There's no other college to attemd but Southeastern! The food is great, the students are great, the teachers are great, and the classes are great! Everyone is so nice and always willing to help. There's so much diversity and so many different options for your majors and extracurricular. Located in downtown Hammond, you're a walk or a short drive away from all kinds of shopping, eating, or just fun. No better college.
Review Southeastern Louisiana University
Loved the historical and beautiful campus! Also, is a very diverse school as well! The weather was a little bit too hot for my liking but it's easy to focus on other things when you're walking around like all the trees and beautiful buildings. Southeastern has a lot of things to do, but I would say that homecoming week is the most fun out of it all, and hey, there's free gumbo!
When I visited the Southeastern Louisiana University for Lion Pride Day, I was treated like family! The staff shared very valuable knowledge about my upcoming collage life and cost! I am so grateful SLU reached out to me! I can not wait to attend there campus! The campus is very well kept and clean. So far, the students and teachers really care for each other. Everyone is so respect full of each other and the campus grounds.
