material.
Christian from Lincolnton, NC
Campbell University is a beautiful and peaceful college. There are various activities to keep you involved and everyone is courteous. For the majority, class sizes are small and professors actually learn your name.
Layne from Bear Creek, NC
Campbell is a wonderful school, full of wonderful individuals. It is sometimes too expensive for the quality of the things you're receiving. I cannot, however, see myself anywhere else for my undergraduate studies.
