Valdosta State's staff is about as friendly a group of people as you will find anywhere else. I am in my second year here, and I feel more confident about reaching my goals every day. Being an Honors student, I worried about the potential workload. Every single one of my classes has been thought-provoking, challenging (at times), and most definately rewarding.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
Valdosta State was my first and only choice for college. I was looking for the school farthest away from home that would allow me to keep the HOPE scholarship. Once you have arrived, there are numerous activities to keep one busy. I am a part of the Honor Student Association as well as the VSU Tennis Club. The one downside to attending VSU is the sweltering heat. Give it a week, and you'll adapt.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Valdosta State University is the total package. Finding one's way around campus is easy - most everything one needs is within walking distance. VSU's shuttle buses are also very convenient (the new ones have air conditioning!). There are also a number of choices when it comes to dining. VSU's meal plans will keep money in one's pocket. Not down for cafeteria food? VSU offers a number of retail dining centers including Chic-Fil-A, Quizno's, and Salsa Rico.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Manage your time wisely! If you really want to have the best possible college experience, manage your time wisely.
