Review of Southern Union State Community College

from Opelika, AL

Describe your college in three sentences.

Southern Union State Community College is terrific for any Freshman, due to a great education for lower costs all-around, convenience, and smaller classes with great teachers. You get more value for your money and time invested.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Whether completing basic courses or obtaining one of the many degrees offered, I would highly recommend Southern Union!

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

The academics are intense enough for a great education and can still understand your teacher and ask for assistance, with smaller classes than larger colleges.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Great for those on the Wadley campus. No dorm on Opelika campus but many local apartments or close enough to commute from many towns.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Many nearby local places to eat, even on campus or bring your own and eat in the Student Union or enjoy the outdoors.

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

A local nearby park and eateries in Opelika, churches to visit, and various nightlife in Auburn, whichever is your style.

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

I can afford to attend Southern Union in all the ways that count: tuition, food/dining, transportation costs, without the extra fees associated with larger schools. I can live and eat at home, or if at Wadley campus enjoy amenities of dorm life.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

None known yet.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Great for ANY type of student, freshman teenager or mature back-to-school worker or for vocational training.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Unknown.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Small campus with on-site security, many local law enforcement officers nearby, and employees that are trained in various safety situations.
