Shelton State provides a fun and friendly atmosphere while offering a wide array of courses. They remain affordable, even for those of low income, while still nourishing a diversified student body with various clubs and activities. The teachers are passionate about their subject and involve the students so that each day is always exciting.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
The only tip I can give you is to come to class. Far too often students feel as if they can skip class and still receive credit. This is not true. If you do not attend class and, furthermore, pay attention, then you will have no chance of passing.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The courses are varied and interesting.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
They do not have dorms but there is an apartment complex immediately outside one of the campuses.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Poppy's Grill provides good food at an affordable price and if you decide you are not up for Southern American cooking then there are lovely Chinese and Mexican restaurants right outside the door.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Anything and everything. You have a choice of both a theater and an art studio on campus and off campus you have bowling and movies. I personally recommend hanging out with friends.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
I received my AAS within two years and am utterly thrilled with the entire experience. There was not one semester in which I did not enjoy myself, both academically and socially.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
If you are looking for a place to start out academically while maintaining a frugal budget then SSCC is the place for you.
