Bowie State University

After making a visit to Bowie, I knew it was the campus for me. The staff and students were warm and welcoming, and it was truly an all-around vibe! The feel of the campus was what I was looking for and the available resources are what I feel with help keep me on track and focused on my goals. I hope to get back into track and working out during my time on campus and I hope to build a student bond with my fellow classmates. Looking forward to the Fall. The only complaint I have because my family likes to plan things out is I wish the offices were timelier with information.

Bowie State is one of the oldest HBCUs; The professors are great, and campus life is amazing. There are several fun activities to participate in on campus. The students are nurturing toward one another, the campus is safe, fun, and exciting. It is a great school to attend.

Bowie State is a very great historical black college that I've seen care about their students. There are so many different events, activities, classes, get togethers every day on campus so there is never a dull moment. Everyone is like family because its always someone that knows someone. We all are their for our own purpose but we all share that Bowie State connection with each other.

Bowie State University (BSU) is more than just a campus; it's a community where students discover themselves amidst like-minded peers. Nestled in a cozy setting, BSU offers an environment where every individual is seen and heard, creating a sense of familiarity and camaraderie. At BSU, enjoyment is woven into the fabric of daily life. Whether through social events, campus activities, or simply gathering on a sunny day, there's always an opportunity to connect and have fun. The small size of the school ensures that you're not just a face in the crowd; here, everyone knows each other's stories, which fosters a supportive and inclusive atmosphere. Friendliness and helpfulness characterize BSU's community spirit. From classmates to faculty members, there's a genuine eagerness to assist with any need that arises. The accessibility of support is a hallmark of BSU's culture, where peers rally around each other and faculty members are readily available to mentor and guide.

Whether you're seeking academic advice, career guidance, or simply a friendly conversation, BSU's faculty and staff are there to lend a helping hand. The dedication to student success is evident across departments, although navigating financial aid may present challenges. In essence, BSU offers more than just an education; it provides a nurturing environment where personal growth is supported by a tight-knit community. From the Fraternities and Sororities, to the band and theatre clubs, here, you'll find not only academic enrichment but also lasting friendships and a sense of belonging that defines the BSU experience.

I think Bowie State, needs to reduce the pressure of tuition on international students struggling without jobs, at least give us the benefit of the doubt and credit us the tuition if anything. Because they would prefer to kick you out of school and out of school means paying your tuition before attending or even selecting classes . In summary let them allow student to build credit with the institution.

My opinion about visiting Bowie State University was very proactive because we've explored the whole campus, and their tour guide showed us why Bowie State University is a great school for transfer students who want to pursue their dreams and goals on how to be successful.

I think it’s a great safe environment. I heard so many good things about this campus it also an Hbcu so it has a lot of black people there which makes everything there positive and safe based off our looks and colors everyone can be friends

My overall opinion about my school/college which is a Bowie State University is that if you’re looking for a HBCU and you live around that area then that is a good school for you to attend. The in state tuition is on one of the cheapest in the whole entire state of Maryland which also gives it a plus when you’re applying for college which it was one of the many reasons I attended this university. But for me in my own personal opinion the professors in my major which is a stem related major or very nonchalant and unempathetic to students or their life problems

Bowie State University is an amazing institution and I highly recommend seniors who are currently in high school to attend and be part of excellence. Bowie State offers many opportunities for students to choose their own pathways to a variety of career choices.

Pretty good school, decent sized campus with plenty of opportunities academically and socially. The location is nice because it's centered within the DC metro area in Bowie, Md. The MARC train is literally a three to five minute walk from the campus. I am having an overall great experience, and I feel academically challenged enough. With the right mindset, any student can attend the campus and thrive while becoming a future professional.

If I\'m being completely honest it wasn\'t my first choice of school when I moved back home but it has grown on me. In order to feel a sense of belonging you should be more sociable or you will feel like the years are just passing you by. The teachers are decent depending on who you sign up for. The meals are edible when you\'re hungry but I\'d advise you learn how to cook or have money to order out.

Bowie State is a great school and has ups and downs but it’s what you make of it at graduation. At college their are plenty of people to befriend and talk too. Since I have my own room I basically love it here! Bowie is like a adult; quiet sometimes but always listening and looking for bright students.

For being my first year at Bowie State I am excited to be at a new school with a new environment. So far Bowie State's advisors have been helping me a lot with transitioning into a new school, really a state since I am an out of state student. I really hope I get all the scholarship money I need so I can focus more on the school and not so much on the money.

I feel like there's a great community amongst the student and staff and everyone has an opportunity to be great.

Bowie state university home of the bulldogs is the best college you could go to although I am a freshman I can say I have wanted to come here since I was in middle school. It is one of the oldest HBCU's and in my opinion the best. IF you plan to attend we expect nothing but success. Go Bulldogs!
