Birmingham-Southern College Reviews
Rating 3.83 out of 5 358 reviews
When researching colleges I took it upon myself to do detailed research on every college in the United States where I could receive a valuable education, compete in my sport, and be a part of a family. I visited twelve colleges in eight states before I found Birmingham-Southern College. The thirteen-hour drive did not deter me from packing up my life in Texas and moving to the state of Alabama because I had fallen in love with the college and the state. I knew I had found a new home.
On my campus, I am a tour guide, an athlete, an orientation leader, a tutor, a woman in stem, an honor society member and involved in Greek life. I do not participate in these activities for my resume. I participate in these activities because I love my community and my chosen family. I love that I was able to choose a college that finally felt like a home and I want to keep being a part of it.

As an international college student who moved to Birmingham-Southern College, I can definitely say that it has been the best decision for my future. I was able to make friends easily and my teachers were always respectful and full of knowledge willing to teach. I love my classes where my teachers enhance my learning and let me speak out my views with respect. Overall, Birmingham-Southern College has become my second home in these past three years of my life.
I like Birmingham Southern College because of our campus life. On campus you can find a wide range of clubs, inter murals, athletics, frats/sorority, and many others. The friends you make here will stay for life!
