Freshman: As a freshman, I was very nervous to start college. I actually had 2 classes in person this semester, but I had to drop them due to some medical issues. Online classes are very fun and easy to complete, when the person is organized. When I first went to the campus to sign up for my classes, the staff and professors were very welcoming. I am very relieved that the first semester is almost over!... Read 641 reviews

Sophomore: South College is a beautiful and organized campus. Any of the staff that I have come in contact with are understanding, and extremely helpful. I have taken online classes and in person, and I can say that the professors are caring, and want their students to succeed. When considering a college during high school, I was unsure if I wanted to experience the large university scene, as I would just be a body in the room, and the professors would not know my face or name. When I toured South College for the first time it felt comfortable and refreshing, as the classrooms weren't huge and the campus was well organized. I have enjoyed getting to know my professors, and feeling like they actually care. I have loved my experience at South College!... Read 275 reviews

Graduate Student: I could say a multitude of wonderful things about Chattanooga State Community College, but if I had to choose one thing to share, it would be how amazing the staff is. Chatt State's staff goes above and beyond to ensure every student’s needs are met; whether physical, emotional, or mental. From the lunch ladies, janitors, and security team, to the ladies in the bursar's office, professors, and presidential staff. Because Chattanooga State is a two-year community college, I would like to see more opportunities for students to practice skills in the environment of their field/major. Other schools may have higher academic scores or even a more "exciting" athletic department, but no one else could possibly have a greater staff. These workers put everything into making sure students have all the tools they need to continue on to higher education or head straight into the workforce. What more could you ask for? Choose Chattanooga State Community College to be a part of your success story!... Read 570 reviews

Freshman: I have had a great experience at Lee University so far! The culture here is awesome, and the professors and students are very intentional in the ways they have looked to form relationships with me in this first semester. I play on the Women's soccer team here, so I have been able to get involved with not only that team, but also several other athletic teams here. The professors are always super helpful and willing to work with my schedule, which makes classes much more manageable and enjoyable.... Read 1,568 reviews

Sophomore: First, I love that you can get your Associates degree completely free! That is super helpful for students like me who are having to pay for college out of their own pocket! Second, the education curriculum and textbooks are very very similar to that of a University’s, meaning you are not losing ANY educational lessons! Finally, the staff and teachers are so helpful! Just about all the teachers there are wanting you to succeed and are super lieutenant when it comes to assignments, deadlines, and grading! The staff are the nicest people ever and will help answer any of your questions! The college building itself is built beautifully, and for students who are fresh out of high school and are planning to transfer to a 4-year college later, WS is a wonderful jump to introduce you to college without the overwhelming thirty thousand students and twenty buildings. Definitely recommend this community college!... Read 481 reviews

Freshman: I absolutely love Bethel and the atmosphere. It's a great school with great professors who are willing to help you and work with you if you are having trouble. We have great sports programs as well as an outstanding Renaissance group! I think that anyone who is looking for a fun and challenging college should definitely look into it! We have a beautiful campus and amazing church services. Bethel definitely stands out and is one of the best schools that I have ever visited. I am so glad that I chose Bethel University....

Junior: I am a transfer student with an Associates in Fine Arts ; my transfer was extremely effortless as well as campus housing . Wesleyan University is very welcoming you feel right at home. They are still working on my 504 accommodations that process seems slow even though that paperwork was delivered 5mths ago. Disability services needs an update, probably more people in that department to insure a good paper trail to students information especially with personal information. Hopefully my issue will be resolved before classes start 08/14.... Read 202 reviews
