Categories Comments Campus Safety Campus safety is a priority at AUM. We have our own on campus police department that patrols the parking lots and other campus locations. There are also some call posts.
Greek Life AUM offers these Fraternities and Sororities Alpha Gamma Delta Sorority, Delta Zeta Sorority, Zeta Tau Alpha Sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity.
Clubs and Activities There are numerous clubs and organizations at AUM! There are clubs or organizations for almost every major. There are also some organizations that you get paid to be a member of and work for. We also have Greek Life.
Great for these types of students Any!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus There are many traditions at AUM. Weeks of Welcome, AUMfest, AUM Homecoming and Family Weekend, Mardi Gras, Greek Week,Springfest, Shriek Week, and the Harvest Moon Festival. There are many nice, relaxing places to go on campus. From the Confucius Garden, Walking track, Wellness Center, and more. A fun place for students to go hang out is Warhawk Alley on the first floor of The Taylor Center. They have gaming systems, game tables, and lounging space to just go and have fun.
Bang for the buck I think that AUM gives good bang for your buck. We do have some of the lowest in-state tuition fees.
What to do for fun You can go to Theatre AUM, athletic events, the Wellness center, or the shopping centers around town. A fun place for students to go hang out is Warhawk Alley on the first floor of The Taylor Center. They have gaming systems, game tables, and lounging space to just go and have fun.
Food and Dining There are limited options, but the selection that we do have is good. There is also a coffee shop, The AUMazing Bean, that serves Starbucks right across from the Warhawk Shop. In The Nest in Warhawk Hall we have the Warhawk C-Store that has lots of snacks and other foods.
Dorm Life Currently we have four housing communities. The Courtyards, The Commons, and Warhawk Hall. I live in the newest building, Warhawk Hall, it is a lot like a nice hotel. Fully furnished kitchen, private room, free laundry. We are also gaining a new housing building, Capital Place, in the Fall of 2016. The staff in the housing and residence life office are all very nice and helpful if you have any problems. Some people don't like the RAs, but if you don't cause trouble, they won't cause you any trouble. There is also a lounge area in the first and second floors of Warhawk Hall that is open to all housing residents. It features a computer lab, game room with air hockey table and x-box, the C-Store, the Housing Office, a classroom, and a meeting room. A fun fact about Warhawk Hall is that the fifth floor is called The Penthouse, because the ceilings are higher than the ones on the other floors.
Academic Rigor I feel that I am getting a good education here at AUM. There classes can be difficult especially if you are used to high school and just doing enough to get by. That isn't how it is at AUM.
Tips for prospective students Don't be afraid to ask your instructors questions that is what they are there for. Get involved in some organization on campus or you will be bored all the time. I joined a leadership group and it has really helped me make some friends and have fun.
In three sentences It is a smaller university. but doesn't feel like one. There is a lot to do on campus and student involvement is encouraged. Food is less than great, but that's nothing new.

