Categories Comments Campus Safety it is impossible to go five steps without seeing security. there is a guard everywhere and you cannot move around campus without your school id to show that you are apart of the college. this keeps the undesirables out for the most part, but, like every school out there, not all of them can be kept from coming onto the campus.
Clubs and Activities there are all kinds of clubs that can be joined while there and each one is always looking for new members. and if there isn't a club there you would like to join, the school is very open to the prospect of a new club.
Great for these types of students science and math majors, also a great school for anyone just starting out going to college. its a good starting point, because it is cheap and easy to get into (for now anyways).
Bang for the buck it all depends on the teachers and the classes. i know i had trouble with one of my classes and its still kind of rocky when it comes to organization in the classroom.
In three sentences nice school very organized and helpful whenever needed. growing and expanding campus as i type this, because it has just become a four year college for science and math. in the metro atlanta area and easily transported to through bus services

What to do for fun the basketball games , and joining a club.
Food and Dining the food is alright , they need more variety.
Dorm Life there are no dorms . but i wish they did , but i think they are planning to build some in the near future .
Academic Rigor the academics is they have a academic center where you can go for extra help in any subject. they aslo offer free classes to help you adjust to college life .
Tips for prospective students i would advise to do early registration , because if you wait to late you will be stuck with a bad school schedule . get in good with your advisor and teachers because they are really helpful if you use them.
In three sentences atlanta metropolitan college is a good school to attend to help you prepare for a four year . i really enjoy some of the teachers because they care and they do not mind you coming to their office hours to ask for extra help.

Categories Comments Food and Dining the food is nothing to complain about its even at good prices as well.
Dorm Life Metro does not have dorms at the point. They are building more buildings to expand the campus
Academic Rigor the academic rigor is not that bad. everyone is pretty good with following the rules. i personally do not have a problem with following rules because at the end of the day thats how everything stay in tack.
Tips for prospective students Come into the school with an open mind giving there techniques a chance because it is different from other universities but i promise you wont regret it once you have taken the courses you need.
In three sentences I think Metro is an AWESOME school. I thought because I was enrolling to a 2 year school that it would be pointless. On a scale from 1 to 10 I give Metro an 8. My friends that went off to 4 year school and now considering coming to Metro because believe it or not there teaches are way ahead of what they are learning.

Categories Comments Dorm Life there are no student dorms. i think there's only something there for the basketball players.
Tips for prospective students right now this college is just a two year college and it's meant to prepare you for a four year college or university. it's relatively an easy way to get your core classes out of the way and get directly into the stuff you want to get into.
In three sentences it's easy to pay for if you have pell grant. the classes are easy if you choose your teachers wisely. if you don't have transportation to the school, there's a marta bus that takes you straight there.

Categories Comments What to do for fun Go home. There's a REC center with pool tables, I guess you could go in there and shoot some pool. I just go home.
Food and Dining I love the food. Most of the time. They have a wide variety. Salads, fruit, burgers, wraps, chicken, you name it, they can probably make it.
Dorm Life There are NO dorms. So if you plan on moving out, yeah, that's not going to happen unless you move somewhere in Atlanta.
Academic Rigor Some professors don't teach all that well. Some. A lot of them do. Just prepare yourself for DIFFERENT teaching styles.
Tips for prospective students If you do go to Atlanta Metropolitan College make sure you have a purpose. It's not a hang out spot, it's not for fun, actually go there and do the work. Use your time wisely.
In three sentences Atlanta Metropolitan College is full of drama. The workers at this school are unreliable. Atlanta Metropolitan College is affordable but definitely not the place for me. Don't let what I say influence you to maybe miss out on an oppurtunity of a lifetime. Remember, this is a review which means that I am entitled to my personal opinion.

Categories Comments Campus Safety 4 stars. Available 24/7.
Greek Life small groups.
Clubs and Activities Phi Theta Kappa, Dance, Basketball, etc.
Great for these types of students AMC offers personal trainers.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus none available.
Bang for the buck 4 star for residential students.
What to do for fun AMC is a small college so not much to do. If available join clubs or sports.
Food and Dining 4 star. I love soul food Wednesdays.
Dorm Life none available.
Academic Rigor 4 star.
Tips for prospective students AMC parking is not the best so get there early or take MARTA. Study, study, and when your done study some more! Take your education serious and never be afraid to ask for assistance.
In three sentences AMC has been a good experience so far for me. I graduate Summer 2012. I mostly appreciate the help/understanding from the professors.

