Categories Comments Great for these types of students great for pretty much any student. that's what i like about it so much, there's so much diversity there.
Tips for prospective students they take forever when it comes to financial aid and admissions, so be patient, but it really is a good school and they do try to help students
Bang for the buck i received a full scholarship, and an honors scholarship, and had enough left over to pay for my books and still got a refund of almost $1000 from the stuff i didn't use
Am enjoying being here its a really relaxed environment, the teachers are pretty cool, and they have a learning center which has free tutoring, which helps a lot
Am learning a lot its only my first semester, so i haven't learned much since i'm just getting my basics out of the way, but they do have a lot of classes for me in the future that i will take. they have a lot of variety there.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students If you are wanting to study Criminal Justice, come and get in Dr. Larkins and Ms. Reed's program. They will turn you into amazing Crim students.
Tips for prospective students If you want a great learning experience and people who care about you getting a degree, come to ASU Beebe.
Bang for the buck I had to pay a little out of pocket but that was because I didn't have enough scholarships.
Am enjoying being here The people are great. There are people from everywhere and listening to the things people have done are incredible. The dorms on campus are amazing!
Am learning a lot I love ASU. Most of the teachers here are great they want you to learn. I was not planning on staying in college; however, I found out when I came to ASU how much I could learn.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Any and all!
Tips for prospective students Always ask questions even if they seem stupid!
Bang for the buck Books are rather expensive at times, but you don't have to get your books from the school. Books are relatively cheaper than most schools. Its the best place to go to school if you are just using aid or paying out of pocket.
Am enjoying being here Its a great campus that has very friendly people. I love going up to the school, whether I am taking a test, or meeting my advisor.
Am learning a lot I love my advisor! I can contact my advisor when I have any question, I can get any information I need about classes, aid, anything I need to know about school. It's very easy to log onto my campus connect, and check on my grades or account status. I can go to the college at any time during the week to get extra help or tutoring if I am struggling in a class. The teachers are great. I have taken all but two classes online and I find it to be a great experience. The on campus classes are fun and you really learn. Online is easy as well. You learn a greater responsibility to get your work and tests done and in on time. The school offers so much and many programs. When you get your degree you can transfer to another program to get a higher degree, but stay at that campus.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students This school is good for a student who enjoys a friendly, quiet atmosphere with helpful faculty and administration.
Am enjoying being here Everyone I talk to either on the phone or face to face from prospective teachers and tutors to counseling and financial aide advisors are very friendly and helpful.
Am learning a lot I took College Algebra this past semester and it was a difficult class for me since I have not had a math class for over 20 years. I went to the learning center 2-3 day per week and the tutors helped me make an A in my Algebra class!

Categories Comments What to do for fun there are many activities that take place on campus as exercise programs, the gym, and outside turf for tennis or other events. there is always something going on on campus, never a dull boring day like i say.
Food and Dining i honestly don't do lunch and dinning of the campus since it is always pact with many students but is a good lunch program they have where the food is decent and you get what you pay for.
Dorm Life dorms aren't a bad idea for people living away. there are walking distances in the campus and is very spacious if i didn't live at home i would be living in a dorm on campus.
Academic Rigor they offer many career paths and help students find out what their looking for and to become into life. i had no idea until i started seeing ad visors of campus. i can get all my stuff done there before and after classes within minutes instead of struggling on my own, the learning center helped me.
Tips for prospective students its the best community college to start a college life at. its cheaper and especially for me its closer to home. for on campus stay isn't a bad idea for the dorms are walking distance of the campus.
In three sentences asub is the perfect college to start out to, is easy to get around, and is helpful in studies. many programs are offered for students here. i love going to asub.

Categories Comments Campus Safety The campus police are very helpful.
Greek Life There isn't any Greek life.
Great for these types of students First year college students who want to stay close to home.

What to do for fun There are many clubs and organizations you can join.

Dorm Life They have dorms but they are small and most people don't say there.
Academic Rigor The classes are relative to the size of the high school classes and teachers are always available if you need help.
Tips for prospective students Prepare yourself like you would for any other college. Just because it isn't a traditional college experience doesn't mean you can't still have a good experience.
In three sentences Arkansas State University is a great school for a transition into college life. It's small but a great school. Plus they have 4 year programs there through ASU Jonesboro.

Food and Dining The food is not so great. I wish the food plan was optional.

In three sentences I like it here. It's a good value and it's close to home.

Categories Comments Campus Safety The campus police are always around. Usually two or three. They watch over us like we are their own.
Clubs and Activities There are several different clubs. Myself, I am in RHC (Resident Hall Council), Leadership Council, and AG club.
Bang for the buck The school is amazing, as I have said before. There's always someone there when you need help. Even working at ASUB everyone is just like family.

Categories Comments Tips for prospective students 1. Look up your teachers on ratemyprofessor.com before taking a class and listen to what the comments say! (The students, who have rated the professors for this school, are normally pretty accurate.) 2. It isn't always necessary to buy the book for all classes; know your teacher/ your teacher's teaching style. 3. Take notes and never miss a review.
In three sentences I have enjoyed school at ASU-Beebe, during the last few semesters. I've have had some pretty awesome teachers, classes and experiences there. Also, It's easy to transfer credits from ASU to most universities, making getting your degree less painful!

Categories Comments Campus Safety They have a campus police which I like because I feel safe.
Clubs and Activities Many different activities in which students can be involved.
Great for these types of students There are a variety of students from different places.

What to do for fun For fun students can play sports, go to the library, and do activities with clubs.
Food and Dining The food is really good!! :)
Dorm Life The dorms are great! Enough space and close to all the locations in the campus.

