When I first got to Philander, I had a full ride scholarship. I ended up losing it due to me just not doing what had to be done, and the faculty worked with me day in and day out. We came up with tactics to help with costs, and I'm happy to say that I'm glad I stuck around. The people are always smiling even when rushing to classes. The classes can either be hybrid, online, or full time. Hybrid classes are both online and in person, the days just switch out. The hybrid classes were my favorite, because it was kind of like a break even though we still had work. Being on campus surrounded by your friends makes the experience memorable.
Philander Smith College is a great college that offers a lot of help to students striving for excellence academically; there are tutors for just about every subject provided free alongside with long library hours for students to complete their projects, papers, and ect. I love this friendly campus which is also continuing to grow. They are great at welcoming any new visitor/students coming on campus. The only issue I would say there is at Philander Smith College is that if a student would want to transfer to another school, they would have to retake some or even most classes as there is an amount of credits that aren't transferable... Oh! I almost forgot the maintenance requested by students should be done as soon as possible as there will be weeks passing by before they even do the job needed done. Philander Smith College is a great school overall with some dissatisfactions, but what school doesn't. The only thing I really wish is that we would have more sports here as we only have basketball, volleyball, cross-country, and indoor track-and-field.
My overall opinion about Philander Smith College was that it gave me the opportunity to meet new people and Gave me the choice to gain bonds with the professors. The first time I stepped on campus the wonderful mentors had already accepted me as a family member here at Philander Smith College. WE ALL ARE ONE !
Philander Smith College is a great school. They put their academics first and I love that. It's a very small campus, so everything is accessible. The campus feels like home. The teachers and surrounding staff members are all there to support you and wants to see you succeed.

Knowing what I know now there are a few things that I would go back and tell myself. One thing is to be activie. It is important to get your face out there and socialize in order to have a good college career. Another thing is to be prepared. You become in control of your life there is no one there to tell what and what not to do. It is hard sometimes to not party but to study you have to decide what is more important to you. Also partying is not a bad thing you just have to have a balance. Another thing is find a good positive group of friends to be around. If you are with people who are doing positive things you are more likely to be doing the same. Finally have fun. College is supposed to be the time of your life. Make sure you learn but do not miss out on the lessons and experiences outside of the classroom.
everybody is cool
The school is great.
Philander is known for being a Historically Black College University.
Philander Smith College is a historically Black College designed to educate and graduate students successfully. The campus is not too small but not too big. It is just right and serves as a hands-on college. They have a great Academic Career Center where any student can go to get help on any subject. asome on is always around to assist you with your issues. They also have a great tutoring program that any one can sign up for. Around test time Philander staff holds study sessions for students.
The lack of professionalism with the faculty and the lack of student activities.
A person who is not yet ready to start at a big college and wants to have smaller classes so they are able to focus and get the grades they would like and better understand what is really going on
The kind of person that shouldn't attend Philander Smith College is someone who wants to go to a large school. Philander has less than 1,000 students. With it being a small school there is a strong feeling of community where everyone knows who each other is. For people who like to be able to be lost in the crowd, Philander many not be for them.
The thing I brag the most about my school is the class sizes. Attending a small college gives you many more oppurtunities to have academic gain. The class have usually no more than 30 students which is excellentAlso, the teachers always post office hours and give us their email if we have any question or concerns. I really love that about my school.
Because of its small class size professors get to know each student very well
Before I came to this school, I wish I have known the choice I have concerning class schedule, the kind of credit that could be transferred and could not be transfereed as well as subsidized loans and unsubsidized loans.
