This school is a big scam. The people here charge the students for every little thing they do. They have these stupid card machines that will let students withdraw money, but has nothing available so students can deposit money. I was told that students could deposit money. During orientation, all the staff will say that they have all sorts of resources and that everyone knows the answer to everything. That is a big lie because I am a student here, and every single time I call an office for information about something, I get transferred to 3 different offices. And most of the time, I never end up with an answer to the questions I ask. They will make the school sound good during orientation, but in reality it is a school that is only looking forward to getting your money. It is a big SCAM. Do not waist your money here.

The campus is very nice and the staff around campus are very nice but some of the teachers aren't the best at what they do.

One of the most loveliest campuses in the USSA! One of GEORGIA'S finest educational institutions many people in other states are envious of for good reason. Research psychology is just one of the great aspects of this scenic, serene campuses in the state of Georgia. And the view of the city of Atlanta from I-20East is breathtaking!! Thank you for your steadfastedness and dedication to continue offering superior education always conscious of the human factor in your research programs. Kudos to you. I will forever cherish my experience with you. Much success to you.

I personally love most things about West Georgia, from the classes to the campus atmosphere, i just wish more things were open during the weekends.

I'm a graduating senior and I've spent all four years here at West GA. I have to admit that I chose to come here because I couldn't afford to go to the school I actually wanted to go to. West Georgia is decent compared to what I've seen at other universities and what I've been told by friends at other schools. You'll definitely receive a good education as long as you study and do the work. To me the thing that keeps UWG a three star school and not a five star school is the campus culture and Carrollton itself.

I believe that all departments here on campus are blessed with a faculty of brilliant professors. I've done a lot of self exploration here and have tried several different majors and I've never had a professor who didn't love their field and education. Throughout campus we have new facilities and a lot of good equipment available to all students. The tuition and fees are a lot cheaper than many other schools of the same rank and size. Out recreation facilities are awesome and I highly recommend using them. We also have bike lanes and bike rentals so you don't need a car. Also West Ga has one of the prettiest campuses in Georgia if not THE prettiest in GA. I've been all over from Valdosta to Savannah to Georgia Southern to Georgia State and UGA. No school in the state can really compete with West Ga's campus in my opinion.

A lot of the students here chose West Georgia for it's laid back atmosphere and it's party school reputation. As a result I've had to deal with a lot of under performing classmates over the years. Every group project I've worked on has had at least one slacker which was hard for me because I came from a high school with an honors program where everyone cared about the assignment and class in general. At West Ga it appears that a significant portion of the student body mainly care more about parties, hooking up and hanging out than they care about their education.

There is a drug and alcohol culture here on campus and I recommend all freshman take a class called "Personal Wellness" to learn about the dangers drug/alcohol use can have on your mental and emotional health. Weed is the most common thing on campus but there are hard drugs that students use as well including Cocaine and psychedelics like Acid. Drugs and drug users should be avoided; I say this because every person I've met who uses substances have allowed their habit to negatively affect their school work. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. I know a lot of people think smoking weed isn't a big deal but it is. That's all I can say and I know people are going to do it anyway and not listen but you can't say no one ever warned you.

Underage drinking is also really popular here at UWG but to be honest I've never heard of a college where this doesn't happen. It doesn't help that there are several liquor stores within walking distance of campus. Also the bars on the square never pay attention to i.d. Don't do it. Its stupid. Its illegal. Its a waste of money. All your dumb friends who try to pressure you into drinking are dumb and you'd be dumb too to listen to them.

Carrollton itself is a pretty crappy town to be honest. There aren't very many job prospects for students who need to work, I know because I've had several jobs around town and on campus and none of them pay well. If you don't have a car getting around town is very difficult because there is no public transportation, very few taxis and very few sidewalks. All of the apartment complexes in Carrollton are terrible. They are all over priced and not very safe. There is a lot of crime here in Carrollton, which sucks because I chose West Georgia over my other back up schools hoping that a small rural town would be safer than Atlanta.

I commute to UWG- it is a great school. That being said, there are often armed robberies, carjackings, shots fired incidents, etc in the areas close to campus. I would never want to live nearby.

Terrible parking options, campus police are difficult to deal with and wouldn't take me seriously when my car was hit, and constant notifications of armed robberies close to campus

Took my daughter on campus visit day. She wants to be an RN. Lots of new buildings, well equipped labs, all the admissions people i met were wonderful and informative. If you don't want large university or small one, this school is right in the middle. The campus is beautiful with a 24 hour cafeteria that will cook something off the menu for you.

Was in town for a graduation. Very well maintained campus. They were very accommodating and handled traffic very well. Even provided shuttles so folks didn't have to trek up that hill.
