Junior: The professors are very kind, and they try their best to make you feel comfortable in the classroom. There will be times where your professors will sit down with you to have coffee, others will invite the entire class for lunch at their house! It gives you a chance to bond and really connect with the professor. A lot of the courses are challenging, but Lipscomb has a lot of great programs that help with those challenging courses. The labs are very interactive, and truly the best experience at Lipscomb. It teaches you material that you'll need later on in your career. Overall, Lipscomb is very worth it!... Read 842 reviews

Freshman: Belmont has been a great experience so far. All of the people have been nothing short of inviting and welcoming. Initially what drew me to Belmont was the music atmosphere and the location, but upon my first time visiting I completely fell in love with the campus. The campus and the University's grounds are absolutely captivating, and I especially love the campus because it makes it feel more like home and less like school. This school is notably known for its music programs, but it has some other amazing programs as well, and the school is constantly working towards improving their programs every year. No matter what you are majoring in, there are great networking opportunities here in Nashville, and there is always something fun to do! A last bonus about this school is the beautiful music that students play in the gazebos at night, it is so incredibly peaceful, and it's proof that so much talent exists here!... Read 1,784 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 568 reviews

Alum: I absolutely loved my time at Freed. I spent 5 years working on my BBA in Public Accounting as I intended to become a CPA and needed 150+ hours. Five years later, my work paid for me to get an MBA and when I research this, Freed had just started an online MBA program and two years later I had an MBA in Leadership. Work paid for it and then I got a raise for getting it too! I'm still great friends with my roommate and we traveled 12 hours to spend a week with her and her family. I will forever love my time at Freed.... Read 463 reviews

Sophomore: My experience with Visible Music College has been amazing. As an adult learner, it is sometimes really difficult to find schools that will work with my schedule. Visible Music College has been so helpful in that regard. I am a full time worship pastor and I have a wife and a 3 kids. The faculty and professors have been so gracious with me when it comes to class times and my kids interrupting a zoom class. I can't thank them enough. This is such a hands on school. There's so much opportunity to learn not just in the classroom lecture. They give each student an opportunity to use what they are learning. From music production to concerts and leading worship. They desire for each student to retain and put into practice what they are learning. This has been huge for me. Most schools are happy to leave it to their students to retain the information based on lectures and assignments. Visible Music does everything they can to help each student better understand their craft and succeed.... Read 55 reviews
