Review of Valdosta State University

from Valdosta, GA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

I am definitely learning a lot! The school offers plenty of majors, and the core classes are taught by instructors who do their best to apply the material from that class to the students' majors and interests.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I am from Valdosta, so I initially wanted to move and go to any college but VSU. My parents talked me into staying at home and attending VSU for at least my first two years of college, but now I think I may stay here for all four. I wish I could have the traditional college experience that everyone else has, but VSU is a good fit for me. The size of the school is perfect--big enough to have all the majors students would want to choose from, and small enough to where students can walk around campus and not get lost.

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

Especially if you have the HOPE scholarship, the bang for the buck factor is great! The tuition is smaller compared to the bigger public universities, and you get the same education.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Don't be discouraged by the smaller size of the school. The education you receive here is just as great as any bigger, more well-known school.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Anyone who wants smaller class sizes and is afraid of getting lost at a big school should attend VSU!
