Review of Northwestern State University of Louisiana

from Shreveport, LA

Describe your college in three sentences.

I love my first year at Northwestern State University ! The classes are close, there are plenty opportunities to get involved on campus, and there are great dorms to stay in. I could not have chosen a better choice than this one.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Northwestern State is a place where students can study, get involved, and receive an education well spent. My first tip for future students would be to have a plan to come to college and be someone. Secondly, use all resources that are offered to you. Lastly, always study and do homework first before deciding to hang with friends or attend a social event.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

Academics on campus is taken very seriously. In my opinion, most students focus on studying, attending class, and doing homework on a daily basis. There is also plenty of opportunities for students to get help if they lack in some subjects. Lastly if students need advising on classes Academic Advisers are available during the week.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Although I stay in University Columns, I think the dorms around campus are very nice and clean. Residence advisers are very informative and are not afraid to meet with us for issues at hand. All dormitories are secure and safe for the residents who reside in them.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Campus food is awesome if you love to eat burgers, french fires and pizza everyday. Occasionally, the cafe will serve a special dish but if your looking for variety you might need to visit the other campus dining services such as the Grill.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

If you would like to get involved on campus there are plenty of organizations to join or events to go to. Many students attend basketball games for the games and for the free raising canes ! Organizations on campus always have events around campus so there is never a dull moment for students.

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

What made me really want to come to Northwestern is the small but big community and my education of course. The many good things I heard about Northwestern pulled me in even more, and when I attended a Freshman Connection session during the summer I was all in.