Categories Comments Campus Safety AUM police rides around on there scooters and cars all day. Safety is a guarantee.
Greek Life Greek life is not as important it seems. I wish there were more involvement with greek life.
Clubs and Activities There are many clubs and activities to be involved in. It is really easy to become a part of at least one club on campus
Great for these types of students Determined to learn Social students Students who like smaller crowds
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus There is the warhawk alley which is a lounge room with games and pool tables for students to relax
What to do for fun Going to on campus events such as sports or parties.
Food and Dining The food taste like high school lunch room food. There are not many options. The food is terrible here.
Dorm Life Dorm life is great. The rooms are set up differently in each campus building. There are nicer dorms, and then there are the average dorms. Living on campus allows you to become more involved.
Academic Rigor I feel I am getting a wonderful education here at AUM. The classes will challenge you to work hard but it is all worth it.
Tips for prospective students I recommend getting involved on campus. It will make your college experience a hundred times better. Also, take advantage of all learning/tutoring centers. Its free!
In three sentences I would rate AUM a 7. AUM has a beautiful campus in a safe environment. It is a smaller college which means the classrooms are smaller.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Campus Safety is good. When you leave for night classes there is always a AUM police officer in the parking lot making sure everyone gets to their car safely. I have always felt safe there. There is always a police officer going up and down the parking lot making sure everyone and everything is okay.
Clubs and Activities There are many clubs and activities. Although I don't have time to be involved in them they are great for the younger student.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus There is an unusual amount of cats and squirrels at AUM. The squirrels are not scared of people either and will come right up to your table. There is also unique art pieces and sculptures that were donated to the campus that I love to look at or take pictures of.
Bang for the buck Aum has many research opportunities for students that give you one on one with a professor working uniquely on a project or experiment. There are also many other types of opportunities for students as well.
What to do for fun You can go to AUM Theatre and watch a play or go to the Wellness and fitness center to work out they have a full access gym, pool, rock climbing wall and many other things. Or you can go to starbucks or the AUMazing Bean which is where you'll normally find me. Aum also has many clubs, activities and sports you can be involved in.
Food and Dining The food is pretty good. I like the sushi and the noodle and rice bowls with your choice of meat and vegetables. Could use more of a variety though.
Dorm Life I have never lived in a dorm I live off campus but the dorms look pretty nice.
Academic Rigor Most of the professors at AUM really care about their students and are passionate about teaching and that makes you want to learn.
Tips for prospective students Come at least 15 minutes early for class because parking is sometimes difficult.
In three sentences I love Aum. They have some really amazing and caring professors there whom I will never forget. I feel at home there and love the vibe and people and professors. I have met great friends there and have learned so much from my time there and from my professors.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Safety is a priority for AUM, students are never far from a patrolling campus police car. The campus is well lit for students with late running classes or night time study sessions in the library.
Greek Life Greek life has a presence on campus but not overbearing as I've seen at some Universities during their Rush Week.
Clubs and Activities Since AUM caters to a smaller group the activities and clubs are well organized and engage the students, new and old, to become more active with the University during their educational stay.
Great for these types of students This campus is great for non-traditional students and those continuing education.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus I have not quite had the time to explore the campus thoroughly to find any unusual locations.
Bang for the buck I actually think that AUM offers way more bang for your buck. I receive the diversity and multiculturalism of a huge university, with the reserve and since of home of a smaller campus.
What to do for fun For fun, try to attend the plethora of activities offered throughout the semester, from quaint movie nights to huge sports events.
Food and Dining The food option is the best of both worlds. It is a fusion between health and taste.
Dorm Life I don't live in the dorms
Academic Rigor The professors stress the importance of education and balance, but they do not forget that real life exists.
Tips for prospective students AUM is a great school to become involved in academic and athletic programs. All of their programs are welcoming to incoming students.
In three sentences AUM is the ideal school for continuing students, non-traditional students, as well as first time students. It has a local appeal and a since of community while maintaining the academic advances to compete with the larger Universities. Technologically speaking AUM is, in my opinion, a forerunner in the use of up-to-date equipment and applying it to all aspects of the University.

