I took classes at GSU for two semesters as a DE student during senior year of high school and it was the best. It was good enough to make up for the terrible time of high school I had. Great professors, great facilities, great food, great sense of community, and great people to meet. I really will miss GSU.

Just the worst as an adult going back to school, it was the worst experience! I feel that everything was lacking and it was just the worst 4 months ever! Glad it’s almost over

Don't come this school especially if you are international. This school doesn't have any resources, or networking for students. There is no internship sites and no infrastructure. NO opportunity at all. Faculty are great, but it won't be practically helpful for you to get a job. This place is poor, not safe, only few place to buy food and grocery.
Overall 1.3
Dont go here. It is the worst school ever. The standards here are way too low and it shows in every way. Saving money is not worth compromising your wellbeing.
Overall 1.4
This school is for people who want to drink and party. If you have any academic goals, go somewhere else.

Hate this school
Overall 1.6
This school is racially unmotivated in its efforts to appease minority students. The professor are not on the students side and most but not all do not care if they succeed.
Overall 1.8
Abysmal education quality in many of the classes. Failure rate is at more than 50% and nobody seems to care that many of the higher level math classes have half the class dropping out by midterm. Most of the courses seem rushed and you'll take a lot of irrelevant classes that do nothing to prepare you for further down the line.
