    Am learning a lot

    I knew I wanted to go to a college with small classes before I even applied to colleges. My favorite part about my classes is that my teachers know who I am because the classes are so small. Another plus to the classes being small is you know the teacher will be able to have time to answer your questions during class rather than you having to meet up with them outside of class. The teachers so far have been able to answer all my questions within class. They are always willing to help you learn a concept and are happy to see you when you walk into their office during their office hours. There are so many ways to get help too. The Tutoring Center has been very beneficial while I tutor one of my friends because when we found a problem I couldn't describe well enough we could go to them and they broke it down into an easier way to understand. They are all experienced in their work and they are open at convient times, unless you are procrastinating and waiting until the weekend to start your work. Also you can check your courses on your mycats and it will list the emails of your classmates (or instant messaging if people are on) to get help or ask if you missed something in class.

    Am enjoying being here

    My favorite part about the college is that Georgia College and State University is beautiful. So many people sit outside of the dorms and play their guitars and sit around and talk even if they don't know you. As I walk to class I leave at least half an hour early so I can listen to people play music or socialize with people. When I had an hour between my Biology 1108 and lab, I would sit on front campus with a book underneath a tree with my friends that were going to class with me. You get a lot of fresh air because the wind gently breezes through, and they have lots of trees, grass, and bushes to circulate clean air. They also have a lot of intramural teams, clubs, and sports. You don't have to know how to play a sport to be on an intramural team, in fact it's more fun to get a bunch of your friends together and go play! Or if you know a lot of friends joining one and you don't want to play they allow you to stand on the field and cheer for the teams. Since I am a female I am usually cautious about my safety, but I have never questioned my safety since I have arrived. The whole campus has lighting at night and even the Grove (the apartments behind the dorms) has lighting. Some of my friends live in the Grove and I was worried about walking the extra distance to see them, until I saw how well I could see the road I had to cross. Also if you ever feel uncomfortable walking alone they have a golf cart that goes around campus at night offering to give you a ride (S.N.A.P). If you ever need the number it is posted around campus and inside Sodexo (commonly known as Saga). Also You don't have to worry about waking up really early just to get to class on time. Everything is about 10 minutes away from the furthest dorm (Foundation).

    Bang for the buck

    Everything will seem expensive at first dorms over $2000 a semester, freshmen requiring meal plans at $1800 a semester, then classes, student fees in the dorms, activity fees, transportation fees, and so forth. But when you add up all the benefits of what you don't have to pay for when you get to college (computer lab, study rooms, dorm pizza parties, dorm Halloween parties, computer repairs and so forth) you begin to realize you're actually not paying an outrageous price for college. Compare the prices to other schools. This college has small classes almost like a private school, but you're paying for a public college. Dorms are expensive, but the fancy apartments are about the same price. You will save more money after your freshman year, but overall you don't spend more than you estimate. The bookstore is a little sneaky and over price you, but you can always avoid the bookstore by finding them elsewhere or rent them like I did.

    Tips for prospective students

    Make sure you have over a 530 on the writing portion of the SAT. They tell you they don't look at that score, but they do once you are in college. If you don't make a great score (like I did) they will make you take extra tests (the Regents test). If you do well on that part of the SAT then you have less to worry about in college. Make sure you study of course, but do not spend your whole time studying. You need to meet new people. Don't just hang out with people you met from your high school explore new things. I joined the International Club because there are foreign exchange students in there and it is fun to learn about different cultures. Join a few clubs to let you know it's okay to relax after a long day of studying. You aren't required to go to every meeting anyways. Make sure you occasionally check who your roommate is before you move in (they do change) and plan what each of you will bring. There is no promise you guys won't get along, but don't walk in thinking negatively or else you will have problems. Be willing to share space and be nice and don't bring the opposite sex in all the time, because they want privacy too. Always ask and make sure you express your boundaries. Tell them what you do/do not like happening when you are/aren't in the room. Overall have fun! It won't be hard to do, but remember you do need to study and have a great college experience!

    Great for these types of students

    Students that want to learn with smaller class sizes and be able to ask questions and get to know their professor. The campus is medium sized so you won't know everyone so you can socialize with a lot of people without feeling you have no one left to meet. If you like the nice fresh air from outside. The dorms are big enough not to feel cramped. Good college for social people because you most likely won't have a lot of students from your high school going with you.

    Am learning a lot

    With class sizes only 20-25 students teachers have a better chance to get to know you personally and help you with any problems you are having. Just about every class is equipped with power point and computers to help students learn. There is also a tutoring center, language labs, science labs, and a space lab where you can learn about different stars. Recently we have added a nursing and exercise science building to give students a more hands on experience. There are also several opportunities to join research teams.

