This school is a "it is what you make it" school. Coming here without a car is not the best idea unless you have great connections or an adventurous mind in terms of staying on campus and finding stuff to do. The campus itself is very boring. Even though the Student Activities Council finds things for the students to do, it doesn't really make up for the fact that this campus is still boring as heck. And the campus smells really bad on rainy days, cold days, hot days...pretty much every day. If you have really sensitive lungs I would advise you to not go here.

As far as the social life goes..the people here are pretty nice and some what approachable. You pick and choose your friends depending on the type of social life you wish to have. You have the party people, the anime/character people, the people who are friends with everyone, the people who are only friends with their frat/ soror members, etc. I could go on.It just is what it is.

The people here party ALOT! (And throw endless kickbacks) If you are some one who takes your education serious then A. Pick and choose your friends wisely. Don't get me wrong, the parties here are so much fun but if you are someone who likes to take your education serious then your best bet is to of course put that first and the parties aside. They promote like crazy and the parties can be somewhat addicting. You have fun at one..it's like you want to go to all.

Education wise..the level of course work here is not really hard at all depending on your study skills and the type of school you came from. The teachers really care and they have multiple resources for the students in case they need help in a particular subject. This campus is becoming popular by the semester and year so pick and choose wisely. The school is not really hard to get into compared to other surrounding schools but going here is not so bad. You just have to make it worth while and you will end up having fun and coming out with good grades...if all works out that way.

For the most part UWG is a good school. They really care that you understand the material and you actually learn what you will use for the real world. The huge downside to this school is that I like I'm in the projects! There are times that I think a gang shooting could happen at anytime. I don't understand how people with broken, sloppy, and hard to understand english get into this school. I really care about my school work and spend a lot of time studying and there are just too many distractions here for me to stay. Overall feeling of this school would be disappointment.

At first I really liked the campus and the people, however, they have had an influx of really GHETTO people, most of time, except early in the morning, I feel like I am in the projects because people have loud music playing outside their cars, loud people (near screaming) at each other, and people leaving garbage everywhere. The reason I am to westga is because of the small atmosphere and focused students. I hope to transfer to a better college. The school itself is what I wanted such as professors and stuff. I would not recommend this for serious students because the atmosphere is not very good.
