My experience was overall a good experience. Loved the campus, register ing for classes was good, not mind boggling, food choices good. Campus transportation days, night & weekends was very helpful. Especially trips to area shopping and near by other college campuses. Diverse group of people. Professors were available when needed. Loved being able to connect with them by email as well as office visit. Security around campus and in the dorm was good. Campus life (student activities, football games, Greek life) great. Enjoyed!
Review North Carolina A&T State University
Well what can I say about A&T? If you're looking for acceptance and a family environment, then this is the right school. We have a variety of career choice students love. Despite the fact that the school is an hbcu, there is still much diversity and everybody is treated as an equal and will feel at home and welcomed right away. Academic awards as well as artistic talents are broadcasted as well. Many of the events in campus include talent shows and prizes are rewarded. We are so supportive and always show great Aggie pride! A major part of growing on campus is networking, and there are so many people that would be willing to help. All you have to do is ask. Personally I speak with counselors and veterans and disabilities to accompany all my needs. So if you need accommodations or special services there's no need to worry! We're all here to help. I would recommend A&T state with 5 stars overall because I have fallen inlove with this school.
I fell in love with this school after my first tour. The history behind the campus, the area that it's in, and the campus itself are beautiful. Just after completing New Student Orientation (NSO), I really got a feel for how the school runs. We had student leaders basically running the orientation, which was fun. They had lots of fun activities planned for us; parties, skits, learning all the chants and cheers to show off our AGGIE PRIDE!
