Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot I learn a lot because of the variety of students.
Am enjoying being here I enjoy being here because I don't feel like I have to do certain things like party, smoke, and drink just to have a good time. With organizations such as the Baptist Campus Ministry, SGA, the Univeristy Activities Counsel, one does not have to be bored and can have good clean fun.
Bang for the buck This is ultimately a bang for the buck because not only do you get a good education, but compared to other schools this one is cheaper. The campus is also well kept.
Tips for prospective students Troy University is a school with good academics and an impressive staff. The professors try to get to know as many of their students as possible and expect the same effort in return. They are not difficult but expect the students to do their work. Walk into class with an attitude saying that you will make it and try your best instead of trying to float through your courses with minimal effort.
Great for these types of students Troy University is great for students who like small towns, small campuses, and are approachable. If you are someone that don't usually like to speak when spoken to then don't go here because most people speak when you pass them and you don't want a bad impression.

Categories Rating Comments Tips for prospective students Troy University is an extremely social school. The students at Troy University make sure that their peers have a fun college experience. There are FREE movie nights on campus which gives you an opportunity to meet new people. There are always different kinds of events to mingle with other students. The football games are far more exciting than people may realize. Troy has a wide variety of classes to choose from. The academics are NOT all easy. But they are a stepping stone for your future career. I love my University. So if you are coming to Troy be prepared to have tons of fun and a great learning experience.
Great for these types of students If you love a school with a diverse range of people.

Categories Rating Comments Will learn a lot not too many things to distract you from learning but not too boring either.
Will enjoy being here my brother and his friends are here so we will make our own fun
Bang for the buck ok since i got a lot of scholarships. tried shooting for the free ride one at 31 ACT score
Tips for prospective students check around campus for where your classes will be. try making your own map that you will remember. inside pool is much better than the outside one.
Great for these types of students easy going, christian, diligent, homeschoolees.. pretty much almost everybody!

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot I am a proud student of TROY University’s Graduate School Programs offered both on campus and/or through eTroy BlackBoard technology. I have nothing but the utmost respect and appreciation of the kinds of opportunities my TROY University degree provides for me and my family.
Am enjoying being here Love the diversity of the campus. That's what attracted me the most. Students of all races and backgrounds coming together to achieve greatness.
Bang for the buck One of TROY’s greatest attributes is the affordable tuition cost and class sizes. FORBES Magazine & GetEducated.com has named TROY as 'Best Buys.' Professors are courteous, freindly, knowledgeable and have each student’s best interest at heart. They put you 1st in the equation and take a backseat to your success.
Tips for prospective students TROY offers many different degrees online and traditionally; from Associates to Bachelors, Master’s and now finishing with a Terminal Doctorate. The convenience of TROY’s distance learning is 2nd to none. The course work and course syllabus is exactly the same as it would be at TROY’s many brick-and-mortar locations throughout. Also, be sure to become a Lifetime Member of the Alumni Association. You wouldn't believe the benefits!
Great for these types of students I love sports and the ensuing parties! Since joining the TROY family I have become a FANATIC of Trojan athletics. Last college season - although living in SC - I attended every TROY football game and had the time of my life! Although my guys lost some heart breakers, we put-up a very good fight against some pretty good football teams, and then went on to win our bowl game against Ohio U. Troy Baseball is also one to see. This year we almost made it to the Super Regionals before losing to Belmont in the 1st round. TROY University may be dubbed as a mid major university, inside beats the heart of a true Goliath. Come join me and finally realize The Future of Opportunities. See you class… Mark Brunner - eTroy Gard School...

Categories Rating Comments Bang for the buck Troy University has a new saga!
Tips for prospective students Get involved! There are so many activities, events, and groups/clubs to get involved with. I love going to free movie night and I also enjoy going to the BCM. Parking can get really bad! I suggest car-pooling if you want to live off campus or if you live close enough to walk. There is also a shuttle that goes around campus.
Great for these types of students Troy University is great for international students. Troy University is also into ROTC students. Students at Troy University get extremely excited about Trojan football games as well!

