Review of Winston-Salem State University

from Durham, NC

Describe your college in three sentences.

WSSU is an excellent HBCU of choice. WSSU is a relatively small campus, you will not get lost. WSSU creates and encourages great leaders.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

For prospective students, it college, its a time when you find out who you REALLY are, the type of people you REALLY like to hang around, and the type of STUDENT you are capable of being. At WSSU its all about going hard or going home, which means if you are here for all play and no work, you will not succeed. They demand, encourage and produce the best of the best. If you come in undecided I guarantee you will leave a decided leader.

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

You get what you work for. It is college you will actually have to study this time around it is not like high school where you might be able to cram overnight. There is a lot if information that will be given to you, a good amount of work and all you have to do is be persistent and you will survive until graduation.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Dorm life is essential to the ultimate college experience. You have your all girls dorm, your all males dorm, and of course the upperclassmen and athletic dorms. Its all about discipline, you will be away from mommy and daddy, no more curfews unless you play sports, and youre basically allowed to do whatever. Its pretty cool unless you wish to not go the roommate route.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The café is pretty acceptable, especially on Wednesdays. There is a wide variety of choices whether youre vegan or a daily meat eater your choices are there, but only until 7 30.

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

For fun the campus has game rooms and different organizations that you could be apart of to complete the feeling of being apart of the ram family. There are plenty of local restaurants and f you are over 21 bar scenes are pretty cool too.
