Freshman: Tulane University is so fun and lively. The classes are interesting and valuable, and the professors are very passionate and care about their students' success. The campus environment is amazing, and there is an abundance of student resources. The city of New Orleans is a blast, and uptown New Orleans is relatively safe. I may be biased as a student at Tulane, but I genuinely believe it is the best university, and I am so happy with my decision to attend. Tulane University is a community, and I encourage anyone interested to apply. Roll Wave!... Read 1,657 reviews

Freshman: I feel like this is a good opportunity to go back to College at Central Louisiana College. I am in interested in the H-vac and refrigeration degree. The professor seems to be knowledgeable and nice. This is a Technical degree which can help me get a good paying job after I graduate and it's hands on and not just not all classroom. I will be able to live at home, work part time and still pursue this degree with out the added price of living on a campus. Hopefully this degree will open up endless job opportunities not only within my state of Louisiana but also, out of state jobs if I wish. I like the idea of being able to go to a Technical college without the big college price. For the town of Alexandria there isn't alot to offer as far as job opportunities with out some sort of degree. I want to be able to work part time in the H-vac while I attend school. I am excited to meet new people and explore the possibilities that this degree has to offer.... Read 63 reviews

Freshman: My experience at Loyola University New Orleans was truly transformative. The university's strong commitment to academic excellence, social justice, and community engagement left an indelible mark on my college years. The diverse and inclusive community at Loyola fostered meaningful connections and friendships. The Jesuit tradition of education instilled in me a deep sense of purpose and ethical values. The vibrant city of New Orleans provided a unique backdrop for my academic journey, with its rich cultural heritage and opportunities for personal growth. Loyola's emphasis on community service allowed me to give back and make a positive impact. Overall, Loyola University New Orleans provided not just an education but a holistic and enriching experience.... Read 1,019 reviews

Sophomore: Very helpful staff! Smaller classes, therefore less stress and pressure in class. Very highly rated professors. They have a more affordable tuition with a variety of class options. It's a 2 year college, but with the amount of classes they offer you can continue further into a 4 year degree before having to transfer. Offers a variety of online, hybrid, and on campus classes. Highly recommend this school!... Read 61 reviews

Junior: Such an amazing school!! Filled with such good hearted peers and administrators.. They help out in any way possible rather that be a simple question or interest, they leave you satisfied! The campus is beautifully structured and easy to navigate without a campus map.. The instructors their are also helpful and do everything they can to help students understand the lessons being taught.. Although most of my semester courses were taken online, I still get the chance to experience everything a college student is supposed to! Definitely recommend this community college to anyone interested! Also, they add new majors almost every new fall semester. Fletcher Rocks!!... Read 93 reviews

Sophomore: I enrolled at South Louisiana Community College in 2021. My experience at the school has been mostly positive. I took a class with a very special professor who did everything she could to make sure that I was successful in finding my correct advisor, giving me the tools and resources to ensure I was taking the right courses to transfer to the next school, and she's helped me a whole lot even after I was in her class. I've had a few professors at this school who were incredibly helpful in making sure that we did well in their classes. I would recommend anyone who wants to begin their college career to attend South Louisiana Community College - Lafayette campus. The staff are friendly and always helpful. This school will make sure that you are successful in your transfer after attaining your associate's degree.... Read 201 reviews

Freshman: My time at the University of New Orleans (UNO) was a transformative experience that I will forever cherish. The vibrant campus and diverse community created an enriching environment for learning and personal growth. One standout memory was the interdisciplinary project where students from various majors collaborated to address a real-world issue. This experience not only broadened my perspective but also honed my teamwork and problem-solving skills. Additionally, the city's unique culture infused every aspect of campus life, from jazz performances to Mardi Gras celebrations. UNO provided not just education, but a holistic journey that shaped me into a well-rounded individual.... Read 791 reviews

They are quick to help with any questions I have or any problems that may arise. I love the small class size and love the feel of the campus. I would recommend starting your college journey here and then transferring to a larger university during junior year. That is my plan for the future.... Read 62 reviews