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot Most of the classrooms have between 20-25 students to one teacher. The professors try to get to know the students, which makes the environment a little more casual.
Am enjoying being here One of the things I like most about Troy University is that there's something for everyone to do. There are several organizations to join and there is almost always something to do on campus.
Bang for the buck Troy University is kind of cheap as far as tuition and fees go, but I think you get a still get a quality education.
Tips for prospective students Make sure you take a campus visit. I liked Troy from what I saw on their website, but my campus visit really convinced me that this was the school for me.

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot Troy University Montgomery has the best teachers and professors who are willing to work with you and care about your success.
Am enjoying being here This school has many opportunities and activities available to meet the desires and ambitions of students.
Bang for the buck The cost for education is very compatible with other schools and I believe I am getting my money's worth in education as well as experience.
Tips for prospective students The best school for the non-traditional student who has a life outside of school. Schedules are convenient and varied for those with families, jobs and busy lives. You can attend at your own pace with total support for reaching your goals and dreams.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences troy university has a nice campus. the teacher's at the school are willing to help. troy also offers academic help to anyone no matter the subject.
Tips for prospective students i would advise all prospective students to stay on top of deadlines, and also stay in contact with the school to make sure everything has or is processing smoothly.
Academic Rigor troy university is not a hard school if you study. a lot of students feel that coming to college is like high school but that is not that case. troy offers challenging classes not to hurt you, but to make sure that you have studied the material and get you ready for life outside of college.
Dorm Life at troy, i never stayed in the dorm. i had friends who did, so i would visit with them. troy has some really shabby looking dorms, and some really nice upscale apartment style ones. the freshman dorms on this campus really need to be remodeled. underclassmen sometimes get lucky and get one of the better looking dorms.
Food and Dining i stay off campus, but i dine in the cafe, and trojan center sometimes. off campus students are usually not required to buy meal plans, but for the past two years they are required to buy a two hundred dollar one. i didn't agree with this much because i rarely eat on campus, but now that i go on campus more, it is coming in handy. troy offers a big selection of foods from chinese cuisines to subway.
What to do for fun there is not a lot to do for fun in troy, alabama. when there are activities going on they are usually on campus and are held at night. they do however offer activities for each culture. troy has an activities council who is responsible for putting together these things. they recently got together with the local theater to offer one dollar movies to people who attended the university on each first and third wednesday of the month. i feel this is the activity that everyone attends the most.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences troy university provides an affordable, enjoyable college experience to students of all walks of life. with its division one athletics and its prestigious international programs, troy offers great opportunities for social networking and future success. while troy is a public school, it still offers a great community feel where all the students and faculty are striving toward the common goal of preparation and inspiration.
Tips for prospective students i encourage everyone considering troy university to visit the school and start some conversations with some people on campus. it will give you a great feel for the loving community here. before making your decision to attend this university or any, make sure that your choice is efficient. troy offers a great opportunity to succeed in the real world; however, nobody can make the choice of what college to attend for you, and i can merely recommend troy based on my experiences.
Academic Rigor troy offers a wide variety of academic degrees; however, i am not able to speak for all of them. the math and science department is strenuous and challenging, and i would consider it competitive to most public school sin the nation.
Dorm Life there are a wide variety of options available to students and many of them are affordable and enjoyable.
Food and Dining with a brand new dining hall that rates among the biggest in the southeast, troy is not competitive with their food options. with a moe's and boar's head on campus along with a number of other options, finding food is not a problem.
What to do for fun troy has a great location that offers a short drive to montgomery or dothan, alabama, but also offers a number of attractions in the city itself. complete with a cinema, bowling, parks, and more troy won't leave you squirming with boredom.
Bang for the buck troy recently appeared in the forbes magazine for efficiency among american colleges and hold true to their rating. the tuition rates are much lower than surrounding public and private schools alike.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus troy offers one of the largest dining halls in the entire southeast.
Great for these types of students athletes, greeks, and aspiring graduate students all have ample opportunities to excel here. however, any students interested in an international scope would greatly benefit in the troy university system because of its many connections around the globe.
Clubs and Activities troy offers a great variety for the greek-aspiring students as well as independent students that just want to be involved. the university activities council provides great volunteer activities and opportunities for entertainment like ice skating, and dollar movie night to name a few.
Greek Life troy offers a number of fraternities and sororities that are nationally accredited. they play a large role on campus and in the community.
Campus Safety due to its small town feel, troy keeps a pretty safe feel; however, it is a college campus, so trouble can be found if you look hard enough.