    Am enjoying being here

    The campus is so beautiful. The faculty and staff are really nice and helpful. I really enjoy sitting on the front lawn reading a book or playing Frisbee. I also enjoy going on river walks. There are lots of different clubs, intramural teams, sororities, and fraternities to join. Our basketball team is really good too. Last year we went to the NCAA 2 division play offs. There is not much crime either, and the town of Milledgeville itself has pretty much everything even a Walmart. The campus as this new program called S.N.A.P. that helps students get back to their dorm after a late night of studying at the library. Every thing is really central too.

    Bang for the buck

    I thinks the dorms are really worth the extra money. The food is just your basic cafeteria food, but they do offer lots of variety. You also learn a lot too.

    Tips for prospective students

    My tips for students are to study hard, but have fun at the same time. Try new things in college. You may find a new interest. I recommend getting to know your teachers too since they will be the ones you will be going to for references. Get to know your roomate early. Things will go much smoother.

    Great for these types of students

    GCSU is a great school for students who are looking for smaller class sizes, a medium size campus population, and a beautiful campus. The dorms are also really nice since they are suite style. GCSU is also for students who want to have fun and learn a lot at the same time.

    Tips for prospective students

    Have a good GPA and admissions essay. My ACT score was a 21, so the test scores aren't a priority.

    Great for these types of students

    This is a good school for students that want a small town. and a liberal arts college. It offers a lot of courses, and a lot of majors. The campus is beautiful.

    Am learning a lot

    It is definitely a learning experience here at Georgia College. I've learned so much from the upperclassmen here about where everything is and how everything works. My adviser has given excellent strategies for studying and getting through the first semester. My professors have taught me a lot about the multiple classes and have taken my high school thinking to an even higher level.

    Am enjoying being here

    I am definitely enjoying myself here. There are so many people that you can hang with and so much to do once you have completed an assignment or just need a break. Everything is within walking distance and for the shops that aren't there's a shuttle that will take you there if you don't have a ride. Georgia College makes me believe in perfection.

    Bang for the buck

    Depending on your major or what you're actually here for Georgia College is worth the money. It's worth it to me because I'm a nursing major and Georgia College & State University is one of the top nursing schools in the state of Georgia. The dorms are great and usually spacey (and if you get lucky you'll get an awesome roommate). Each hall administrator wants to make sure that you are safe and that you aren't disturbed and you can come to them for anything.

    Tips for prospective students

    My tip for students would be to manage your time wisely. Don't procrastinate when you have a big paper due for Lit or a project due soon in Math Modeling or Statistics. Spend time each day progressing towards the finishing of the project or study. But also don't overwork yourself. Everyone deserves a break from time to time. If you've spent five hours studying then it's okay to chill with a friend for a few and get a few laughs in.

    Great for these types of students

    Georgia College & State University is great for students who are looking for a place that feels like home but is still challenging. Everything that you'll need is within walking distance and there are plenty of people here to help you get through a tough subject like Chemistry. The dorms are kept clean but your rooms are left to you and your roommate, which gives you a sense of living on your own.

    This campus provide hands on experience that will prepare you to be able to go into your career confident and prepared.

    Am enjoying being here

    I love the chance to be able to meet people of diverse backgrounds. In addition, this school is relatively small with about 6,000 students in a rural town. this is a great chance to be able to focus on school and be apart of a family like atmosphere where you can know everyone if you wanted to.

    Bang for the buck

    It is worth every penny. A great school with hands on experience, teachers that you have access to if you have any problems, and a family like atmosphere where a person can make friends and a community that works along side the students that attend with volunteer services. Plus we get professional businesses from all over Georgia that come to provide students the opportunity to put their skill into action whether they are currently enrolled or are about to graduate.

    Tips for prospective students

    Use your resources here at Georgia College and State. Get to know your teacher well until they know you personally that they can help you if you should have problems. Also be actively involved on campus and in the community. This will give you the chance to really grow as a person and learn a lot of life lessons.

    Great for these types of students

    Students who love to challenge themselves academically, love to help other and be actively involved in school and the community, and those who love to learn about different cultures.

    Georgia College & State University offers small class sizes which allows students to work closely with teachers and students. This personal attention that students receive is crucial for many students to get the best education possible and GCSU does a great job of providing this for students. The small class sizes allow students to ask questions within the allotted class time frame, eliminating the hassle of meeting up with a teacher for help outside of class. Also, technology in the classes have been updated (SmartBoards, Powerpoint, etc.) which aids teachers in explaining lessons. This semester, I took full advantage of the Learning Center which is a tutoring center for students who need help in various subjects. Thanks to this center I cleared any questions I had in my classes and I felt prepared for all of my tests. All of the tutors in this center are very experienced in their field and work hard to teach students.

