Alabama State has gotten better going into my sophomore year as my freshman year I did not so much enjoy it. I only say that because of the living conditions, it was a time I had no air condition in 85 degree heat for a month. Then the food that is served in the cafe is not healthy nor is it good. My experience has gotten better along the way because I live in a better dorm on the other side of campus and also have gotten more involved into organizations and events held on campus. It has led me to meet new people and be able to have more outlooks on what goes around on campus. I would say I enjoy it here at Alabama State University now for the most part as I don’t have a lot to complain about outside of the cafe. Though, the administration is not the best neither as you can tell some genuinely don’t care for the students and are just there for a paycheck. The love and mentorship that I receive is outstanding though and something I cannot complain about and plan on graduating there.

I enjoyed my time in ASU. I was able to build a great relationship with my teachers and friends while receiving great formal education. If you make good use of your time, you will definitely succeed at Alabama State University. The small size of class makes it easier to benefit fully from your instructors. There are tons of career fairs, network activities and extracurricular activities that would boost your chances of coming out as a good professional in whatever field you find yourself.

“They attended a campus tour and were greeted by friendly students who shared their experiences and stories. Ashley felt a sense of belonging and connection, like she had found her home away from home. The campus was filled with diversity, and Ashley loved the idea of being part of such a vibrant community.

Review Alabama State University

I just got accepted so there isnt much i could say about the classes. But i do know i will love it at alabama state. My tour there was amazing! Best tour i ever experienced.

The administration should work better on working with the students to ensure that they have all that they needed.

I love my HBCU, but with all schools, they have some problems. The school staff doesn't do an excellent job of fixing problems that occur. At the beginning of the semester, nearly half of my friends trying to return to school were refused because there wasn't enough housing.

My experience at Alabama State University so far has been a very decent experience. My first semester, I was enrolled in 16 credit hours and getting to know the campus as much as I could. My second semester, I joined a dance team and got more exposure to the campus. Now it is my third semester and I am a part of the Rehabilitation Services Club serving as the historian. I love the fact that there are so many different opportunities on this campus! There are people from all of the world that attend this college, even students from France! What I would love to see change is strictly the authorities when it comes to the particular things such as housing, safety, financial aid, etc.

Transfering from a high school student into a college student I definitely was welcomed with open arms. Alabama State University is definitely a home away from home experience. Professors, Advisors and faculty staff are always available to help guide you. Alabama State gives you a chance to grow.

It was fun and it made me comfortable. I felt good being around people that understood me and accepted me.

It was mediocre at best. I had an ok time. The school provides on-campus experiences for students and provides them with resources. They are slow to respond to situations in all areas and don't advertise the resources. If something breaks or goes wrong it takes almost a whole semester to fix. With good friends, it can be bearable and even fun but without purpose or even friends attending there full time is not recommended.

I will be attending Alabama State University as a freshman in the Fall. So far, the staff at the university have been extremely nice and helpful to me. There's nothing that I would change. I am very excited about attending this university. My great grandmother and cousins have attended this school.

My experience at Alabama State University has been riveting. Personally I would say Alabama State University feels more like a community. It gave me a place to feel comfortable and appreciated as a black young women in America. Throughout my time at ASU i have learned more about myself and my culture than I have my entire life. My school has given me a place to step out of my shell and experience life around peers I can relate to on a personal level.

And the overall experience was pleasant. The staff was kind and welcoming. Many opportunities and had different ways to get involved.

I love how its a smaller school and everyone is so friendly and its not hard to get any help from anyone! It has been a pure joy! I have nothing negative to say about ASU the culture is top tier!!!

Alabama State University changed me to become better wise man.
I have a clear direction where I'm heading in life. The professors guide and teach while making me feel comfortable. I've grown a lot socially and mentally. I'm so glad I chose this school.

The school is totally unorganized and unprofessional they took funds that I was rewarded and did not talk with us about it. Until I called and went up to the school.

I loved being apart of the MBA program however it was very unorganized. We would receive grades several weeks after submission dates. Class schedules were confusing for the summer term.

Review Alabama State University

Alabama State University is on the cutting edge of technology. This university is innovative and progressive in every area.

I enjoy the community at Alabama State University! The people are friendly and helpful. I love how much the school interacts with the students with the offering of events and such. However, I would like to see a better communicative response from faculty at times. As well as access to a variety of scholarships!

The professors in your major really support you and help you to make connections that will help you get employed in the future. Advisement is not the best and may hold you back from graduating at your expected time.
