Sophomore: Millsaps is a great place to go to school! People can complain about lots of things, but you can do that for any institution no matter where you go to school. The community and social life is wonderful, it’s really easy to make friends and be liked. It is a fun place to go to school everyday, and Millsaps has a beautiful campus to accompany that. To be realistic, the biggest struggles Millsaps faces is the Jackson area, and the campus infrastructure. However, I have heard that in terms of the infrastructure, many issues should be resolved and renovated soon! I would highly recommend at least touring Millsaps, because I never imagined that I would go here, but after touring and hanging out with the people there, I love it!... Read 236 reviews

Junior: My college experience here at Mississippi College has been a rollercoaster of growth. My first step onto campus was delightful, and I knew I belonged in an atmosphere like the one Mississippi College offers. God-fearing welcomes you and eventually, it becomes a sort of natural response. Mississippi College is founded on honesty with others and yourself! You will become accustomed to this beautiful way of life and feel transformed on behalf of God and the universities mission. I believe Mississippi College is a choice that would be hard to regret. The teachers put God forth every moment and encourage the students attending to do the same. Academically there's no place like such. Education never ceases to become better and improve on the things that may have been an academic stressor to the students prior. The town is beautiful and safe. There are endless opportunities to find yourself.... Read 616 reviews

Senior: During my matriculation at Tougaloo College, I have gotten the opportunity to learn from and work with some amazing teachers. I have gained a lot of knowledge being a student here at the prestigious Tougaloo College. Attending Tougaloo College was one of the best decisions I’ve made.