Categories Comments Campus Safety I feel safe whenever I'm on campus. The AUM campus police patrol the whole campus and are always on staff.
Greek Life Greek life is big here at AUM! Anyone can join a fraternity or sorority!
Clubs and Activities AUM offers many clubs and organizations for students to join! I'm actually a part of four of them myself!
Great for these types of students AUM is great for anyone that wants to be part of a family and for anyone who is ready to get the most out of their education.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Pizza can usually be found for free somewhere on campus. We also have a bagpiper who plays during graduation. The nature trails have a very creepy house on the path that may or may not be haunted.
Bang for the buck AUM is a great education for a reasonable price. I've had nothing but a blast during my time here and I can't wait to see what the future holds for our school.
What to do for fun Getting involved on campus is always fun! AUM also has a brand new wellness center for all students to enjoy, nature trails, and intramural sports. All sporting events are free for students as well. Students can also see plays by Theater AUM for free!
Food and Dining The Roost is a great place to grab a good meal for cheap!
Dorm Life AUM offers many options for housing and all are wonderful. Most notable is the residence hall, lovingly named Warhawk Hall! Warhawk Hall is state of the art and beautiful.
Academic Rigor You will be challenged at AUM but luckily there is a great amount of support on campus for all subjects. Professors care about students and the Warhawk Academic Success Center is open to all comers!
Tips for prospective students Get involved! However you can just meet new people and join any of the numerous organizations on campus! If you can't find one perfect for you then create a new group! That's the beauty of AUM.
In three sentences AUM is the place to be! We are growing constantly and campus is an exciting place to be right now! AUM is a family that loves each other and takes care of each other.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Campus Police is the absolute best. They have helped with everything from walking you to your car after a late class to jumping off your car if your battery dies.
Greek Life Greek life is amazing. A small list of organizations that are making a difference in the community and world one program at a time.
Clubs and Activities Over 60 active organizations that are continuing to develop and improve.
Great for these types of students Great for students who like to lead. There are tons of student leadership opportunities.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Our school colors are orange and black, so we have a very busy October. On campus business offices compete for best decorated or scariest office, and students celebrate Shriek Week. The highlight is a major trip to Six Flags for the Fright Fest.
Bang for the buck People care at AUM. Administration, faculty, staff, and other members of the Warhawk Nation Family will do everything they can to make sure you have the greatest possible experience.
What to do for fun I always say the fun is wherever AUM students are. There are movie theaters,bowling alleys, malls, and tons of eating places within a reasonable distance from the school. There is always something to do on campus as well.
Food and Dining The food is actually really good. We have a Student Government official whose sole responsiblity is carrying student's concerns to the Dining management. We even have a great Starbucks on campus.
Dorm Life There are three amazing residential areas. There are some great changes being made to our Housing and Residence Life that students can only benefit from.
Academic Rigor AUM is definitely one of the most challenging academic institutions in the state of Alabama. Professors are of the highest caliber and expect students to exceed expectations set for campuses in similar size. Writing is a major component of every student's curriculum.
Tips for prospective students Befriend upperclassmen or students who have been at AUM for at least a year. We have invaluable advice about classes, majors, and activities in and around AUM.
In three sentences Auburn University at Montgomery is one of the schools to definitely be looking at these upcoming years. AUM is a great environment for students that is focused on a student-centered experience. One of the greatest things about this school is that students control what happens here; students have the authority to propose changes to most administrative documents including the Strategic Plan and are credited with the implementation of over $60 million worth of renovations and constructions on our gorgeous campus, while also being able to have a great deal of control over student activities.

Greek Life I absolutely love being in Delta Zeta. I would have to agree that it is the best sorority on campus
Bang for the buck Going to school here wasn't as expensive as I had imagined it would be.
What to do for fun There is a ton of stuff to do for fun at AUM. Personally, I joined a sorority and that is how I have most of my fun. The Wellness Center is an awesome place to go swimming and to work out.
Food and Dining The Papa Johns on campus is pretty good and the grilled chicken salads are awesome, but I do not really like the Take 5 sandwich shop in the cafeteria.
Dorm Life AWESOME!!!! As I said earlier, it is convenient, fun, and you meet lots of cool people.
Academic Rigor Some people say that the curriculum at AUM is even harder than the curriculum at Auburn! AUM is a very good school to come to and we also have an awesome nursing program.
Tips for prospective students Living in a dorm is awesome!! It is very convenient and you never have to worrry about always finding a parking spot. Not to mention you meet a ton of new people and you have lots of fun.
In three sentences I knew from the moment that a representative came to my high school from AUM that I wanted to go to college there. I love how AUM has the feel of a large university, but it really isn't that big. I like AUM so much that I may not even transfer to another school.

Food and Dining You can eat something differently each day of the week.
Dorm Life I live in the newest dorm hall, but it feels like a hotel.
Academic Rigor Being a first time study, it was overwhelming, but AUM caters to its students. The resources are plentiful from personal to academic.
Tips for prospective students I highly recommend any student thinking about heading to the main campus start here. AUM will get you to where you want and, more importantly, need to be.
In three sentences AUM is not to big, but definitely not to small. I'm surprised by how much diversity is here. The food is a plus also.

