    I loved the atmosphere a VolState! The campus is big enough to feel like a college, but small enough that you don't feel like just another face in the crowd. The teachers are personable and actually remember your name! There are plenty of extracurricular activities to involve yourself in, on and off campus.

    Being fresh out of high school, I can say that it was hard to enjoy going to school everyday. I remember wanting to spend so much time on my school work and in some instances not being able to because of all the distractions and things. Now, I don't have to worry about that at all. From what I have experienced so far, my time in the classroom has been wonderful. The drama you deal with in high school is gone and its much easier to focus on your school work. Off campus, its a relaxed atmosphere, but all the while, you are working hard and enjoying working hard.

    I really enjoy my experience at Vol State. I enjoy the small class sizes, easygoing students, and the helpfulness of the teachers. Student Activities plans lots of campus events, so between those and clubs, there are tons of ways to get involved and meet new people.
