The education and life lessons I receive at FSU were priceless. It is truly a place that gives anyone a chance who is will to work hard.
I chose Fayetteville State because I wanted to be a teacher. I am from Rocky Mount, NC and the teachers and Principals who were thought of as the best in the city and the surrounding area had attended Fayetteville State. I am retired now and I have never regretted my choice. i am thankful for all that my Alma Mater has done for me.
Fayetteville State is an unique school with its own culture and way of doing things. You’ll read different reviews with mixed feelings about this school but what you have to realize that not everyone’s college experience is the same. You could’ve have a bad time while the person beside could’ve had the best time of their life. Ok that’s just called life. You just gotta suck some things up instead of complain and mumble all your life. This is my third year and I can say that I’ve had my ups and downs while attending this school but like one review had said “the life experiences that I got from the school are pricesless.” I didn’t plan on going to FSU at all but now that I’m here I can say that I will never regret that decision. Don’t just listen and read to what other people have to say, go see for yourself.
Because they are in the military town, a lot of military personnels are attending this school. However, some of the class schedules are not that military friendly like Campbell University does. Overall, still good school though.
I've never in my life been around officers who treat others with such disrespect at football games. To begin with the woman at the gate would not even give the little girl with chicken nuggets an explanation as to why she was being forced to throw them away. Then, as a bystander, I witnessed an officer ask a woman with marks on her legs; "what happened to yo legs girl?". That comment clearly made the woman insecure since she said "I know, they look awful.". Also, it cost $3 for popcorn and $5 for nachos which is slightly outrageous. If there was an option for 0 stars that's what I would give this place.
I came in as a transfer student and am in my final year of my bachelors degree. To be honest, most of the instructors are fine. Do I like the college? It's okay, but the staff can be very rude and that may be because I am not African American, like some others note (keep in mind though, there's quite a lot of White, Asian, and Hispanic professors though.) I just really feel like I am bothering someone in their office when I ask questions, which is odd because that's their jobs. My advice, go elsewhere. I am just here til I graduate but I can tell you, there's no way I'd come to this college again.
I Love Fayetteville State Unversity. The staff is so friendly and eager to help you if you have a problem. Thank you FSU
I'm a veteran using my GI Bill, (only relevant for the perspective of fellow vets) anyway, the professors are amazing, they really want their students to succeed and will make themselves available to you, they are very understanding, and the way they teach is easy for their students to grasp information. Keep in mind, this is for serious students who show up everyday and act like they in turn want to learn. I've had a great experience my first semester here as far as my courses are concerned. The cafeteria food is good too. Onto the cons: the traffic enforcement ("police") suck. I took a class at the time of day when the parking lots are for the most part vacant, and I received a ticket for parking in the staff section EVEN THOUGH it was an accident (I didn't see the sign) but also that I was literally just ONE parking spot over from the commuting students. Sheesh. Also, the staff do put holds on your account for a lot of little things, I don't get a rude vibe from the staff but they aren't very helpful at resolving your problems, at the very least slow to solve them.
Im graduating next week and i cant wait! RUN AWAY FROM THIS SCHOOL! ITS NOT THE PROFESSORS, ITS THE STAFF THAT ARE UNPROFESSIONAL, LAZY & RUDE! PARKING SUCKS! THEY PUT HOLDS ON YOUR ACCOUNT FOR EVERYTHING! THEY ARE LIARS! SPEND YOUR FINANCIAL AID SOMEWHERE WORTH IT (NOT HERE)!
good school good food fooooooooooooooood cuming by a 7th grader
Low quality education, disrespectful and unprofessional staff, and overall dirty. I don't think it's a friendly environment for anyone else except African Americans.. I'm in the early college and I would never choose to stay here for the rest of my education because I know I deserve better and there definitely is better out there than Fayetteville state.
