05/10/2023At first, i'll be honest I did not enjoy it and wanted to transfer up until the spring semester. I actually applied myself and really started to have community which is something Asbury truly values along with their student body, they put us first. It is a special place. I have thought about if I did transfer, how sad I would be that I am not at Asbury, I know it is where I belong now. The staff is amazing, I would be as bold to say we have the most caring profs out of any college... I recommend just taking a look if you are considering at all.

06/08/2021Where do I even begin with this review? Asbury on the outside looks like an amazing school. If you take a campus tour, you will be completely convinced and persuaded to attend. However, I advise that you take a step back and rethink other options before attending this school. There are no words to describe how bad and overpriced the on campus housing is. Glide-Crawford is falling apart. Paint is peeling off the walls, there are holes in the walls, the windows are dirty and dusty. The mattresses are very old with urine, period blood, and other mysterious stains. The community kitchen, aka the commons, has a weird smell and always dirty because the girls don't know how to clean up after themselves. The shower curtains have mold on them and there is mold in the corners of the showers. As well as, the occasional sewer bugs. You have to pay extra to live in a single dorm, and you don't even get a closet if you live in a single. The rooms are already tiny, but the single is extremely small but costs more than a double. I\'m also very disappointed that Asbury did NOTHING for the 2020 graduates during the COVID-19 pandemic. They had an online graduation, but that was it. The school did absolutely NOTHING else for these students who spent well over $120,000 for their degree and spending 4 years at this school. Smh. Even the University of Kentucky had an in person ceremony for their 2020 graduates. Also, the classroom buildings are old and falling apart. The desks are old and the classrooms feel like a high school. The professors don\'t know how to use the technology, especially if they want to use a powerpoint. Chapel is mandatory for 3x a week, which is fine. However, the songs are repetitive, and boring and the chapel speakers are a hit or miss. The only nice thing about Asbury are the professors and the financial staff, which is really sad. Don\'t get me started on the caf food. 2020-2021 food was horrible and such a waste of Styrofoam and money in general. They upped the meal plan cost, yet their lettuce was always brown, always served fries, fried chicken, burgers, and pizza. The healthy choice options sucked, and looked like someone either threw up or regurgitated the food. Overall, the school is overpriced and overrated. They only care about students who\'s parents have lots of money or have connections. You\'re honestly better off at a state school, and it\'s cheaper!

04/16/2020I think what makes Asbury great is it's community. The students are very close knit there and are willing to get to know one another. The classes are ALL beneficial, even the Gen Eds, and as you sit in class you feel you are learning important information from intelligent teachers. The community centers itself around a christian faith and the community reflect a spiritual attitude that is real. Asbury hopes to send its students out into to the world to help change it for the better.

03/27/2020I enjoy many things about Asbury including the small but extremely loving community built there. The school is small and the class sizes are no more than 30 students, my smallest class is 12 students. Our school is a christian campus, meaning we attend chapel and have worship from 10 am to 10:50 am Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The professors are always there for you both spiritually and educationally as well as the many groups to join outside of the classroom. They're very artistic and the friends you make are ones to keep beyond the classroom. Asbury holds small adventures that lead to wonderful memories.