    Am enjoying being here

    I have really enjoyed my experience at GCSU. One of the biggest things about this school is the size and the beauty of the campus. It is a beautiful place to be and the town is a great small town to live in. Everything you need is close to campus and if you do not own a car, the GCSU shuttle is a convenient way to travel. On campus I frequently see students relaxing under the trees, playing frisbee, socializing, biking, and overall having a great time. Also, I currently live in the dorms which are very close to the campus. Living the dorms is a great way to meet people and get to know your classmates.

    Bang for the buck

    Without a bought I believe that any student will get the biggest bang for his/her buck. Each semester students pay for tuition, student fees, parking, dorms/apartments, activity fees, special fees if needed for a class (example. biology lab fees), books, etc. I think GCSU prices everything reasonably and since this college is similar to that of a private school, I believe students are getting a great deal.

    Tips for prospective students

    For the prospective students who are looking to attend GCSU the biggest tip I can give is to study hard for classes whether you think the class is important to your major or not. GCSU strives for excellence and it is important to work to the best of your abilities. Also, I advise students to really to get to know the teachers. The teachers are extremely friendly and getting to know them will really help you in the class. In addition, GCSU offers all assortments of clubs and sports, and it is a great way to get to know other students and to contribute to the college. There are clubs of all interests ranging from religion to science clubs. Take full advantage of everything GCSU has to offer.

    Great for these types of students

    GCSU is a great school for students looking for a small school, but don't want to pay the price of a private school. It is also great for students looking for a small college town with great people and places.

    Just attended their Fallfest. Really enjoyed the atmosphere and student conversations. Very open university platform.

    Will enjoy being here

    Small campus, comfortable small town feel. Where everyone knows everyone. Very safe environment!! Dorms are new & clean.

    Bang for the buck

    Get a lot for your money. Looking into the RLC for Nursing (Residential Learning Community). Seems like it offers a great transition from HS to college with friends and team mates that are going through the same issues as you (same classes too). Appears as though you create real friendships that last a lifetime. New facilities for Nursing (40 beds and simulation characters to mimic real life experiences). They also offer a great program for future teachers.

    Tips for prospective students

    Do your homework and ask a lot of questions. Always visit the financial aid office -you can learn a lot from the people that work there.

    Am learning a lot

    I have learned so much since I have been here and this is only my first semester! The classes are not just your typical math and english classes but there are many classes on topics you never studied in high school. I am taking an America's Diverse Culture class and we are specifically talking about different races such as African Americans, Whites, Irish, and Chinese and the struggles they faced coming to America. I find it very interesting and the teachers are very helpful!

    Am enjoying being here

    I am absolutely loving it here! I can;t say anything negative about it! Its beautiful campus, good class sizes, and so many opportunities for community service and groups to get invovled in make it such a great college!

    Bang for the buck

    Its definately worth the money! A good thing to remember though is how important it is to keep your grades up so you can recieve Hope. There are also many scholarships to apply for that you can find out about by contacting the Admissions office.

    Tips for prospective students

    Apply for the early application and write a good essay describing how your different from others! Diversity is big on this campus! Also if you are a nursing major look into applying for the Residential Learning Community for nursing majors. I am in it and it has been a great experience. It allows you to room with other girls in the same major and most of thw same classes as you. Its really helpful when it comes downt o studying for midterms! You already have a great study group! It also alows you to get some experience in the field on nursing before you actually start the cohort.

    Great for these types of students

    Its great for students who want to go to a semi big college but with a small college feel. Its so easy to get involved and meet new people here. Be willing to work hard and get involved thats the only way you will truly appreciate it here!

    Georgia College has a beautiful campus. Teacher to student ratio is small enough to where you will not become lost in a sea of students. The school challenges you in every way possible.

    Tips for prospective students

    Go to the library. It really does help being in a study room and not your room. Ask questions; even though it may seem scary, the teacher will help you and chances are, more than half the class has the same one. Have fun at least once a week! Your brain will fry unless it gets a break every once in a while!

    Academic Rigor

    Like I said, this school challenges you. The teachers want to see how you have learned and how to apply it. They are not just going to hand you grades.

    Dorm Life

    The dorms are really nice and close to campus. Walking is good for you and you meet tons of people and lifelong friends! The RAs are always there to help and there are tons of dorm activities and events! Just try and be positive about moving in/out. It's always a pain.