Categories Comments Campus Safety There are always campus security patrolling at all times on foot, car, and bike.
Clubs and Activities Psychology club, book club, dance, cheer leading, basketball, etc.
Great for these types of students Students with jobs or kids, or other side priorities.
Bang for the buck The teachers are very helping. Even if in reality they don't care about you, they act as if they do. They answer all questions to the best of their ability, stay at school after their hours to work with you, use via email and phone wisely.
What to do for fun For fun Atlanta Metropolitan provides sports teams like any other school. Every other week or so there are different little festivities to engage in, such as talent shows, Opera's, etc.
Tips for prospective students For prospective students i would recommend that you get all yours application pieces in before the deadline, because they have a lot of last minutes that are trying to get in. Also, register for classes ahead of time.
In three sentences Atlanta Metropolitan, overall, is a good school. It is not a very big school, which is nice and very good because the teachers don't have 100 students plus per class to deal with, and you can get a hold of them. It helps every one in every way possible.

Food and Dining The cafeteria food is pretty good.
Dorm Life There is no housing on campus.
Academic Rigor Many of the classes can be very challenging; therefore, study...study...study!
Tips for prospective students Communicate with the students and faculty to find answers to any questions you may have. Make sure to have all financial responsibilities taken care of prior to the first day of class. Make sure not to take class that is irrelevant to your major.
In three sentences Atlanta Metropolitan State College is a great school because of the flexibility of the classes for the students. This college is expanding and now offers four year degrees. It is a great college to attend if you work and have a family. I love my school!

Categories Comments What to do for fun There are different clubs at the school depending what your interests are.
Food and Dining The food is pretty good if your not used to home cooked food. but you will need to add your own seasoning for taste.
Dorm Life They do not have dorms because the campus is not big enough for it.
Academic Rigor Depending on what your major is you would have to determine if its a good school for you.
Tips for prospective students If you want a school where you don't want to travel so far this is the school for you. Or if you just want to get through your first two years of college and don't want to spend much then this is a good fit.
In three sentences It is an all-around good school, for just about anyone to attend. Whether they are a traditional, non-traditional, or transfer student. As well as being a school that is easy access to.

Categories Comments Campus Safety The campus has full security and police officers. It is very safe and secure!
Greek Life Im not aware of the Greek life yet either.
Clubs and Activities I havent been involved in any of the clubs or activies yet, so Im not 100% sure yet.
Great for these types of students This school is great for students who have been out of school and now know what they really want to go to school for.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus As of yet I havent come across any unusal traditons. The campus is not to large, so everything is within walking distance.
Bang for the buck I believe that Its great that AMSC offers Hybrid classes and select online clases, so if you work full time or you have other things going on the school is very flexable in helping you still acheieve your goals despite any set backs.
What to do for fun For fun there is a student activity board that always post new activities to do and be involved with.
Food and Dining The food is ok. It could be healthier but it is readily available to everyone
Dorm Life I dont stay in the dorms at AMC
Academic Rigor Most teachers are flexable and willing to work with you. They are extremely helpful and attempt to help you as much as they possibly can. So even in the toughest of classes there is help available. The Rigor comes from the amount of classes you have and your focus towards your studies.
Tips for prospective students I recommand that every student attend orientation. Orientation helps you start off your year balanced. It gives you structure and a standard to stick by. I also advise students to complete all fafsa and financial aid as early as possible. It helps students to be able to focus on they're studies rather than any financial issues that can become frustrating.
In three sentences Atlanta Metropolitan is the school of Redemption. It gives student from any age, race, and background to come and make their dreams com true. It offers balance, while pushing students to their fullest potential.

Categories Comments Campus Safety very safety
Greek Life a small frat somewhere... nobody really knows about them because they don't do much.
Clubs and Activities Theatre department.
Great for these types of students Take the opportunity to utilize this resource close to home.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus nope
Bang for the buck nope
What to do for fun just hang out with friends -- go over to their dorms, maybe play some video games, hang out at the on-campus pool hall, go to a fun school event if there's one going on (like a swing dance or a movie night). Just figure out what you enjoy doing.. and do it. That's about all there is to it.
Food and Dining Campus dining rankings based on student ratings of dining halls, variety, and quality of food.
Dorm Life Dorm life at college can be exhilarating, and it can be exasperating. Most of the time, though, it�s somewhere in between. You get the picture. Dorms are sort of a benign boot camp for young, idealistic freshmen. Every year, all across America, millions of strangers are asked to share their lives and living habits for nine months during a year of stress and adventure. �Almost sounds like a recruiting ad for the Navy, doesn�t it?
Academic Rigor Rigor is pushing yourself beyond what is easy. We push ourselves beyond our individual limits in order to get better at something. No, that is not a brilliant definition, but I think it's worth explaining this clearly and often to our students. Sports, reading, math, anger management, dieting -- to make progress in anything there has to be an element of rigor. Plain and simple.
Tips for prospective students 1.Recognize the environment -This is often difficult to do depending on your background. If you grew up in a city or attended a large high school, this will likely be easier than it will be for students with different experiences. 2. Adjust to the changes in the academic requirements
In three sentences I like this school. It will help me to become what i want to be in future.