Freshman: I've had an amazing experience with everyone from Centenary from the soccer coach to the admissions office. The soccer coach was extremely influential in my decision to play college soccer. During my unofficial visit, the coach took me on a tour of the school. I was excited about the classroom sizes and athletic facilities. The coach was extremely personable and down to earth. He convinced me that Centenary would be a perfect fit for me. Unfortunately, Centenary College is a private school therefore it cost a lot of money to attend. I wish my dream college was more affordable. I'm taking out student loans but I'm nervous about having a so much money to pay off after college. I would love to avoid such a HUGE student debt when I complete my four years at Centenary.... Read 179 reviews

Alum: I am a graduate of Xavier university of Louisiana, i graduated in spring of 2021 and honestly your time at Xavier is what you make it. I was a biology pre-med major and that track is not the easiest track to follow. The classes require a lot of time and focus. However the professor and your peers are there to help, go to the resource centers if you need help. The cafe decibels has good food on Wednesday and fridays those were my favorite days. The activities and student life on campus is 10/10 you have to get out of your dorm and meet people. Xavier focuses heavily on community service and has plenty of service opportunities. Our athletics is a pretty good program I was about of Gold Star Dance team and had a blast. All of our games are always heavily supported by our students. There are many organizations to join on campus. In closing the party life is amazing as well there will always be something for you to do, I mean you are in New Orleans. Hope you choose XU!...

Junior: I transferred to Delgado from a bigger four-year college and realized that I wish I would've came to Delgado sooner. Delgado is a better fit for me because I can go to school and do online classes all while still being able to live at home and work for my money. The professors really want you to learn and succeed. The only thing that I would change would be making it easier to get in touch quickly with the faculty at the school. Not many answer emails or phone calls until days after, which I wish wasn't the case in times of stress dealing with scheduling and financial aid. Overall, Delgado is a good college and I would recommend it to others!... Read 690 reviews

Sophomore: I love everything about Nunez. From the staff to the students. It's one big happy family and I'll recommend them to anyone! I have been attending Nunez for some years, but I've been working on more than one major at once. I have received 3 degrees and am working on my fourth. Receiving this laptop would mean the world to me. I still have the one my mom gave me before she passed. It's very slow and needs updates, but I'd rather have a new one so I won't have to part ways with the one I was given.... Read 53 reviews

Junior: My experience at ITI was awesome! I was a person going into this type of program with very little knowledge. My professors all helped me with getting around the school, answering questions about certain topics, and also taking that one on one time during their break hours to help with homework. This school is amazing! It’s all about focus and helping us as students get to the next step in our career. I love how faculty also steps in. By this I mean they walk around the school seeing how some classes are, if we are seen in the hallway they’ll ask how’s it going or if there’s anything I can help you with let me know, all these things take a toll on how I see the school and I love it. It’s easy to get around, we have hands on training like no other school, and since then I’ve gone from a B, C student to the Deans list as of last term! I am more than excited about what my skills and knowledge will bring to my new career thanks to being a student at ITI Technical School! Thank you!... Read 141 reviews

Alum: The University of Holy Cross soon became my home away from home. Despite its size, the University offers quality programs in in-demand disciplines. The small classes sizes ensure that every student gets individualized attention and, at UHC, you’re not just a number on a spreadsheet. Attending UHC give you the best balance between school and social. Only a few miles from the city of New Orleans, UHC is small and far enough to focus on your education, but close enough to let yourself have fun and explore as well! If you are looking for an institution thar genuinely cares about you and your future, look no further!... Read 174 reviews

With me personally my teacher takes time out of her day to send me words of encouragement and some days that is exactly what I need someone to reach out and let me know they care about my well being and my future it gives me the strength to keep pushing ahead and to not give up. The teachers at remington are hands on with showing us things and very patient with the students that finds it difficult to stay focus or to understand.