    Food and Dining

    It goes half and half. The cafeteria (Saga, not The Max)... do not let them fool you. All of the upperclassmen call it Saga. Well, it has it's good and bad days just like any other cafeteria. There are also on campus restaurants like Subway and Chick Fil A, and the downtown dining is right next to front campus, so go there too! Kuroshima and The Brick are two yummy favorites!

    What to do for fun

    The Campus Activities Board (CAB) always has something going on plus your dorm or apartment complex. The downtown scene is fun at times, especially when The Deeproots Festival comes into town. Also, Capital (nightclub) has singers come in for a Friday night usually. Then the best weekend (Homecoming) is when the school hires a famous artist or band to come have a concert for us. We have had, Sean Kingston, BoB, and Third Eye Blind since I have been here!

    Great for these types of students

    If you love small campuses and the countryside, this school is for you!

    Clubs and Activities

    So many clubs, I cannot even count! There's a club for every major/minor and random clubs like Salsa Dancing and you can even join CAB if you want!

    Greek Life

    Tons of sororities and fraternities! We have Kappa Delta, Phi Mu, ADPi, Zeta, Delta Zeta, Pi Kappa Phi, Pi Kappa Alpha, Kappa Sigma, Delta Sigma, and Kappa Alpha!

    Campus Safety

    Safety is number one for GCSU! There are tons of police always patrolling and there are call boxes every 20 feet or so in case of an emergency. In the dorms, there are also call buttons for emergencies. The GCSU police will give you a ride back to your dorm on golf carts, this is known as SNAP. You can find their number anywhere! They will even come and jimmy your car door if you need it or jump your car if the battery is dead... trust me.

    What to do for fun

    TONS of places to do outdoor activities.

    Bang for the buck

    There's great people on campus! Friendly teachers who are willing to help. The amenities we pay for are well kept.

    There are TONS of clubs as well as intramural sports. If there's a club you want that's not there you can always start your own!

    My time here at Georgia College has been one of the best. They say that it is THE premier school in the state of Georgia in regards to Liberal Arts. I would have to definitely agree.

    Tips for prospective students

    If you are looking for a small campus environment with countless opportunities to do your part, and make your mark on campus and in the community, Georgia College is definitely the place for you! That is spoken from true experience!

    Academic Rigor

    Georgia College is currently the 2nd hardest school to get in to in the state of Georgia, below Georgia Tech. This is for due reason. The curriculum is meant to challenge us and to force us to either change our way of thinking or think analytically about our values and viewpoints. It is also rigorous in order to provide us with the well-rounded education and knowledge that we will need as a future graduate.

    Dorm Life

    In my opinion, dorm living at Georgia College is one of the best that I've seen. From personal experience, living in a dorm provided me with immediate interactions with those around me. It's pretty easy to make friends and quickly adjust to college living when there are activities in place to make the process a whole lot smoother. Also, when you're surrounded my peers who have similar goals to yours, how can one not succeed?

    Food and Dining

    Ok now we all know that too much of anything will get old and redundant really quickly. That is the primary reason for my rating. There are many food options available, whether they be in the dining hall or at the various eateries around campus (i.e. Chic-fila, Subway, etc.). However, after eating the same thing for 3 plus years, of course one will feel the need for something new.

    What to do for fun

    People hear the word Milledgeville and determine that there is NO way there is anything to do for fun. In my experience, it's all about who you hang out with. With that in mind, fun is never too hard to find.

    Bang for the buck

    Georgia College is worth every penny! However, I give 4 stars instead of 5 because with any institution there are those student fees and the like that no one has a particular yearning for.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    One of the big traditions for Georgia College is walking under the pergola. The pergola is a domed archway on campus. The tradition is that as freshmen, we walk under it towards the inner campus, to symbolize us beginning a new chapter in regards to the start of our four years. Upon graduation, as seniors, we walk under it towards the outside world, to symbolize us leaving this chapter behind and being full prepared to take on the world before us.

    Great for these types of students

    Georgia College is great for any student who would like a well-rounded education.

    Clubs and Activities

    There is so much to do on campus that there are no excuses for boredom or idleness. There are countless opportunities to get involved with extracurricular activities and there are also many way to give back through volunteering.

    Greek Life

    As a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., I can honestly say that Greek Life on campus is great. Though there are 18 different fraternities and sororities total, we all work together with the same aim to give back to both our university and surrounding community.

    Campus Safety

    I give this rating because I believe that we have one the best campuses in regards to campus safety. Public Safety operates around the clock and are quick to respond to emergencies.

    GCSU is one of the best Liberal Arts colleges I have had the pleasure of attending. The campus is beautiful and the faculty and staff is very helpful. I feel very much at home here at GCSU.

