Since this school in an urban environment, I believe that a student at this school should be somewho who sees the positives in the negatives. Being in an urban environment allows you to have opportunities for research and discovery that one might not normally have a chance to experience. Georgia State University needs to have people attend who care about the school and the city of Atlanta. They should care about how the future will unroll in a city with such a rich, historic past. In my opinion, the word of the student that would attend would be: revolutionary.

To attend GSU, you need to be the kind of person that does not mind traffic or going to classes in an urban environment, since GSU is located at the heart of Atlanta. You also need to have a good sense of direction, since the school is so large and complicated to navigate. As an undergraduate, the class sizes are really large as well, so you need to be the kind of person that does not require so much attention that it detracts from the lectures.

Dominique

Georgia State is a good schooland has great techers. If you are going to go into Marketing or Business, this is a good school for that. Other than that this is not a very good school for fun. Unless you have a car you cannot do much. Also the campus is pretty dangerous at night, so dont go out alone.

Amanda

Georgia State University is the perfect school for academically driven students, who want to learn from professionals. Also, students are provided with the opportunity to participate in research programs headed by many of the schools professors. This very often requires large amounts of time spent studying, researching, or conversing with other students about assignments or lectures, but the pay off for the amount of work completed is great. Any individual seeking to learn from the best in the field would benefit greatly from attending this school and would feel at home at Georgia State Univeristy.
