i am currently an art major at georgia southwestern state university and not only do i love the program but i also feel like i am learning a lot. i would compare our art program to one as good as uga. the one on one time that i get with my art teachers is priceless and they are always there to support and help me out. outside of the art deparment i have taken six other classes and have had only one mediocre experience and that was just because i didnt not enjoy the subject. the teachers are extremely knowedgeable and have helped me to truly enjoy learning.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
the people here are incredible. there is quite an eclectic group of students here and everyone gets along. i went to a huge high school in atlanta and had always experienced cliques and secular grouping but at gsw everyone is friends. i love walking around campus and having everyone i pass by say hello to me. ive never met a stranger here!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
living on campus is okay. i now have moved off campus and although i am saving money i do miss being involved and always around people. the food is okay but the cafeteria setting is great! not to mention i feel as though i am getting the best art education possible in georrgia and for this price?! i wont be in student loan dept forever and that is fantastic!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
get involved. because this is a small town some people complain that there is not uch to do but once you get comfortible and get out and find stuff there is SO much to do and you can get so much out of the community. for most majors there are internships right here in americus. the community is also extremely supportive.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
social, serious about school, need one on one teacher time, involved