    Tips for prospective students

    Prospective students must keep in mind that they should only take on a class load that they can handle. The 15 hour amount that is most common, is not what is required.

    Academic Rigor

    By having a good mix of fun classes and serious classes, a good GPA can be maintained.

    Dorm Life

    The dorms are clean and extremely safe.

    Food and Dining

    The food is not very good quality, but you do get a lot of food, and that can sometimes make up for the quality.

    What to do for fun

    Downtown Milledgeville has a small but lively nightlife and there are always events happening on campus.

    Very popular!

    The campus is very appealing and adds to the charm of the school. Most of the teachers are nice and easy to deal with. Classes are hard, but they are there to teach, so it is well worth it!

    Tips for prospective students

    Keep up with your work, and only take the amount of hours that you can handle. If you know you are bad in one subject, then don't take all of the classes you need to fulfill that requirement in one semester, spread them out. Enjoy your time in college, but know that you are there to learn.

    Academic Rigor

    As I said before college is there to be challenging, and this one is no different. The classes are very challenging, depending if you are strong in that subject or not. Even in my major, I am finding the classes to be very challenging. The classes are challenging, but they challenge you for a reason. They help to expand your brain, and you learn a lot!

    Dorm Life

    The dorms need thicker walls. You can hear anything and everything in the rooms around you. On the other hand, they are a great way to meet people and be close with others without having to live with them.

    Food and Dining

    The food isn't that bad really. In the Max they usually have the same things though. So if I was to recommend something to change I would say to offer more options through out the week.

    What to do for fun

    What to do for fun depends on what you are interested in, many like to go down town on Thursday nights. I personally enjoy going to Starbucks and hanging out with friends. The gym is also a very healthy option when trying to find something to do.

    Bang for the buck

    College is expensive. Georgia College and State University is no exception, but it is better than some of the other schools offered in the state. The fact that if you have a meal plan, that they put money on your bobcat card helps a lot.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    There is an eco spot in front of Russel Hall. It is pretty cool, and I wouldn't have known about it if no one told me.

    Great for these types of students

    Georgia College and State is a very accepting school. We are a liberal Arts school, and encourage diversity. I am not diverse myself, but I enjoy activities that some have never tried and enjoy hearing about other students perspectives.

    Clubs and Activities

    There are a wide range of activities offered! Anything from a foreign language group to outdoor sports groups. If what you would like is not offered, then a new club can be started up!

    Greek Life

    I personally did not rush. What I hear from those in sororities and fraternities ranges from very bad to pretty good and rewarding. After attending GCSU for a year, I would like to have the connections that a sorority offers, but I am still glad that I didn't rush. It is not for everyone.

    Campus Safety

    Our campus was rated the safest in the state. Which is a big honor. I never once felt threatened when I was walking around campus, even if it was night and I was walking by myself to the Max.

    They have smaller classrooms. The teachers are more one on one with the students. The campus is beautiful.

    Tips for prospective students

    Make sure you become friends with your teachers and your adviser because you will need them.

    georgia college & state university is a small university with moderate class sizes, and great teachers. it's located in a small town with an environment that only includes the college attendants. the school has many pros, and a few cons especially if you are a minority.

    What to do for fun

    milledgeville has limited offerings as far as doing stuff for fun so a lot of people go home on the weeekend. yet the school is working on supplying different events to give students something to do. they have hot events, and other programs. a lot of people that stay on campus go downtown, frat parties, have movie nights in their rooms, go bowling, skating, and a few other options. its all in what you make it.

    georgia college is both beautiful, and a good school, but some things, like dining, is too expensive and not that tasty. it also can overprice other stuff or the price just not be worth what they offer.

    it is unusual that georgia college does not have a football team, but one of our traditions since we don't have a football team is to have homecoming in february with a basketball game. as far as locations, we have the west campus which is up and coming, but is a little off campus. some look at it as a good thing but others don't see it as a good thing.

    gcsu is a wonderful college. there are many majors and majors to choose. there are also many clubs, organizations, sororities, and fraternities to join.

    Tips for prospective students

    please take advantage of the free tutoring service. instead of printing out notes (i.e. handouts and power point slides), write down all the notes. this helps you understand it better. join at least one club or organization, so you can make friends, go on trips, and learn new things. do not take too many electives. finish your core before taking any electives.

