Morgan is a great school. Like all college experiences, what you choose to focus on determines your success. Acadimics of social life? Decide which is more important. All colleges have issues. As long as you stay forced and put in the work, you will find sucess.

The worst school ever

DO NOT COME HERE! very disorganized administration, metal detectors in all the dorms, little to no upperclassmen on campus housing, does not give financial aid, not enough fun clubs and activities, and dangerous area with a lot of violent crimes around campus.

Morgan State is horrible and students should avoid it Period
Overall 1.3
I would not recommend this school. O have a full ride and I am transferring. It is very boring if your not an athlete, SGA or greek, a lot of broken down everything, and food is terrible. Please save yourself and do not come here.
Overall 1.4
As an architecture student, Morgan's undergrad program is rigorous and very demanding. You will have little to no time for a social life. The professors know this and do not sympathize with students. If you miss one day, you can get behind very quickly. As a transfer student, I received 0 help making the transition to a university.
Overall 1.4
As a recent graduate, I would never completely dishonor my Alma Mater. However, this University has a lot of sprucing up to do in every aspect possible. The Morgan pride has definelty depleated and needs internal relations. All in all Morgan is what YOU make it. So don't base your judgement solely off this rating.
Overall 1.6
Morgan is a disappointment.
Overall 1.8
My personal journey at Morgan has been tumultuous. I have developed very excellent friendships and I am extremely grateful for that. However, the administrative team at Morgan is extremely lackluster. Difficulty with staff across all mediums, it is not worth the hassle or the finances that go into the school. 4/10. If you come here come with a plan
Overall 1.8
They always tell you "it is what you make it" but that's really not true. What can you make of something that has little to offer? Before coming to this school I had asked 2 friends what it was like and they were both disappointed and transferred after Fresh. year. I thought "it cant be THAT bad" but I was wrong.
Overall 1.9
The only reason I go to Morgan is because it's cheap. If you want a great college experience I suggest you look somewhere else.
