Norfolk State is one of the most spirited HBCUs out there, its alot of proud Spartans despite the schools reputation. Depending on what you are majoring in, its a great learning enviroment. If you are thinking of majoring in Computer Science, Nursing, or Mass Communications it is the school for you. It is not exactly out-of-state friendly so you will need pently of financial aid. The area is not the best place to live in but if you are use to urban areas you should'nt have a problem adjusting.It is what you make it you can either have fun, learn, and make lots of friends or complain about how bad everything is and be miserable. I often said and heard other people say this "Norfolk State University is easy to get into but hard to get out". I think that sums it all up, but if you stay focus you have nothing to worry about.

If you are a student who believes the definition of "Academic Integrity" is just to not be caught cheating, and has a violent temper and likes to lunge or throw items at Professors. Likes to work with damaged or broken equipment (from student disregard or malice), and does not believe that studying is an important part of learning? than NSU is for you!

I am a Nursing student at NSU and I can proudly say that I love my school and enjoy being a Spartan. I feel like coming to NSU is the best choice that i've made in choosing colleges. I would like to start with my program of study. Our Nursing school is the best in the area. While most schools are only regionally accredited, NSU is both regionally and nationally recognized. A lot of nursing students from VSU and HU transfers to NSU's program. Since i've been here the faculty have been nothing but caring to me. wanting for everyone to succeed. the nursing faculty is helpful also. they go out of their way to help. working extra hours and staying past time to help assist with skills that some students may be having trouble in.

There is a lady in the nursing department who wears her " sundays best" with the big flower church hat who seems arrogant at times, sometimes she can be really nice though.

There are a lot of activities, and associations to become involved in including greek organizations and clubs involving one's major.

There are a lot of students who came to school just so they can say they've been to college. a lot dont care but they will care when they get their loan statement.

overall , I am satisfied with my school , the city of norfolk is lovely . Its very urban so if you do not like city type areas then this school will not fit you since it's in the downtown norfolk area, which means there will be higher incidents of crime. My friends who didnt choose nsu but went to vsu, odu vcu or hu regretted it because we have the most spirited campus and is known for the spartan legion marching band. once you're in the spartan community you automatically fall in love.
