Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Nursing  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Bright I'm a 3rd year transfer student. The school overall is great. The nursing program, however, is highly competitive to get into. The avg GPA to get in is a 3.8. I do not live on campus, only freshman do. Most others just live "off" campus. The meal plans could be better considering you're paying so much for them. If you don't use them all by the end of the week you loose them. SUCKS. There are so many clubs to get involved with on campus and theres greek life, so the options are definitely there if you want to be involved. There are lots of opportunites to get on campus jobs as well. Georgia southern is a very nice school, in the middle of no where, but it's a typical college town so what else do you expect? There are parties every weekend but in my opinion, no ones forcing you to go to party every weekend. If you feel like going out, go out. If not stay in. Simple. I don't go out much and heavily involved on campus. Beautiful campus, great school GEOOOOOOOOOOORGIA!!!!!!!!!SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUTHERN!!!!!!!

With the HOPE Scholarship in GA, this place like any other school in this state, has explded. So there have been some growing pains. However, there are some beautiful new facilities to accomodate this. I feel this is a quality education and pretty challenging. Football and band is fun. There's partying like any other school, but the rigor of coursework forces you to curtail your partying or you won't last. So the reputation of GSU as a party school is outdated. I do have some negative observations: the meal plan sucks! If you don't use your paid for meals at the end of the week, you lose them! Why is that? It should be at the end of the semester! Dining services is one area that needs a total plan overhaul & there needs to be more full-services places on this large campus. For what yuou get, it's very expensive compared to similar schools. Also, housing is not only expensive comparatively speaking. Also, you are not guaranteed housing after your freshman year and are likely to lose if after your first year. This forces students into local rental houses. Lots of students get their parents to buy these houses for their kids & roomates, then they have to try and flip them after graduation or become absentee slumlords. You have to get involed to get involved in something on campus, but there's plenty of stuff. If you don't, the campus is in the middle of nowhere and many fall prey to driving to Svannah for the beach or bars. Beware...many have paid dearly for that. Campus employment is great.

The really act like they dont know what their doing, it's sad. A person want to attend a college that is confident in what they do and teach. I would not recoment South University to my DOG.
