APSU is an amazing school for all types of students. I am a non-traditional adult student and have had the best 4 years ever. This school really was the best decision I ever made.

I'm mostly online, to be honest. But, I've been enjoying the opportunity to get my degree all online and the school sends a lot of opportunities via email to participate in.

if yall think that this school isn't amazing for the cost and oppurtunites it offers, try going to some crazy prestigious school where honestly the same things will occur that would here. Just put in effort and you'll do fine.

There’s nothing to do at this school. I’m shocked at how little they follow ADA regulations.
Overall 1.3
This school is absolutely terrible, my husband is military so I have to finish my degree here but would rather not. Their education department is terrible! No one seems to know what they are doing and is not transfer student friendly

Worst school ever. Gave me wrong classes and now Im behind everyone else.

Admin solves Level 1 problems, but avoid APSU if you are out of the ordinary. Repeatedly locked out of my courses on D2L in accelerated semesters. I’ll put in a ticket is code for problem won’t be solved. Science building is a biohazard. Frats on perpetual probation for false accusations. Profs are talking heads. If not first, you’re last.

It's ok.

The reason you come is the nursing program. Otherwise it's cause the school takes the Tennessee Promise. Be very careful if you go for the latter be very, very wary as mine was cancelled due to a mistakenly listed major on APSU's part which cost me three semesters of federal student aid.
