I love the location and the people are all super friendly. While this is a small town, Dawsonville is about 20 minutes away and Gainesville is about 30-40 minutes away so you are close to bigger towns. There is always something gong on either on or off campus. The hills are a little rigorous, but if that's what you like then you'll love Dahlonega!
North Georgia is a safe and friendly environment. However, it lacks in spirit, sports, and activities. I felt like I was always in my apartment, studying, or at the gym. I hung out with friends in private settings but they're is not a huge party or social culture. They are very focused on the military and ROTC students are held to a very high standard (practically worshiped). It is easy to stay focused on school because of the lack of opportunities to have fun and be a normal college student, so if that is what someone is looking for, I suppose it is perfect for them. It is a very good school in a lot of ways but it just was not a good fit for me personally.
I think this school (Dahlonega campus) is beautiful and is surrounded by mountains. There's usually plenty of parking spaces around, but at times, there are plenty of students around. I came here for the nursing program because I heard their program is pretty great. The food here is fairly good. The people here are nice and will not mug/steal from you or anyone else.
Wonderful Campus

Now being a sophomore in college the one thing I would tell myself if I could go back in time would be to take as many AP classes as I could and work on study habits. It would have been so much easier if I had taken the AP classes and get the needed score so I wouldn't have to take as many core classes in college. It can save you so much money. Another piece of advice would be to develop good study habits early on. I was always good at school, but the way college is set up is totally different, and at first it was a huge struggle trying to adapt to how the classes were, but once you get the hang of it and learn time management it is not that bad. The changes we go through make us who we are and I truely would not change a thing.
The strong emphasis on academic and career success.
The classmates here are helpful. They're willing to share notes and help you study in order to do well in class.
The worst things about my school are its policy on living situations for the first year as well as the high priced meals. The first year of college you don't have the option to live off campus unless you live with your parents. The meals are a bit pricey too especially for the quality.
Very small town feel to the school with very friendly people and professors that know you by name.
If you think the military is a god or you have a military fetish.
North Georgia is a great school for people who enjoy the outdoors and the rural living. So, if you enjoy a big city, NGCSU is not for you.
It's military program, Nursing Program, and Eduacation program
I am not on the main campus. Therefore the small atomosphere is perfect for me and the classroom capacity works best for me as well.
I constantly brag about the safe and accepting environment on campus. Students also tend not to support cliques or make judgments of others. While I am significantly older than the majority of the student population, I have not once felt that I don't belong. The campus itself is also gorgeous and lies in a very small community that offers hometown values as a backdrop. Finally, my college houses the Military College of Georgia and the discipline required for a successful military results in a campus-wide attitude of respect, dignity and pride among all our students.
There are no dorms on campus. It makes it really difficult to meet and retain friends as well as get comfortable with the campus. It doesnt feel like college. The parking is also limited which causes students to be late for their class when it's not their fault.
The girls cross country team has great girls on it.
