What Students Are Saying

Technology is AMAZING.
Academics are Career Focused
Malcolm from Fayetteville, GA
I mostly took just core while I was there, so I didn't really get into any of the harder classes. I'm also a fine arts major, so I probably wouldn't take the harder stuff, if I'd stayed. Just keep on your toes, I suppose.
Caitlin from Lawrenceville, GA
The professors work with you, you just have to go to them if you need any extra help. Also office hours are offered, this is alone time between you and your professor.

I attained a B.S. from UWG so my experience and comments are limited to that. I gave this category four starts because there's always room for improvement. The academic rigor can be rated as fairly moderate in regards to difficulty. Some programs of course are more rigorous and demanding than others. However, the same concept applies: how bad do you want it? And are you willing to work for what you want? The school offers ample tutoring in varying subjects coupled with ongoing study sessions as well. the professors constantly encourage visits during office hours and make themselves available to you. Use your resources, push yourself, and your goals for academic success will be met.
