It is a pretty decent school. There are some improvements to be made like the community surrounding the school. If there were more stores and restaurants that were accessible that would be good. Another improvement would be finding a place for transfer students to stay instead of putting them with the freshmen. I feel safe on campus and the food here is pretty good too. I would recommend someone to come here.
I attended the Cordele campus so there really wasn't a lot to do outside of class. If we wanted to be involved in clubs or activities we had to drive to Albany. Most of the teachers were caring, considerate, and gave special attention to the needs of the students.
Albany State is a school of great opprtunity and career advancements. If you surround yourself with people that have the same goals as you you are more likely to be successful.There are many things on campus to get involved with such as sports,greek life,and clubs and organizations. There is never a dull moment here on campus ! I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to become a GOLDEN RAM!!

If I could go back to my senior year of high school, i would tell myself to get involved. Although I'm very involved now, I wasn't my freshman year. I felt like I missed out on a lot of things. Well I actually did. But now college life for me is so fulfilling. I would also tell myself not to get so involved that I couldn't keep up with my school work but just enough so I won't have to sit in my room all day and night. Also so I would tell myself to try new things. Stepping outside of my comfort box really helped me find who I was and what I wanted to be. I also met so many people and got to network with different people. So I would suggest to myself to get involved and to try new things.
At Albany State University, my classmates are all different in various ways.
Albany State University is more than a school, its like home.
someone who likes the same campus settung and wanted to gain a turn HBCU exeperience!
The most frustrating thing about Albany State University is that there is not enough diversity among the student body. The students body is made up of mostly African Americans. I wish that there were a more of a variety of people, so everyone can be exposed to different cultures and customs.
I wish someone would have told me about the lack of job opportunities in Albany. For someone who stays off-campus and doesn't receive financial support from my family it is hard to pay bills month to month.
Albany State is best known for our academic undergrad programs (i.e Forensic Science, Nursing, Biology, and Business).
THAT EVERYONE HERE KNOWS YOU. THERE IS A MUTUAL RESPECT AMONG EVERYONE ON CAMPUS
It is a party school, instead of it being a school. There is a party every week and everyday. If freedom and learning came as in equal experience it would be much easier for this school to keep their students focused so that they can graduate on time or graduate at all. Unlike most schools, this learning institution only care about the students that pay the most money. Other students that do not have financial aid do not get much attention and often times drop out, thinking no one cares about them and their future.
I believe the best thing about my school is that it is an HBCU (Historically Black College& University) .It is great to have the knowledge of how the school was made from the founder to other historical facts the school has to offer.It is also a diverse school of not just African American students but many other races as well and it is a great place to learn and network with many people from the United States as well as other countries.
A person looking for a very strict , diverse learning environment.
I brag about how my school is family- oriented. Everyone is really friendly and we show true southern hospitality. The professors and staff at Albany State University really become your family. They look out for you and help you the best way that you can.
the classwork is depends solely on the professor. Some are basic and others require tons of studying. All of my professors have been welcoming whenever I need help. ASU also has study tables throughout the week, to give extra help.
i truly have a love/hate relationship with ASU. some days I love it! the football games, fashion shows, homecoming week, student activities, and just being surround by my fellow students. Even though asu is a HBCU, everyone here is so different, and I love it. And the overall atmosphere on campus is comforting, something i really didnt appreciate until later on. But then there are days when i cant wait to transfer. Financial aid is a pain, they are so slow to do anything and everything,not enough student parking, gross cafe food, unorganized departments, and defunct computer labs. Every time I go to print something off the printers NEVER working.
The stereotype of ASU is that everyone is a slacker or parties alot. Even though there are alot of people here just to party, hook up, and smoke, there are some people here trying to reach their goals and get an education.