Categories Rating Comments Tips for prospective students Troy campus will love to have you. Troy is a very good and academically challenged school. Here at Troy you are expected to do great and to learn how to socialize with others. Troy has an excellent and a sweet staff. The people here at Troy are very helpful and don't mind making you feel nothing but welcomed. My first semester here at Troy was discoverable and interesting. I first was scared my first day here but once one of the nice staff members approached me and made conversation I was relieved. My advice for you is stay determined and come to Troy.
Great for these types of students Students who like to mingle and socialize, students who are determined, and students who loves a academic challenge.

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot Troy University has given me the chance to extend my knowledge in many different fields of interest. The teachers try their hardest to keep each and every student on the right track and make sure they understand. I really enjoy being a student here at Troy University and have learned more in my first semester than I thought I would.
Am enjoying being here I am in love with Troy University. The campus is beautiful and just the right size for me. The people are friendly and I have gotten to know many people in and out of my classes. I am so glad that I decided to become part of the Trojan family!
Bang for the buck Troy University gave me a leadership scholarship, which has not only given me financial aid, but also given me the opportunity to be in the leadership course with many wonderful students and teachers. It is free for all students to enter any home sporting event, as long as the student has their Trojan ID card with them. The meal plan has helped me out tremendously because Troy has many places to eat on campus and being able to pay using my Trojan ID card has been a blessing.
Tips for prospective students Don't get your mind set on one specific school or major. When I first started applying for colleges, I dreamed of attending Auburn University and majoring in physical therapy; however, it worked out for the best for me to be at Troy University and majoring in Athletic Training. So don't beat down on yourself if you don't get exactly what you had in mind. Being at Troy has been an amazing experience and I wouldn't change it for the world.
Great for these types of students Troy University is great for any student majoring in any field. It has many activities on campus as well as a International Student Center. Troy is open to anyone and this school can fit you with the perfect major and organization for you!

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences troy uses the latest technologies to advance understanding their online curriculum. i found the flexibility of the class schedule very appealing. i would recommend troy university to anyone.
Tips for prospective students use a computer with a built-in camera makes it easier at exam time. taking on-line classes requires self discipline to stay on track. but if you work at it, you will succeed.
Academic Rigor the professors are well versed in the current work environment and are able to highlight those things employers are looking for in potential employees.
Dorm Life i attend college from home so i do not know how dorm life would be at troy university.
Food and Dining i attend college from home so i do not know how the dining and food arrangements would be at trot university.
What to do for fun the montgomery communities have a lot to offer. the area is rich with civil rights museums and other historical places. the montgomery campus has a theater program supported by the community.
Bang for the buck the books seem to be a bit costly, without much opportunity for selecting cheaper alternatives. many times i wonder if they are purposefully preventing fair competition with other book stores so they can line their pockets with unfair profits.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus i attend troy university via their on-line school and have not attended an on-campus class.
Great for these types of students self disciplined, self starters and future leaders.
Clubs and Activities i do not attend clubs though i see where troy university has a good network of clubs and school activities.
Greek Life i have no idea what you are asking here.
Campus Safety i have not heard of a single safety related issue in the 6 years i have been in the community.
