Review of Georgia Southern University-Armstrong Campus
from Pooler, GA
Describe your college in three sentences.
small campus that allows freshmen to bring their cars on campus. professors are very friendly and openly encourage for students to come to them for one-on-one time if needed.
a wide variety of degrees are available along with new ones being added often for minors as well as majors.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
it's right on the city bus line. across the street from many shopping opportunities as well as various dinning options. movie theaters virtual across the street, one caters the college crowd. it is a dry campus but many bars, pubs, and dinning options that it isn't a major issue. a large local population also goes to the school, much higher student attendance that lives on campus.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
depending on the program desired, i do not feel that the classes are overly hard for coming in freshman and undeclared student. i am aware that the higher you proceed in your education the more demanding and rigorous the work becomes, which is expected for an higher education.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
i am not very familiar with the day-to-day dorm life as i live off campus and always have. i do know that there on-campus washer/driers, a fairly large parking lot reserved just for on-campus students. many activities are always going on from comedians, open mic-night, bands, along with organizational sponsored activities. even being an off-campus student, it's hard to be bored.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
there are numerous options for dinning available. there is a buffet style cafeteria that is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. a convenience store called 'the pirate pantry' which sales everything from milk, eggs, and cheese, to candy bars, soda, and over the counter medicine. the perk, a starbucks affiliated coffee store. quizno's, one of the only remaining quizno's still in savannah. world of wings, a new food option which sales what else -- chicken wings!
of course there are other options within walking distance, mcdonald's, taco bell, kroger grocery store, mexican restaurant, subway, mall food court.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
many student activities offered every semester and they vary every time so no repeats. a short ride away from downtown where there are numerous clubs, pubs, bars, along with a lot shopping available. not to mention, you'll be living in literally one of the oldest cities in the united states that is still standing how it was originally designed! many touristy things to do.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
unsure of what they want to do with their lives.
have a strong desire for the medical field.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
i am aware of numerous fraternity and sorities on campus, so you'll have your pick.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
we have a 24/7 campus police, all of which are trained police officers. we do not have any rent-a-cops!
