The worst school in all of Atlanta. The way it’s structured is absolutely terrible. It’s not safe, drugs and homeless people all over the place. Their customer support is lacking years behind
I like the campus it's cosmopolitan the students look respectable
I HATE this school . People are rude and the instructors are a joke ! Most of the instructors are so rude and do not care about students at all. They respond to you rudely or don’t return emails. This school is so useless and unorganized . I wish I can transfer out of this school. If I could go back I would not have came here . You have no support and nursing students have to find their own clinical sites. On top of that, it’s mixed in with the homeless . I am afraid I’ll get mugged at times when walking around it does not feel safe. Just not a good school.
School used to be respectable before the new president and board took over. The student population is thrown to the wolves (especially young women). The classes are filled with uninspired professors who are unorganized and disinterested. The administrative staff is rude, childish, combative and unhelpful. The President of GSU is a corporate shill who’s only interest is increasing revenues in ways that only harm the student population. The standards for admissions have dropped precipitously since the new President’s arrival which has bled into the more reckless environment we are seeing at Georgia state. Women are also getting fondled and harassed everyday now. Also the racist security gives preferential treatment to white students while bullying black students.
Literally the worst school I have ever been to. I'm working on a grade appeal right now because of an instructors mistake and that department has literally been of no help. The grade appeal process for that college is very biased against students. It has been a month of me going back and forth with the head of that department because they want a specific word in the grade appeal instead of looking at the facts and documents provide. I understand that there is a lot of other things that are important but this messes with my classes and money I am paying with and isn't fair to me or any other student who needs a grade appeal. If this process was a lot more helpful to me and my issues I won't be stressed right now because of fall classes. I definitely will not be returning to GSU after I finish my degree.
Enjoyed my time here for graduate school. I live outside the city but getting to campus for classes wasn’t too bad. The faculty in the geosciences department are incredible and provided a great education. Campus can be a little sketchy at night but it’s normally full with people so I never felt unsafe.
I rode their shuttle one day and was yelled at because I had my phone on speaker for 3 seconds to listen to the phone call while putting my things down. I have been yelled at for walking into the bathroom of a closed building. Did I know it was closed? No. The staff and faculty of this university is atrocious. I have been at other universities and seeing how much better anywhere else is, GSU is just sad.
Got 2 BAs at GSU. I loved my classes and the diversity. Yes, the campus IS downtown Atlanta. You will walk through the city as you walk across campus. If you do not want to walk through downtown Atl, this is not the school for you. I had two laptops stolen while I was at school, which was horrible, but overall I truly value the academic and life learning I got from attending GSU. I wouldn't have gotten as much out of attending a more closed or suburban/rural campus.
Parents keep giving it good votes because they like how it looks. In reality, the university is poorly run. We loose students so they cancel outdoor classes, serve us crappy food, and make poorly thought out construction decisions. Most of us wouldn't drive so far if it wasn't for the outdoors. Also, the university took a political position. I don't care what anyone else's choice is, it's fine, but a public university should stay unbiased. They took a liberal position. This gets rid of a great number of students considering a lot of outdoorsmen are conservatives or libertarians. They send their news letter to alumni that donate and fund most of the university. The news letter is full of propaganda that would support a liberal opinion and that takes away half of their donations right there. Stay unbiased, keep the outdoor classes, and stop serving food that is just reheated leftovers from last week
