North Carolina A&T State University Reviews

Currently, I am thoroughly enjoying my time as a student at North Carolina A&T State University. A few of the many things I enjoy are the opportunities to have a semi-formal relationship with my professors due to smaller class sizes, the ability to learn amongst a diverse student body, and finally the friendliness of the school staff and faculty. One thing I would change would be the food options available on campus. While the food is quite tasty, we are in need of additional healthy food options!

North Carolina A&T was not my first choice, but I am delighted I chose this school. I have networked with so many individuals and made a lot of life-long friendships. I didn't, however, feel challenged until my junior year of college which is unfortunate, but that may be different with some people. Some teachers really took interests in helping students while others didn't. With academics and professors, I feel could be better along with the food options as well. However, all around NCAT is a good school and it was a great choice!
North Carolina A&T State University is an amazing school! It is very diverse although it is considered an HBCU. The everyone on campus is so friendly & an we are all honestly like a big family even though we don’t all know one another. Our school has so much pride and creativity. There is always something going on on campus for our entertainment. The teachers are amazing and actually care about the students! We also have many helpful resources such as free tutoring. There are so many more positive things I could say about this school. I’m glad I chose this university!
