Nashville, TN
Tennessee State University

I absolutely love Tennessee State University. The food may not be the best and the dorms are less than perfect, however, the environment and students make it all worth it. I am a generally shy person but the staff and my peers at TSU make the university feel like home. I am challenged by the courses, however, the course load is not overbearing. So far, TSU has exceeded my expectations of what my collage experience would be like. I definitely made the right choice. My one main complaint would be the fact that the financial aid office is not at all efficient. I know lots of students who have had trouble with tasks from getting their loans process to not receiving their refund checks and everything in between. The financial aid office tend to be slow with solving the problems their students are facing and fixing their own mistakes. I have even heard of multiple occasions in which the financial aid office lost important documents and pieces of information regarding students' tuition and scholarships.

I like TSU plenty of my family members received their education there. The people I have met are nice and intelligent. I had a job on campus and my employees where the greatest bosses I have ever met. Our financial aid office is really the only problem at the school but of course, the school isn't a perfect place to be, but I don't mind because I like it the way it is.

I believe Tennessee State University is an exceptional university for academics of the arts or medical/ STEM careers and ,or, services helping in anyway they can. They fully support students, like myself, in finding our path to career to make the world a better place. Even though, the safety of students can be come questionable some days.

Tennessee State is not a bad school. This school is really what you make out of it. Considering it is a Historically Black College and University (HBCU) there are going to be some things that are not right with the school such as power outages and such. but overall it is not a bad school.

As being a first generation student and freshman at Tennessee State University, I believe this school wants to see everybody succeed in life. It seems as if they don't want to see nobody to fail. They are very engaged with their students. They stay on there students about going to class on time, not being absent and overall studying to exceed in our courses. I feel as if this was the right choice for me and I wouldn't want to be at any other university to pursue in my criminal justice career.

Tennessee State University is a HBCU that provides many opportunities. You have the ability to become apart of Greek sororities and fraternities. In addition, getting assistance from teachers is pretty assessable. Campus life allows you to become more social as well as join organizations. However, the two things that could be improved is financial aid ( staff ) and nursing program.

Tennessee State University is an wonderful HBCU . The staff at TSU are caring, kind, loving and welcoming. So far being an student at the university was the best decision I ever made . There are very few 200-300 classrooms, to me that is because you get to know your professors they can help you during a lesson. At Tennessee state you really get the hands on learning experience and I love that . Outside of the classroom there is plenty to do the school leave no one behind they keep you engaged, we even have pep rally to teach us cheer and chants for games.

I believe TSU is a great school that needs a little work just like any University! It is what you make it, and being here I have learned more about me than ever! If you choose to be great and do great that is what you will get from being here!

My overall opinion of TSU is very good. There are always lots of activities to partake in and always someone wanting you to join a club/organization. There is lots of student life, which is very welcoming, teachers and professors are welcoming as well. The only problem would be there are often problems with the university offices like financial aid or records...etc, papers get lost or something doesn't get applied on time. Other than Minor things like that overall TSU is a really great and secure school​ and an even better HBCU. Highly recommend!

Horrible, some teachers are great and care. However financial aid, admissions, records, are all terrible. They lose papers, unprofessional, act as if you’re incompetent, don’t try to help you, and don’t care about fixing their mistakes. The higher ups are always busy and out of office and no one wants to help you reach them about big issues. The dorms aren’t that nice either.