Categories Comments Campus Safety I have never had an issue with security on campus.
Clubs and Activities They have a wide selection of clubs for such a small school, though it's all very traditional or religiously based.
Great for these types of students It's great for non-traditional students. The professors have been understanding and treated all of us with respect. Traditional students with a good sense of self-responsibility would also do great here.
Bang for the buck I think this school is great for the price - the professors want to help you get your degree, and compared to other schools I've looked at, this one has the lowest prices for the best education.
What to do for fun Beebe hasn't got much going on, but if you join a club or activity you're likely to have plenty to occupy your time - assuming of course that you're also putting a good deal of study in to keep up those grades!
Food and Dining The food was fairly good and amazingly cheap, and even if you bring your own (microwaveable) food, they're happy to help! The hours were a little scant - they shut down between meals, so if you eat earlier or later than most people, you're at the mercy of the vending machines!
Dorm Life I didn't stay in a dorm.
Academic Rigor It depends on the class, but most of them are focused on making sure you understand as much as possible about the subject in order to pass the final exam - which is usually comprehensive and few teachers make it easy.
Tips for prospective students If you're needing to learn Spanish, you might want to go somewhere else - they have ONE Spanish teacher who epitomizes the absentminded professor. Also, don't take the online classes expecting them to be easier - they are NOT.
In three sentences ASU-Beebe has an older campus with a lot of charm and some newer facilities that make it look very nice in most places. The class sizes are pretty large for core subjects - usually 25 or more students. The faculty is great, so long as you are respectful to those around you and are truly trying to further your education.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Laid- back students. PERFECT!
Food and Dining Not much here.
Dorm Life Could be better but still great.
Academic Rigor I love the academic portion of my time here. I learn a lot. I also feel very empowered to be around great professors.
Tips for prospective students Get started early. If you are in high school you should go ahead and start planning. College is a big step and it takes time to get ready. The longer you wait the harder it will be
In three sentences This University has some of the best professors I've ever meet. Most of the students here will make you feel right at home on your first day. My first day here was better than I ever imagined.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Awesome campus safety. Almost every 20 years, there is a tower with lights, and a phone to call campus police if you get scared, are getting followed, or any reason you would need to contact someone. Maybe even if you had fallen and gotten hurt.
Great for these types of students Students trying to get through school soon, start a career, have a full time job, that can only attend school a couple days a week, or even nights.
Bang for the buck Awesome school for the bang for the buck. You save money since you don't have to pay college tuition fees. You also have the option to take 8-week courses so you can get more hours per semester and only focus on a certain number of classes for a 8-week period then 5 or 6 classes for a 16-week period.
Food and Dining I don't attend a campus that offers food and dinner.
Dorm Life I don't actually live on campus.
Academic Rigor The teachers set a standard for the students that is needed to learn what is needed to get through the course. The teachers will help you if you need help and are willing to meet up with you outside of class, so that you meet those standards. They also give you a timely manner to meet those standards.
Tips for prospective students Definitely look into attending classes at the Little Rock Air Force Base. It is much cheaper since the building is a government provided building, so you don't have to pay for actual school tuition.
In three sentences I actually attend a branch of ASU-Beebe, at the Little Rock Air Force Base. This school is very clean and all of the teachers are extremely nice and willing to help out or answer any questions. They will work with you if something were to come up.

Dorm Life most of the dorms are new.Living at the dorm you get provided with food for free.The dorms are very clean and students are given cleaning services for free.
Academic Rigor The courses here are somewhat easy and somewhat hard but we have a learning centre where there are tutors who can teach you after classes and it is one to one teaching which can make it easy to understand.also we have trio program which helps students to be successful in their classes too.
Tips for prospective students Choosing Arkansas State University is a great idea.it is the cheapest and yet the best college you will find.
In three sentences Arkansas State University Beebe is the best community college.Students have been able to achieve more than they expected that is because we have the best professors who work very hard .Most of all the environment at ASU Beebe are the best for a person who want to concentrate with school.

Categories Comments Food and Dining never open when im there.
Dorm Life don't live in dorm.
Academic Rigor The professors are very helpful.
Tips for prospective students Well i have only been attending for 3 weeks now, but hearing how hard most classes are in the learning center, just be ready to study. It's nice to have breaks in between classes, so you have time for homwork while on campus.
In three sentences Fall of 2012 is my first semester in college and it reminds me of high school. the classroom are the same size,but i like it because i'm not as scared as i was. Everyone is nice, except for the finacial aid women.

Categories Comments Campus Safety When visited Searcy campus, actually toured with campus security. Security is visibly present.
Great for these types of students School is great for students that need more one on one attention.
Bang for the buck The people at the Searcy campus are very helpful and friendly. They take an interest in each and every student. They want to see the student succeed. They take time and effort to teach the student not just teach a class for the paycheck.
What to do for fun There are 2 TV's in the student lounge with the snack bar. You can play Wii on one of the TVs, play ping pong on the ping pong table or just sit and relax. Many of the instructors go in there with the students during their breaks and check with their students to see if they need help with any of their work. It's very laid back.
Food and Dining they have a snack bar beside the bookstore. There is a TV in there too. (Searcy campus)
Academic Rigor The structure in the diesel program seems like it will be straight forward with class and lab time. The lab will include working on diesel engines but will also start with the basics, like how to take of a hood or a tire , etc.
Tips for prospective students Think in advance of what you want to ask before you take a tour. Ask as many questions as you need to (they are very nice and will answer them for you). Take your time when visiting there so you have a chance to decide if this is the right place for you.
In three sentences I will be attending the Searcy campus. It is a small, clean, friendly campus. It seems to be a great place to attend school because the instructors in the diesel program where I am going were very open to answering any questions I had when touring the campus.