Tips for prospective students This college really feels like high school to me with more work. Go to class and you will be fine.
In three sentences I just transferred here from a large university and so far so good. The classes are small, everyone seems to know everyone, and things are closer together. Only downside is no football team.

Categories Comments Campus Safety There is always security driving and walking the grounds. Along with the emergency call stations located all over campus. Any time these stations are activated it sends an alarm to the nearby campus officer.
Greek Life There are many Greek associations on campus. Enough that i can not name them all. The school holds a Greek week in the quad each semester to present and attract new members.
Clubs and Activities There is no lack of clubs to join. From art and film to trading card games the students and faculty ensure a rich variety of activities. If your bored enough you can always go to Warhawk Alley and play a game of pool or sit down and check out a game for the xbox360.
Great for these types of students AUM has something to offer for almost any type of student. You like art? There are always exhibits on campus. Theater? The Theatre AUM is always running shows. Sports? There is no lack of campus teams or athletic facilities. Its a very diverse school with a lot to offers those who give it the chance.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus There are a lot of art exhibits on campus. One is located on the outer loop of the school its in a pond and is made to flow with the water. It is always changing.
Bang for the buck The food on campus can get expensive but only if you dont know what to order. Asking for a container of meat and vegetables gets you a small container of just that for around three bucks. Instead of the six you pay for a larger portion size plate of the same thing. When your broke its a quick filling meal thats cheap too.
What to do for fun You can go to the wellness center and join a fitness class.There are always activities occurring on the Quad or in the Taylor center. If you want you can catch a play at Theatre AUM. There is also Warhawk alley which holds a pool table and an xbox360 with games you can check out. There are also many clubs affiliated with the school. If anything some of the nearby restaurants such as Flip's and Moe's offer discounted food for AUM students and you can enjoy good food with some friends.
Food and Dining The food is expensive. However the food is good. There is a Starbucks nearby on the campus as well as the roost. In the roost there is several choices you can go for. There is the Chicken, hamburgers, wraps, and almost anything you can think of. No fast food however.
Dorm Life The school offers three different living styles. In the north commons its almost like apartment living. The courtyard is good for families and those who are married. The newest Warhawk alley is a very up-to-date modern facility. All of them offer convenient access to the campus. There are gender restrictions however they are not anything unreasonable. The dorms offer laundry and have commons for the students to meet and hang out.
Academic Rigor It's not an easy school. The classes are challenging, but you will learn. The school has a strict satisfactory academic progress requirement. It is fun but the classes require your attendance and participation. The campus offers tutoring and a learning center for help. You have to complete your work, but the classes are worth the effort.
Tips for prospective students Just ask, no one on the campus will bite, if you think your lost someone is always on campus who can show you the way. Make use of the schools advisers, they are very helpful. Come to one of the schools celebrations on the quad, most of the time its open to the public as well as the student body. Get a feel for the awesome environment that AUM has to offer.
In three sentences This school has a fun and engaging campus lifestyle. From the wellness center to the Quad's endless activities it is never dull. The classes are worth every penny and you will learn to enjoy the diversity of the campus staff.

