Many aspects of my college career have created my positive experience at Augustana including real-world experience through clubs and the classroom, weekend life, and the community aspect.
I am studying business communications and marketing at Augie. Many of the business classes are focused on real world experience through creating marketing plans for local clients or hearing about a business professional’s experience in their position.
Augustana’s weekend life options have also led to my positive college experience. With the weekend offering of other clubs on campus and new-found college friends, many students—including myself—find themselves WANTING to say at Augustana on the weekends.
Augustana truly is a community. With the small campus size, there is always someone you know and always someone new to meet. The professors care not only about your class performance, but also about your well-being—they become friends outside the classroom!

Augustana is a home away from home, with some of the most amazing and welcoming facility and students. Augustana has a drive to always be improving, and that is evident across campus, in their courses, and with their staff. I love Augustana! SKOL VIKES!
Augustana has given me many opportunities to succeed and grow personally and academically. My professors have been incredibly supportive, checking in on me while studying in the hallway and remembering personal details I had shared with them. As a nursing major, my course load has been heavy, but the clinical experience I have received is extremely helpful. Augustana has partnerships with both local hospitals, which has allowed me to see so many things and work in almost every area of nursing. I have made many life-long friendships during my time at Augustana, and there is always something to do either on campus or in Sioux Falls, so I'm never left bored. I am glad my mom persuaded me to come on a visit of Augustana. I wouldn't trade my time here for anything.