    Academic Rigor

    some classes are easy. other classes are hard. many professors are nice enough to help students when needed. there are professors who take attendance as well as professors who do not. the professors who take attendance will allow 3 or 4 absences and grade reductions for each subsequent absence.

    in the dorms, all the furniture and utilities are provided. you just need your college stuff, linens, and a mini-refrigerator and microwave to prepare your meals. there is a policy of no alcohol under 21. yes, ids will be checked! also, there are quiet hours at night, meaning no noise is allowed at night. the only pets allowed are fish in a 10-gallon tank. no other pets are allowed! anytime residents have a problem, there are resident assistants (ras) to help out. if you would like an apartment style housing, there are on-campus apartments called the village. the same policies discussed in this section are used there. all freshmen have to live on campus (either the dorms or village apartments). after that, they can live in anywhere on or off campus.

    Food and Dining

    most of the food in the dining hall is good. some of the food is not. the original dining hall has been remodeled into a huge dining hall with many different stations to choose from. there is everything from fast food to international foods to desserts. on the weekends, there is a yummy omelet bar. some delicious meals are polenta and thai green curry. the university has coffee shops and restaurants for very affordable prices-do not miss it! you can get a pizza, cappuccino, or calzone- all here on campus!!!

    Tips for prospective students

    come to college with an open mind, because there are many new opportunities that await you!

    Academic Rigor

    the classes range from easy to difficult, but it depends on the student. what is easy for one student may be difficult for another. but this school has very helpful professors that will assist you to do well in their classes.

    Dorm Life

    i live in west campus (the village) so i'm off campus, but i still feel involved because we are all in one building and it's easy to visit your friends on another floor or just down the hall. another advantage is that it's also a bit quieter because you can shut your door, whereas dorm people share a room.

    Food and Dining

    the dining hall food isn't too bad for college food. there are some things that aren't too great, but overall it's pretty good.

    the college is superb in terms of student to teacher ratio. the most one has to walk to get to class is ten to fifteen minutes. the dorms are a great way to meet people but can be quite noisy.

    Tips for prospective students

    make sure you have extracurriculars and community service hours logged before applying. i recommend the school to everyone.

    Academic Rigor

    some classes require more than others. most classes will require quite a bit of outside reading.

    Dorm Life

    i've met some really great friends in the dorm, but they can be real irritating on the weekends if you don't party like everyone else. it's nearly impossible to get a good night's sleep on most thursdays, fridays and saturdays. of course, it may not be the same in every dorm.

    Food and Dining

    the max dinging hall offers many choices, but they tire easily. it seems like they rotate the same foods each week on different days. world of wings in sanford hall is my favorite, though it is pricey. chick fil a does not have the greatest quality food or service. books and brew in the library has the best workers in the entire campus. they have awesome smoothies, too.

    What to do for fun

    most enjoy going downtown to party at capital. however, i am not into those sorts of things, so i mainly hang out in the dorms on those nights and have movie nights with friends. the movie theatre has great prices in the afternoon, but it is very small. haven't tried the bowling alley yet, but i hear they have specials.

    Clubs and Activities

    georgia college definitely takes advantage of sidewalk chalk to advertise new and exciting clubs and their activities. almost every night of the week there is something going on for people to do.

    Greek Life

    greek life is very popular at gc&su. my suitemates are in a sorority (zta) together and absolutely love it. the greek life here is actually pretty popular, but one doesn't feel left out if they aren't involved.

    Campus Safety

    currently, georgia college is the safest campus in georgia. it was just recently voted on. the campus security have blue light help buttons set up along the sidewalks by the dorms and the main campus. it directly patches you through to 911 officers. we also have a golf kart service called snap. they run almost every night from around eight at night to three in the morning. you call and let them know where you would like to be picked up and they'll take you to your destination safely.

    GCSU has incredible professors who know what they are teaching and care about the students in their classes. The college is small enough to know most of the people you pass by during the day, yet large enough to continue meeting new students. Overall, Georgia College is diverse, fun, and full of smart young adults.

    Tips for prospective students

    Talk to your professors and the students in your classes. Do not be afraid; it is difficult to attend here and keep your grades up, but if you do you will never regret it.

    What to do for fun

    Play intramural sports, go downtown to party or just hang out, throw the frisbee on front campus, attend basketball games, and most importantly meet awesome people.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    Most students and professors believe it is bad luck to step on the bobcat face located on the front campus, and usually skirt around it.

    I have already learned so much while attending GA College. I have only completed 17 hours, as I am in my freshman year, but I am amazed at how rigorous the classes have been. Though they have been difficult and have required much work, I have been more than satisfied with the standards they set for students and the teachers they give to help all the students achieve their best.

    Am enjoying being here

    I am so excited to be a part of GA College. The size of the student body is perfect for me; it is big enough to feel like a large college, but small enough that I pass people I know in the cafeteria or on the way to class every day. The campus is beautiful, the dorms have been great, and I love the historic feel of the small town. The school really went all out to make sure students could feel accepted and involved- I have done so many activities outside of classes that have helped me meet other students. I am a part of the Salsa and Swing Dancing clubs, and enjoy going to various churches, acoustic nights, and all kinds of other events on campus! Georgia College has been a blast!

