Valdosta State University Top Questions

There is nothing horrible about Valdosta State, but I wil say that the food could be a little better in the dining hall.

I love Valdosta State University. All of the staff members are very helpful. I have yet to find a complaint about the university.

The hummidity.

Dont get me wrong, I love my school! However, the town sourrounding the school is very boring, and there isnt much to do. The town of Valdosta is very small, and some will even call it the country. If a prospective students can get past the fact that the town of Valdosta is fairly slow, I'm sure they will love the school! There is lots for students to do on campus, and other students are constantly hosting parties, get togethers, etc.

The Student- Teacher involvement. I feel if students and teachers were more involved with student's, student's can do a lot better, academically. If the teacher's don't care, the studen't don't care either. I've experienced a teacher who didn't like answering questions in class. Yet, when you try to talk to him after class, he gives such a negative response, you don't ever want to ask him anything ever again. If I pay so much money to get my education, I deserve a teacher who cares about the education we are receiving.

The worst thing I consider to be about my school is second hand smoke and the lack of many smoking sections. Student smokers are allowed to smoke any and everywhere with few restrictions. This is harmful to non-smokers and VSU chooses to do nothing about it. You could be walking to class, the dining hall, or to the recreation center and a trail of tobacco smoke is forced into your nostrils. Now I know that there will always be smokers but the fact that they're allowed to smoke just about anywhere ticks me off.

The campus is very small and classes fill up very quickly, so during registration it is hard to get the classes you want.

the limit housing because upperclassmen have barely any housing

The financial aid department is no the best thing at Valdosta State University. Some of the people in the office can come off rude and it seems like the options are not beneficial for the students sake. The options can have short deadlines and seem impossible to make.

It is hard for me to say because I am attending online classes only. People I have spoken with love the schoo.

I would have to say the worst thing about Valdosta State University would be the bookstore prices. Books prices are absolutely ridiculous, and when you sell them back you get close to nothing. It's very frustrating to pay tuition and fees and then have to go buy $500 or $600 worth of books on top of that.

There is nothing that I have come across that I am not happy with at Valdosta State University. If I had to pick anything it would be I wish the distance from my hometown was shorter. When I go home for the weekend it feels as if I am driving for the most part of it.

The worst thing about this school is the possible lack of quality depending on the class. My first schedule, set up by a faculty member trying to get me out of the room as quick as possible, had a pre-calculus class I had already taken in high school. I went to this class maybe twice and was talked to like a middle schooler. There is one other class I have experienced this lack of quality but many have been just fine.

The unavailability of assistance with helpful information.

I cannot find anything wrong with my school. There is a wonderful staff that devote many hours to helping students in many areas of need. The campus is beautiful with warm weather nearly year round. It also has many competitive sports teams that often do extremely well and are highly ranked in the state.

Right now there is alot of construction going on. But once it is through it will only make the campus more beautiful.

The worst thing about my school would be the fact that there is still racial segregation to some extent! I feel like now in this era we should be unified instead of departed. I think this is the worst thing because I'm not use to just hanging out with a certain race of people. I'm to meeting different people, cultures, backgrounds and it doesn't matter where that person come from. I feel like different cultures and races are a beautiful thing and we should be open to learning new things instead of living in the past.

The way that they refund money. If a student needs a refund it isn't as easy to get as paying money for the school.

The worst thing about my school is sometimes, it can be clique-ish. I mainly thing it is within the freshmen body, since people are just trying to find somewhere to fit in.

I'm an art education major and art classes fill up too quickly. I may have to stay longer because of this. Join honors so you can sign up with seniors and get first-choice on classes!!!
