What Students Are Saying

I have had to work very hard in all of my classes to get the grade that I wanted but I have definitely learned a lot and I do not feel like I am doing any pointless work.
Heather from Sanford, NC
The classes can be hard but the outcome is tremendous. Plus the teachers do everything in their power to make sure that you pass their course, because they will work with your schedule so that they can meet with you to help. If you work hard you will succeed, but if you slack off and skip class you will have trouble.
Katherine from Winston-Salem, NC
Some classes are tough; like my chem class. And some are pretty easy; like my lbst class. Many of my classes have everything online, so it is easy to go at your own pace. Physics classes are hard and most people struggle with them.
Lauren from Crown Point, IN
Courses can range from incredibly easy to stupid hard. It all depends on your major and the professor you take. Research your professors before you sign up for courses. If you have an awesome professor, even if the course material is hard to grasp, they will help you to succeed the best they can. I found myself overwhelmed at times by the amount of work present, but I had good professors who were willing to hep me excel in the course. Remember to pace yourself, and you should be able to tackle whatever work a class throws at you.
Joshua from Harrisburg, NC
Study at a steady pace and don't force yourself to try to understand something that you don't. On campus there are graduate students who tutor in all subjects. My main issue was writing papers but if you go to the writing resource center located in Fretwell those tutors will help make sure your paper will definitely get an A.
