Review of Louisiana Tech University

from Shreveport, LA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

I'm a sophomore majoring in Biology at Louisiana Tech. Tech has one of the best biology programs in the state and most people who graduate from Tech go on to excel in medical school and other areas that involve science. Some of the best doctors in the state graduated from Louisiana Tech.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

Tech is located in a fairly small town called Ruston. However, Ruston has festivals and neat little shopping places. Ruston is also 30 minutes away from Monroe and 2 minutes away from Grambling. There are always things to do in Ruston and the people are nice and friendly.

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

Louisiana Tech is the only university in Louisiana that has the quarter system. The quarter system allows you to earn more credits in the school year as opposed to going to a semester system school. This means that you can graduate from Tech in just three years if you stay on track.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

I would advise any one who goes to Tech to join at least one organization to have a better college experience and social life. Students should also have a happy medium between studying and play time.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Tech is wonderful for engineering, biology,education,kinesiology, and students interested in any area of math. Tech also has a great Fashion and Consumer Science program.
