My opinion on my school is that it's not something I want to be apart of anymore. As far as academics go I am doing exceptional. Academics have never been a problem for me, but as far as a social aspect I'm experiencing social isolation. There's not enough campus events to have people getting out of their rooms and enjoying college. People are constantly smoking and drinking, which I am not into. I have tried to make friends, but they'll talk to me in the moment and forget about me later. They friendships have never been 50/50. I confide more in my professors than the people here. I am always by myself and things should have changed, but they haven't. There's no football team, so we don't even get to have homecoming around the regular time, we have to have it in February which I've never heard of before. People have shown their true colors to me and I don't like it. I find myself always in my room talking to my friends at home and my family. I want to go home everyday. I am transferring in the spring to go somewhere else closer to home. This school lacks a lot of things. I talked with the provost of our school and he knows that there are problems, but haven't worked towards to fix it. How do you expect people to stay if you don't fix the problems. I have heard many people saying they're going to transfer to another school as well. Even some of the staff have left and are planning to leave. Overall, it's not a good school only for the people who have lived around the Tuscaloosa area or Atlanta. Housing wasn't an issue because everyone got a room, but the condition of the room was nasty. There's marks on the ceiling everything was dirty, the ceiling was crumbling. I wouldn't want my children to stay in a room like that ever. Campus food is repetitive and nasty. We aren't allowed to take anything out of the cafe, all of our food must be eaten in there. Well, what about those days where you don't feel like eating in the cafe and want to eat in your room. Extracurricular activities are limited and they don't have enough things to get people involved on campus. We have a small gym, that only athletes are allowed to use. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone to be honest, they have a lot of things they need to work on.

Stilllman is a great college. The location is great and has multiple options of stores and restaurants in walking distance. There are a lot of fun activities you can get involved in on campus. The band is amazing and very welcoming. Also homecoming is very exciting on campus.

Really like the campus and enjoy the campus life. There is always an event to attend at least three times a week and usually on weekends. The food is amazing ; vegetables, guilty pleasure foods , have all you want cause the cafeteria is actually a buffet. We have included students from other colleges that have shut down and have made them tigers. Though the football team is still in progress, there is a plethora of campus life activities to be involved in , but dont overexert yourself. A very loving, and diverse college with its first ever female president, filled with honor and integrity .

I love my HBCU. College is more than obtaining a degree. The experience I have had over the last 4 years, have mapped me into becoming the person I am today. Stillman College, provides each student the opportunities of a lifetime. If you utilize the resources, in front of you, you have no reason to fail. The student's are set up for nothing but success!

I think I am going to really like it here. I have visited this campus as well as many others, and I chose here because of the location. I thought the campus was very historical looking and old, which made it beautiful to me. The classrooms are small in size, and that is something that I really like. The teachers really get to know the students when the class is small. The hallways were freshly waxed, and the grass is mowed weekly to keep the campus looking sharp. I will be playing softball here and I am honored. The coach was very encouraging to me and made me feel like Stillman was the place for me. Go Tigers!

It’s a good college to attend it have what I want to major in and become in life it also have other majors if I ever change my mind about been a law enforcement the faculty and the student body treat you well if you have any questions or every need a advice you can always call on one of them to help you and they treat you like you one of them

Decieving. Stillman tells you one thing then turns around and does the other. At first someone would love to attend until they actually get here and realize that it was a waste of time. Also, they are unorganized. You move into a dorm just to move out in two days. Next, they tell you they will gift you with scholarship money then sign you up for loans.

When I visited I felt at home, and very welcome.

Stillman is a tight-knit community filled with support and love. The cafeteria food and on-campus housing have room for many improvements. There is no co-ed housing, and only a few people eat in the cafeteria everyday. Classes are small and personal, the professors are always available for their students. The work load is light compared to other colleges, but the material learned is beyond comparison. Stillman College, like any other college, could use some improvement. However, overall, I love my school.
The fall 2020 acceptance rate for Stillman College is 41%. That means, out of _____ applications received in 2020, _____ students were offered admission.
What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
Be prepared to study, and take time out of your social life to get focused , and complete assignments. Doing work on time actually saves the stress and eventually has more time for extra activities that you may be interested. Also make the most out of school.. people say that COLLEGE life is the best time of your life, so enjoy it but get your work done first.
What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?
The worst thing about my school is the lack of funding. I say this because if there were enough funds for the school the departments of college would be able to do more activities with the students.
The best thing about Stillman College is the combination of family and education. Family and education rolled up into one school is important and essential. For only that combination can make four years and a degree last a lifetime.
