I enjoyed my time spent at HU because every experience is only what you make of it; unfortunately every year I wanted to transfer because of the piss poor service from staff members! I did not pay $100,000 for friends, a good time and the complete and utter disrespect displayed by the staff. I paid this money for an education and, as they are EMPLOYEES who represent the University and its "standards of excellence". The school treats you like a child and the only way to get something accomplished is to either scream or threaten to call parents (who may threaten to call an attorney). The purpose of a supposed institute of higher learning is to teach their students to mature and handle their business as adults; the University's practice of ignoring and disrespecting current AND former students (regardless of how recently graduated) sets a HORRIBLE example and is unacceptable. The University then has the nerve to ask students to "give back" financially when they graduate!! As disappointing as it is, because of the horrible way I have been treated during and after my matriculation through Hampton University I am firm in my decision to NOT allow my children to attend my alma mater. Additionally, I feel it is my duty to make every effort to dissuade ALL others from attending this University because it is evident that they will undoubtedly be forced to experience the same disrespect that I have had to.

I would never in my life choose to go to this school again. If you like being oppressed this is the school for you. This school treats you like a child and god forbid you don't have the money to live off campus well there goes your love life. As for the education I can't understand half of my teachers and the other half are so underpaid that they have lost their passion to teach. God forbid if you know where your money is going because they do not make their finances public, the administration is extremely rude. If your gay don't come here they don't take nicely to gays. Ummmm if you have a free spirit in general this is not the school for you, they will expel you for protesting. LOL The experience that I'm getting is total BS and if I wasn't on a full scholarship I would be gone so fast.

Hampton is what you make of it. Campus life is not all that great but it is only one of the seven cities to explore. If you are not the ambitious or adventureous type then you may hate it. As far as academics you learn what you need to. No one is going to push you to do anything you dont want to its truly all on you. Remember it is still college you should first be there to get an education then have fun. Hampton cost too much to play around.
Campus Aesthetics: A+, Social Life: C+

I am a pharmacy major. To all pharmacy majors DO NOT ome to hampton university. the school has almost lost its accreditation. At the beginning of this semester the bookstore did not even have the required textbooks. Weeks later they arrived two of my books were 200 each. The teachers dumb down the work because the students are lazy and cheat. I was surprised to see that even in college students have fist fights in the cafeteria and act as if they are forced to get an education.
