Along with the education I am receiving in the classroom, being so far away from home gives me the opportunity to really grow up. I have learned so much about myself in the year and a half that I have been here. I value the lessons I am learning while on this campus.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I am a member of various student organizations, and each one gives me something to do with my free time. I do not go to parties at all, and these organizations allow me to use my time wisely.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Out of state tuition can definitely be a pain, but with scholarships I am able to go to school here for next to nothing. The Honors Department is willing to work with you to ensure that your college experience is not filled with financial worries.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Get everything (housing, financial aid, etc) taken care of as soon as possible. You don't want to find yourself scrambling at the last minute; it creates too much of a headache.
ASK QUESTIONS. You will never know unless you do.
Make the effort to get to know your professors. Contrary to popular belief, they are not as hard-nosed as they appear to be.
Schedule your classes wisely. If you are not a morning person, don't schedule an 8 AM class.
You're college experience is what you make it. Get to know people, but at the same time know whether or not the people you meet will help or hinder your progress.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Morgan is great for those wanting to attend an HBCU and for those looking to attend a school where the teachers all want to see you succeed and are willing to help you in any way that they can.