What to do for fun Join one of the 60+ organizations AUM offers. Also enjoy downtown Montgomery with friends. You can even stay on campus and have fun in the on campus student lounge.
Food and Dining Its great but nothings better then a home cooked meal. They offer great hours for dinning and picking up to go food. They also provide meal plans for students living on or off campus.
Dorm Life Its fun! A very safe place for students to learn. A great place to enjoy yourself.
Academic Rigor Its not the worlds easiest university but Auburn Montgomery provides enough tutor options to help make students successful in their classes. They provide every level of tutoring. They also provide events where professors come out and help.
Tips for prospective students 1. Look for a University that fits your personality but allows room for growth. 2. Make sure you look into every scholarship option available. 3.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Students that care more about education than football games and parties will like this school. There are still parties and clubs of course, but AUM is a bit more lowkey than other schools.
Bang for the buck AUM offers a great education in a smaller setting for a lot cheaper than some bigger schools. You'll be more than just a name or number here as long as you make an effort. Most classes have about 20-30 students. Lectures may have up to 80, but that's still smaller then most schools. Most of the teachers really care about your grades and whether you pass.
What to do for fun After you meet people that you click with, pretty much whatever you want. There's a new wellness center, lots of clubs and organizations. There are two shopping malls really close by, a movie theater, and lots of places to eat out. There is no football team, but there are lots of other sporting events like soccer, tennis, and basketball.
Food and Dining Food can get expensive, but you have $600 on a meal card if you live on campus. Spend it wisely. You can also get a little tired of cafe food pretty quickly, so stock up your fridge.
Dorm Life I voted higher because you can choose a dorm where you can have a private bedroom. There's not always a lot going on, but there's more to do if you reach out and make friends.
Academic Rigor Voted the best school in Montgomery.
Tips for prospective students If you like a small, close-knit environment then this is the school for you. There are lots of activities and plenty of free amenities. Montgomery is really small and quiet, so you may find yourself bored at times. As long as you find a good group of friends you'll probably love it here.
In three sentences AUM is a very small school with lots of friendly people, though most are commuters. Small class size, free laundry, internet and cable, and private bedroom dorms are just a few things to look forward to. It may not have the college feel you would expect, but if you care more about education then it's a good school.

Categories Comments Campus Safety The campus safety could be a lot better. There are about 3 security guards that occasionally roam the parking lots to make sure students are ok. A lot of students have night classes and have to travel across campus by themselves and anything can happen to them during this time period.
Greek Life Greek Life isnt that popular at Auburn University at Montgomery. You have a few sororities and ferternaties but not a lot of people get involved in them.
Great for these types of students Auburn University at Montgomery will be great for students that want an education but don't want to spend that much money on their tuition. Also students that aren't that social and like low key enviorments will enjoy being at this university.
What to do for fun There isn't much to do for fun at Auburn University at Montgomery. The wellness center is the only location where several students would go to have fun.
Food and Dining The food that the cafe offers isn't bad but the school can provide the students with more options. The servers in the cafe are very rude also.
Dorm Life The Dorm life experience is horrible. The dorms have leaks and the RA's are very strict. The only good thing about the dorms is that you can wash your clothes for free.
Academic Rigor The academic requirments are that high at this university. The professors are very leaniant and understanding. If you apply yourself more than likely you can pass all your classes with at least a B.
Tips for prospective students Gaining a personal relationship with your professors will be a tremendous help. Their guidance can assit you in all aspects of learning. It would also be beneficial to find other students that are intreseted in your same major, you guys will be able to work with one another.
In three sentences Auburn University at Montgomery is a great school to attend for freshman students that are trying to live on their own and find themselves. The academic requirements aren't that challenging as long as you apply yourself. The professors and kind and willing to work with you.

Dorm Life My freshman year living on campus started off different for me because I have always lived with my family let alone strangers, but now I enjoy living on campus because it allows me to meet new people and form friendships.

Tips for prospective students If you have a job while going to school here be prepared to get a little overwhelmed at times but just make sure to have a scheduled planned out and stick to it and you'll get through it. Go to class unless its a dire emergency bcuz they don't play about the attendance and you can get kicked out. Have fun of course and join stuff cuz itll keep you from stressin out.
Bang for the buck The dorms are awesome and you would have thought that the 4 bedroom for four people would have been kinda small because of the price but they are surprisingly big and comfy and you definitely get your moneys worth. As for the classes the money is worth it because they are small and personal so the teacher can get to know you and you can ask them for any help.
Am enjoying being here I really enjoy being here and can't wait to actually stay on campus because there are plenty of activities going on that i miss out on. I am getting the college experience I wanted while being at a small campus where it isn't overwhelming.
Am learning a lot I am learning a great deal here and most of the teachers are really understanding.
