Georgia State University Top Questions

I love my school.I got admitted into a Master's program for Fall this year and I can not wait to start classes.I know I made the right decision.

I really enjoy that it is in the middle of downtown Atlanta. Yes, it can be unsafe at times, but it is a real city experience. It is comprised of such a diverse group of students from all backgrounds, religions, values, races, etc. It helped me become an Atlantan.

Awesome sauce! Nice energetic atmosphere. Huge family of networks. All of Atlanta right at your feet.

My opinion of this institution is that it is a highly prestigious school with many career opportunities. The school resides in a great location, downtown Atlanta and is a very superb place to start my college career. I am ecstatic to start my educational journey at this college and I intend to major in Nutrition to become a nutritionist for a sporting agency. Also, I am still trying to pursue my athletic career with basketball and the team at this university just won a conference championship. This school smells like success, and I am very excited to get started.

Georgia State is an excellent higher education institution.

Georgia State is a good school. There are not too many things that I would change as I am currently satisfied with how things are. It has a great student life with events being planned every week. Also it has great accommodation services for the students that go there. A few things that I would change is the dining staff and some classes need to be renovated. The dining staff always comes off as rude and they never seem like they are there to serve you. Just yesterday (although this happens almost every day), as I was about to pay for my food the Georgia State cashier was very inpatient and used profanity towards my friend before eventually rolling her eyes when my friend told her to "have a nice day." So we usually just end up eating off campus when we are not crunched for time. As for the classes. In sparks hall for example, it appears as though mold is seeping out of every vent in there because if you look at it there is a greenish, black hue that surrounds every vent. The classrooms are also outdated in terms of technology. But besides those two major complaints GSU is a great campus.

Georgia State to me is a little overwhelming at times. The homeless people asking for change everday to the random people who act as though there students when they are really just random people from across the way. lol If I wanted to change anything at GSU it would be the amount of food places in the Universities building. Who wants to walk all the way to the center of downtown just to eat. We need more choices on campus. I think a lot of GSU students complain about the library hours. I mean why cant we have a 24 hour library! On exam days I could study forever but NOT in the library. A big controversy at stae right now would be the debate against tuiton increases for the next school year. It is honestly getting ridiculous. The best thing about state WHO WOULD'NT want to go to school in downtown ATL. We have major people on and off campus, internships are right accross the street. Free laptop rentals in the library, parking on campus at the meters is free after 7. Our shuttes run till 2am. Our dorms have a 24 hours check in or out policy. Your guests can come anytime you like. COLLEGETOWN all i can say is look up our video by Frenchie "BLUE BLITZ". "WE IN THE CITY WE GONE PAINT IT BLUE, STRAIGHT FROM GSU THIS IS WHAT US PANTHERS DO WE GO TO COLLEGETOWN, COLLEGETOWN, COLLEGETOWN, DOWNTOWN.!

Overall, I adore Georgia State University. Georgia State is relatively big at first, but once a student starts going to classes, the university really is not that big;the is especially the case because a lot of the buildings are in the same area. People react pretty interested when I tell them I go to Georgia State. Many are just interested because it is in Downtown Atlanta, and they find it hard to believe that the majority of students are commuters. When I am not in class, I tend to spend time in the library or courtyard. Personally I would not classify Atlanta as a college town, but this is because Atlanta is so large that it cannot really fit into a college town classification. The most common student complaint I've heard deals with the One Stop Shop and class openings. Some mandatory classes are incredibly difficult to get into, especially depending on your major. Classes are also hard in the fact that sometimes one has to wait a whole year before being able to get into a certain class. The One Stop Shop can be rather unhelpful at times; you have to know exactly what your doing because they'll give you the ring around if you do not. My freshman year when I transferred in, I faxed some important papers in, but the One Stop Shop misfiled them; it resulted in my being dropped from all my classes. Since then, I have not had any problems because now I know what I'm doing.

I love Georgia State University. The location is wonderful. There are so many people to meet. This is a great school to go to network. There so many connections here. Everybody is always lending a helping hand. The professors here are great. I loved my professors so far.

I love how open my school is, and not closed in like other college campuses. I feel Georgia State University is just the right size for a college. I spend most of my time in the library, the Panther Den, or the courtyard. However, when I tell people I attend GSU, the approve of the choice but they frown at the environment. There is, nonetheless, a lot of school pride, which makes me extremely happy. Smoking and tuition are huge complaints but neither so far has made changes in a way where everyone is happy.
