I love Lawson State Community College. They have 200 programs you can choose from and they're affordable than most colleges. They're for your best interests. Lawson do not accept student loans but they do accept pell grants, scholarships, and payment plans. They also have a great workforce program to help pay tuition and other fees. With that being said , you won't be in debt. The campus is safe and easy to get around and it's well kept and clean. The only con is their finical aid office don't have great communication especially with following up on your aid status, which will definitely have a impact on your classes. Overall, I think it's a great college.

I love this college. It's a great place to be! I will be a freshman in the fall and I am excited to begin this new chapter in my life. The campus is beautiful and so are the people. I feel comfortable about getting started. The atmosphere is inviting and the campus is one you can't imagine.

Overall Lawson State has been an awesome college so far! My first semester was great, even though, I got lost a few times but that happens to everyone on their first day. There are a handful of clubs/organizations to participate in, the basketball team is very spot on, the cafeteria food is delicious and the teachers' lectures and the teachers period are great. I always feel like every day I am learning something new. I am so glad I came to Lawson State for my college experience!

Kiana - 03/21/2018

I love the school . Most of the teachers are nice and i can always talk to them and get help with anything i need. I think it’s a great place to get your basics done. So when you go to a 4 year school you will always have the easy stuff out the way . Just like any school there are going to party’s but at Lawson stay they keep you on the right path really try to help you make it in life.
