What Students Are Saying

The professors and others are always will to help.
Mark
This is no longer High school. The work does challenge you, but your professors will help you if you need it or to explain something.
Jessica from Charlotte, NC
The basic classes aren't that hard. The rigor truly begins when you start taking classes for your specific major. However, there are multiple tutoring services on-campus and even one right outside of campus.
Najee from Macon, GA
its very good the teachers help you strive for what you need, so if you fail its really your fault because the teachers give you all the resources you need to pass the class.
William from SC
It really depends on the teacher. Do not think that just because a teacher is nice and does not really stress completing work, do not think they forgot. These are the ones that will catch you at the last minute and won't care about failing you.
Jessica from Greenville, SC
I study hard
Shaki from Orangburge, SC
Studies at SCSU is a number one thing. Everyone is in study sessions and the professors are there to help. No one there want to see you fail.
