I love the campus so much !! I've visited at least three times and it helps that my parents are alumnae of Spelman and Morehouse so I can get on often. The people are so friendly and the women act like ladies, it embodies what I want to be.

I love being on campus everyone is different and everyone is special in their own way. Spelman takes the extra effort to make sure the students have a great time on campus. They even have an organization that is designed to do just that, plan fun stuff on campus for the students. Whether is a movie night or even free mani and pedi's during homecoming for all the students.

i was there on campus for five weeks taking classes over the summer. The professors are wonderful and do their best to help you succeed, and the sisterhood you will acquire is something so powerful you will not even be able to find words to describe it.
