I have overall had a good experience at Athens State. Some professors are unorganized and that is why I am giving it 4 stars.
I have experienced a very good staff at Athens State, with the willingness to help. I have also experienced kindness and understanding. I have been grateful for the community Athens has given me and the interest they have taken in me as a student.
Athens State has been a really good choice for me allowing me to take all classes online. The instructors reply quickly and help me with all questions. The Navigate app is a great resource that helps me with all aspects of Athens State.
The teachers are what makes this college worth attending. Many of the teachers have already worked in the private sector and started teaching afterwards. The teachers want you to learn what you will use in your future career instead of just memorizing the entire course book.
I like how Athens State is very involved with its student base, and how they make sure they are mentally staying strong through the semester. The main thing I think they can fix is that there are not many options on professors on the classes you have to take for your degree.
I've heard great things about everything offered by Athens State University from both of my parents as well as many other family members and friends. My plan has been to attend Calhoun Community college and then transfer to Athens to complete my undergraduate degree.
As a non-traditional student who had made many stops on my educational journey, I was not expecting much from Athens State when I arrived. I thought it was going to be just another in a line of schools that failed to fully interest me, but were necessary for my goals. This assumption could not have been further from the truth.
Drs. Moyers and White were the kind of professors I had always been looking for. They provided incredible feedback and insight on papers and instructed in ways that brought life to the texts. The office of the financial aid was also incredibly helpful. When I was going to have a short discrepancy that would have cost me a few hundred dollars and potentially kept me from achieving my degree, they worked with me to find a scholarship to cover the amount.
I am proud to call myself an Athens State alumnus and hope this review steers you in that direction. You will not regret it!

The academic teaching, at least at Law School where I was a student, was of high quality. What was not as expected is the connection between theory and practice.
The instructors are really thorough and thoughtful. The campus is clean and well maintained but also has a lot of historic architectural appeal. During the pandemic, a lot of in person classes swapped to zoom unexpectedly. The teachers were accommodating of this and made themselves available at all hours to meet our needs. I thought this was going above and beyond by catering to us when it was obviously not their time on the clock.
Athens State was the best experience of my life and would recommend to anyone! Everyone is extremely nice and helpful.
I have now attended Athens State University for a year. I just completed my spring semester, and I could not ask for better instructors or a better institution to be learning from and at. My advisors and professors have been very helpful. They have so far efficiently assisted me along my journey of becoming a secondary education teacher. The campus of Athens State is smaller than others, but is so beautiful and litter-free. The buildings are exquisite. There is plenty of accessible parking. Both stairs and elevators are conveniently available for use to get to classrooms, and there are clear, roomy sidewalks for traveling between campus buildings.
My experience here has been great. The professors and staff and kind and always there to help and offer feedback.
I attended Athens State online and received my BA. I am also currently attending a graduate program there. I believe I have received a quality, well-rounded education. Additionally, Athens State is affordable priced. I would recommend it to anyone.
Athens state is the most perfect college in every way. It gives you the same opportunities as major universities, but with a smaller university setting.
I love Athens State University. The one on one interaction that you have with the teachers is a great thing. The teachers and staff are so nice. I'm glad that I chose this school.
Online learning is fantastic. Teachers are still assessable to help you with what you need! Work is very organized and teachers are always sending out announcements on when things are due. I have never had trouble with my online classes. They are a great thing during this pandemic.
My favorite college ever! This colleges main focus is on their students. I love going to class and feeling right at home. Every teacher wants to see their students succeed. The faculty and staff is amazing. Highly recommend Athens State. I would not have wanted to go anywhere else.
