Tuskegee can be expensive for some, but your money is not going to waste. You will get what you pay for.

For the high cost of tuition to attend this private institution, one would think the accommodations for the students would be better. The good news is there is a new president for the university and he is making changes. Hopefully they will prove to be in the best interest of the students in the future.

I went to Tuskegee because it was close to home (less than 45 minutes away); because my uncle is an alum and because my Mom wanted me to get a great education in an area that would afford me the opportunity to be self-paced. I have Aspberger's Syndrome and she has carefully navigated my path since I was 6 years old. This has been the best thing that I have ever done for myself and I hope to get my master's Degree when I graduate in May of 2013.

Tuskegee is ranked #1 in the HBCU chart for academics. For those willing or planning to come here for college, I assure you, you will get your money's worth. I'm proud to say that I'm a Tuskegee woman because Tuskegee is like no other College/University. Some people may complain about it because its in a small, country town. But those people need to realize how much history is bestowed from Tuskegee, how much of a positive impact Tuskegee has had on so many historical figures such as George Washington Carver. Band for the Buck? I say take the risk and come to Tuskegee. There's No Experience like the Tuskegee experience.

Tuition for a private institution like Tuskegee is expensive so get your money ready! Tuskegee has its ups and downs, but it's worth it.
