They make tuition ( The one thing the hope scholarship pays for) cheap to try to put themselves out there as a cheap school but they bill you for every little thing and the dorms are crappy but pricey. Now that i've transferred i realize a lot things that most schools do for free this school charges for and it adds up fast.
Overall 1.2
The administration does not care about the students, only their reputation. I had something very terrible happen to me here and it was swept under the rug by the administration. They even seemed frustrated that i was making a big deal about it. I grew up in Tifton and went here to save money, Tifton folks do not do it to yourself.

This school is the worst. Between studying, nagging your professors to actually grade your work in a timely fashion and dealing with the administration side of things you will have almost no time for clubs or extracurricular activities. Not that it matters though because there are only a few, underfunded student groups on campus.

Things have kinda taken a turn for the worst at ABAC. I don't know what happened but this school is not what it used to be.
Overall 1.3
Tuition is cheap but you get what you pay for, even compared to other junior colleges ABAC is not that good. Don't waste your college years at this school.

I hate stayback
Overall 1.4
Professors and Administration are very unhelpful. It seems like they lack basic empathy for the students. Most professors are underpaid and barely care. Most only upload the syllabus online. I spent two semesters here before moving on to a real school and it feels like I wasted a year of my life.
Overall 1.5
I am going to completely honest. I agree that if you want to major in agriculture or anything of that nature, this school is for you. ABAC's core classes are hard and the teachers don't always help like they should. YOU CANNOT HALF STEP AT THIS SCHOOL. Definitely STAYBACK. You will spend 4 years here just trying to get your Associates. Ive seen it.
Overall 1.7
too small, you either fit in here or not. I dont and hate every day of it.
Overall 1.8
Tuition is cheap for a reason. So many part time professors and no use of online resources. The tutoring center is a joke sometimes. There is little funding for events so nothing really exciting ever happens. They want to "challenge you academically" but this college would be difficult enough if it had a normal curriculum.
