Review of Southern University and A & M College

from McDonough, GA

Describe your college in three sentences.

AWESOME! SPECTACULAR! HISTORIC!

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Faculty and student leaders are dedicated to your success. It's up to you to do your part! Stay determined and focused on academics, but you can still have fun. Take advantage of the resources they have- CUSA, tutoring, etc. and you will succeed.

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

You must study and stay on top of your game. The courses are not easy, but the faculty will help you if you prove you are serious about your studies, classes, and succeeeding.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Totty is the Freshman dorm, much better than Shade in my opinion.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Lots of traditional Louisiana cuisine like red beans and rice, jambalaya, etc. Its good and seasoned well.

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

Free bus to downtown with your student ID to do your shopping. Campus life is cool but just remember why you are there. Football season is LIFE.

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

As an out of state student, if you have good ACT scores and a good GPA you will qualify for in-state tuition which makes it a great bang for the buck for me.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Be sure you go to freshman orientation. You will love it. Student leaders are great, and make you realize you made the right decision. Learn the SU shuffle!

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Dedicated to success and not easily swayed by party life.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Leadership programs will give you a leg up on life.

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

They have their own police department and safety apps so that you can reach the police at anytime/any place on campus.