    Bang for the buck

    The two programs that I have gotten the most feedback on are the Nursing and Education programs. Apparently this college is VERY serious about giving students quality schooling and LOTS of field time- for example, I am a freshman education student and have already begun taking classes relative to my major and have gotten 15 hours of experience in a local elementary classroom. This school is definitely worth the time and money required to attend it.

    Tips for prospective students

    If you can, do not take the College Algebra course unless you are fully confident in your algebra skills. This course is mainly done online (there are teachers, but you only get them one hour a week and they do not teach you every section in the book). I made an A in the course, so it can definitely be done- but it was extremely and unnecessarily difficult.

    Great for these types of students

    As said earlier, the best two programs the college has to offer are its nursing and education students. Highly recommended programs!

    I live in a dorm, (oh excuse me, residence hall) and I really like it. The campus is just the right size, not too big, not too small. You can walk anywhere you want to go, and if you can't walk there, there is a shuttle bus that runs all day, all week. The key is to do more than sit in your room all day; the more people you meet, the happier you will be!

    GCSU really does have a great value for it's price. They just opened a brand new, huge, high-tech wellness center, the student lounge is so nice, and all of the faculty are really focused on teaching you as much as possible. There are so many programs and services available for the students, and most of them are free! But what you do pay for--meal plan, housing, and tuition--GCSU has some of the best prices.

    Tips for prospective students

    Get involved! If you choose to come here, you must must must get out of the dorms and go do stuff, whether it be the club downtown, or being involved with any of the student organizations. You will be much happier if you go out and meet people.

    Almost all of the teachers are wonderful! Most teachers design the class to allow you to learn, instead of worry about the grades. I thought college was going to be just sit in a classroom and listen to the lectures, but GCSU has small class sizes so you can be comfortable having a conversation with your teacher and classmates.

    Not only is everyone extremely intellectual and friendly here, Southern courtesy prevails. This may be a little irrelevant, but if you're going into a building or classroom doors are held. Everyone is polite and respects each other so much.
    There's something here for everyone! With all the friends you meet being on such a small campus you can't help but to run into people everywhere you go, including night-life. We like to say, Everyone's famous in Milly!

    Bang for the buck

    If you have HOPE scholarship, anything will be a bang for your 90-100% free tuition, but GCSU especially. With HOPE, pretty much the only thing you pay for is housing and freshmen MUST live in dorms, which is great! Living in the dorms freshmen year is the best because you get to know everyone on your hall, in your building, and a ton of people in the other dorms too!
    The classes are wonderful since most of them are pretty small (30 people or so unless it's biology) so you really feel like a person, not just a desk. Because there's not 400 people waiting for the next note to write down, you do not feel like you're wasting everyone's time asking questions or taking the class on a tangent.
    There are also so many facilities to help you get the best grades you possibly can. All of the faculty is helpful and willing to work with you if you're willing to work with them. Never feel afraid when taking a test to say to your teacher I just don't know the answer to this question, what can you do to help me on it?. They will work with you the best they can to get you to the answer!

    Tips for prospective students

    My Number One tip for prospective students, especially at GCSU, try EVERYTHING! GCSU is really big on students getting involved and they make it so very easy. Getting involved not only looks better to your teachers and the other staff around you, it also may help you while applying for a major. Most importantly, getting involved makes making friends and getting to know the school extremely easy!

    First of all, the class sizes are amazing and really give each student a chance to get to know their professor. This being said, even the classes that you would think are the most boring are still interesting and full of information. For example, I had a MWF class at 9am last semester with an older gentleman for a professor. All he did was come to class and talk with barely any notes, about History even! This was honestly one of the most fulfilling classes I've ever had. And somehow the information you learn in one class seems to come up in other classes a lot, which is definitely a plus!

    Am enjoying being here

    If I could rate this school higher than 5-stars, I would! It is such a small town, family environment, which most of us appreciate. There is always something going on for everyone. Even if you are not into the partying aspect of college, you actually have a hard time running into that stuff! It's kept completely separate and off campus. When you first think of Milledgeville, you almost think 'Where even is that?' but that is the best part. Everyone who has ever come to visit left wanting to stay longer! It's awesome!

