I love this school! Its campus is very beautiful and peaceful. Classes are medium sized, depending on the course. Some courses may have ten students, while others may have around 30 students. I have been in both. Smaller classes are brilliant because it gives the student the opportunity to speak to the teacher one-on-one. Also, teachers' office hours are very flexible, so you can speak to them on your own time. Clayton State University has multiple buildings that are very decent. They have an Arts & Sciences building; a laboratory building; a College of Business; and another building, James Baker University. It's easy to speak with your advisor on your courses needed for graduation as well. The courses are also not very expensive compared to other universities. There is a diverse student body with numerous student activities to choose from.
It's a cool school. I've been here since August of 2020 & my experience has been well for the most part. Being in school since the pandemic, we were limited to doing certain stuff & not too much was going on, but now mostly everything is opened up. We really weren't able to do too much last year, but I feel like now the experience is way better since activities are back up & running. The professors are good for the most part & I really haven't dealt with any bad professors. You also have really good tutors for any subject that you're having trouble with, no matter what it is. Don't be afraid to ask for help. I was going to drop a math class because it was way too difficult to me at first. I ended up getting a tutor, & since then, I started doing really good on homework, test, & quizzes & I ended up passing the class with an B. If I never got the help I needed, there's no telling what would've happened if I kept the class. Overall, this is a good school.
The online learning experience I would say is challenging at first (especially if you are used to attending class in person), but once you get the hang of it it’s a breeze from that point. I would say the most difficult part about taking online classes is that you sometimes the professors would not respond to my emails regarding concerns about the course work. This was frustrating because it could put you behind depending on when they would respond. The good part about online classes was that it was a great way to keep students safe since the start of COVID-19. The only thing I would change about this is the communication forums.
