Georgia State University Top Questions

I love that it's in Atlanta! There is so much diversity and so much going on. Not only does the school offer so much to do, the city itself always has something exciting going on. Between the two, I can always find a good coffee shop, a lovely art show, or a talent filled concert! I know that Atlanta is a big and busy city, but there are so many parks all over and around campus that deliver the feeling of being close to nature.

I don't brag much about anything at my school. If I could do it over I'd suck it up and go to my first choice regardless of monetary funds. One thing I do love about my school is our movie theater. It's free for students with a gsu id and pretty cheap for guests.

Not technically bragging, but if asked, I tell them I go to Georgia State University.

I tell them we have a surprisingly good Business school. The business school is very strong, and it gives students a great foundation for getting jobs straight out of college. In addition to this, it gives plenty of opportunities to contact businesses in the area for internships and real-life information about the different fields one could work in. Overall, my school provides fantastic opportunities for one to get their life started right after one graduates.

I never cared for a "traditional" college experience, and Georgia State was the solution. I encourage friends to go to State when they graduate especially because we are on the rise. Our football team starts next year, and our mascot Pounce is everywhere now-a-days. Classes are a challenge but if you do what you need to you are sure to succeed. Georgia State was made for commuters and life as a student in the city offers many possibilites. I don't go to a traditional college, but the experience I'm given exceeds that standard.

The Cello Professor here at Georgia State, Martha Gerschefski, is what I brag about. I simply couldn't ask for a better teacher for my major. She was Associate Principal Cello in the National Symphony Orchestra under Leopold Stokowski. On top of tours through Europe and the Americas, she is an awesome teacher (ASTA Teacher of the Year 1999-2000) and an awesome person.

How it is right in the heart of Atlanta. There are so many different places to go. You are very protected with the high security standards but are able to go anywhere and everywhere if you please to do so.

The progress and changes I've made since my freshaman year.

I absolutely love the fact that my campus is in the heart of Atlanta. We have so many opportunities at GSU such as internships with CNN, Coca Cola, Turner Broadcasting, ect. and not to mention we park at Turner Field, home of the Braves! The faculty and staff are absolutely amazing. My teachers really know their stuff, and they make class something to look forward too. Several of my teachers have brought guest speakers from major newspapers to famous authors to talk about their careers. The campus is always alive with people and new things to see. I love GSU!

I mention all the events that go on around campus.

Either my classes or my program. I have great professors as well and I also think the library is phenomenal compared to other ones I have been in. It's perfect for my area of study with real hands-on faculty and staff. All of my classes, whether directly related to my program or not, have been worth taking and I have left the classes satisfied.

how large it is

I brag about the Professors in the Sociology Department at Georgia State. They are amazing, always willing to help, review papers, and give advice!

Georgia State is student friendly and extremely diverse. We are constantly growing with new buildings and residence halls. I also love my schools academic staff and dedicated administration. I know most of the staff in my department. I never feel like a number. My academic consolers and professors are always willing to listen and assist. I am especially satisfied with our technology: student email, multiple media labs, access i.d. cards, as well as state of the art equipment for our art gallery and visual art majors. All my friends and family know that I love Georgia State.

the diverse population of students, the urban location, and the quality education I received!!!

I do not brag about my school

I brag most about our dorms. The Georgia State Universtity Commons are amazing. They were just built in the 2007 so they are pretty new, and its like we have our own apartment. Each student has their own room that can lock, there is pretty good security and overall it's just a nice place. And if you're lucky, you get a great view.

That it has great teachers and is a wonderful school for Education majors.

When I discuss my school, I brag most about how big it is and the quality of the school. Everything seems to be kept well and clean.

I don't brag about this school at all. I chose this school , because I thought it was a good choice for a non-traditional student with a disability. Sadly, the there are many problems swept under the rug. The school is so departmentalized that problems abound and nobody cares about their job to fix them. I completed two study abroads at Sorbonne and was treated with respect. They were also very professional. GSU could learn a lot from Sorbonne.