    Bang for the buck

    MAKE SURE you do not lose your Hope Scholarship. And as a freshman, please stay focused to keep it. GCSU is the third hardest school academically in Georgia, so just because it is small, doesn't mean it is easy. It isn't the most expensive school, but you want all the help you can get. Even if you don't have Hope, don't hesitate to look at the scholarships and financial aid offered because they will definitely help! And even though the dorms may seem expensive, the student housing around the area is about the same. Just remember, EVERYONE has loans, so don't let the price of school stop you from coming.

    Tips for prospective students

    STUDY. I'm serious. It is hard coming in from high school and being responsible enough to take care of yourself and go to school, and maybe even work. But, just balance your schedule out and always make time for homework. Education aside, it is a great environment to live in. Everyone on campus is super nice, especially the staff and they will help you in any way they can! PICK OUR SCHOOL! You won't regret it. I have a friend who went here the first two years and then transferred to UGA. The only reason she is staying there is for her more specific major, but she misses the family at GCSU.

    The classes have been great so far. I've been in a class as small as 15, and a class as big as 80, but on average, they tend to be around 25-30; it's like being in high school. Even in the bigger classes, it doesn't feel big. The professors are great, and very available and eager to help. Although I'm taking classes in subject that don't particularly interest me, I'm glad I chose a liberal arts school; I think it's good to at least be familiar with all disciplines.

    First semester was rough, but I think I would have had a hard time regardless of the school. There is always something to do; whether it's an activity that is being hosted by your dorm, or the Campus Activities Board, you always have options. The campus is easy to navigate, and I never have to walk more than 10 minutes to get to class. It's a very welcoming atmosphere, and the campus is beautiful.

    People like to complain about the food, but I don't understand why. Sure, it's not as good as your mom's homemade meals, but for cafeteria food, it's not bad at all. The dorms are VERY nice; I never really appreciated them until I visited friends at other schools. There are countless free services, from the courtesy golf cart rides to the International Library Loan system at the library.

    Tips for prospective students

    I was terrified to leave my family. I went to a small, private school where I had known everyone since elementary school, and the idea of having to go to college and make new friends was paralyzing. The good news: everyone else felt the same way. It's a big change and definitely takes some adjustment, but you're all in the same boat. It's easy to forget that you're here to learn, and it's very important to balance your social life with academics. My parents told me this a million times, but it took my own mistakes to actually teach me this lesson. Rule number one: go to class. I did all of my homework and got high Bs on my math tests last semester and ended up getting a C in the class because I skipped class and missed a test. Save skipping class for the days when you're sick or have to go out of town. Your professors couldn't care less about your attending; you're here for you. They aren't going to check up on you like they did in high school.

    If you're looking for a small--but not too small--school, GCSU is a great fit. I recognize people every day, even though I might not know them.

    GC&SU is way more different than high school. Walking to class, you'll see so many people smile at you, people you don't even know, and it really makes you feel good.

    Being at one of the top schools in Georgia isn't cheap. It's pretty expensive, but the college offered tons of scholarships and financial aid that really helped me out. The expense is totally worth it. Great classes, great teachers, great people and all in a beautiful environment.

    Tips for prospective students

    The only thing I see in my life and the lives of my friends is that you tend to miss home a little. Yes, when you first think of going away you get all excited because you are out on your own and don't have to live with your parents anymore, but it becomes bittersweet. I find myself going home all the time because I miss my best friend or my boyfriend. Luckily for me I only live an hour away, but I know people who lives 2 to 3 hours away and still make the drive. On the weekend, it's just nice to take a break and chill at home, and believe it or not you WILL grow closer to your parents. You'll find that you love them even more while your away and you don't find them as annoying when you come back :)

    Great for these types of students

    Honestly, GC&SU is for great for everyone! There's ways everyone can get involved in. From all kinds of intramural sports to sororities, from clubs to concerts, there are tons of ways to fit in. It's even great for those who don't want to be outgoing and involved. GC&SU tends to everyone's needs, really. The only people it's not for is the ones who don't want to be successful and push themselves. You have to keep on keeping on here. This college is legit.

    Tips for prospective students

    My advice to prospective students is that you apply for the early admission. This requires that you take the SAT early as well, which is very helpful when you are applying for scholarships and such. If you apply early, that also makes your waiting time to find out if you've gotten in a lot less stressful. If you don't apply early, though, that is alright as long as you apply as soon as possible. The earlier you apply, the more of a chance you have to get in.

    This university is great for students who love being surrounded by beautiful scenery and wonderful people. It is a small school so our classes are more intimate and easier to understand because our professors don't have 300 students they have to worry about. If you like a small school with many class choices, this is the school for you. They also have a long list of majors and minors so whatever combination you like, you can get. Overall, this is a fantastic university and the minute I heard about it and looked at the website, I knew I was going to attend! You'll love it!!
