This is the most inefficient institution in the state of Georgia. I think i've spent 6 plus hours on hold with them trying just to make sure they've received the documents I sent in months ago for admissions(still in processing stage after over a month). It is nearly impossible to get on the phone with them and going into their office only proves their inefficiencies. They're unorganized and their merger with Perimeter College has been nothing but a disaster.

Good professors, best dorms in college (Lofts and Commons), easy achievable high GPA, and simplest college campus. However, this school is a deeply rooted commuter college. Georgia State University is progressively turning into a "traditional" college, but it won't put out until 10+ years. My displeasure experience with this school is the college life. There is not much to do here. Most of the students in class are commuters so it is hard to make friends and to hang out with. Also, a lot of people I've encountered go to GSU for one main reason: To transfer to other school (mainly UGA or GT). So it's hard to make longterm friends. The dining hall is not that great too. It's the same food over and over... Fried chickens and pizzas. So to save your money and hunger, cook your own food. The only dorms that's worth living and investing in are Lofts and Commons. Neither of them require dining plan. One more thing to add... the GSU Registrar's Office and Financial Aid are absolutely terrible. Unlike UGA and GT I've contacted, GSU never responds back emails and you have to be on hold on the phone for at least 40 minutes to get help. Overall, if you want to go to a college with high achievable GPA to transfer to other school, GSU is right for you.
I highly doubt this university has a rating 4 stars and they're just keeping 5 star reviews form eons ago and removing the reviews that don't completely praise the institution. Probably the same case as to why they're not rated on USNEWS. The Financial aid office, Housing, and a couple of other departments are either terribly understaffed or just plain unprofessional. You will rarely get a timely solution or uniformed response from these people; most the staff in advisement are basically a bad joke.
This school is very unorganized as a whole and if I could re-do my choice for undergrad...you get the drift. The saving graces of this school are the professors and organizations/activities for students to participate in on campus. Location is pretty great if you're into the city life but be prepared for the expenses you wouldn't normally face living on a traditional campus.
Also find it funny to mention that there are now some reviews from people who graduated more than a couple years ago but just now decided within the last month to write "glowing" reviews condemning any constructive criticisms? Seems a bit odd. If there are 1-2 star reviews from students, it's because most of us want the problems resolved and want the institution to get better since we are paying numerous fees to get our education here instead of at cheaper alternatives. I don't think that's too expectant to ask.
It is my first year at Georgia State but I love it here. Yes there are some organization problems from time to time but the staff is overall willing to help. My adviser truly cares for each student and puts in the effort to give everyone the best schedule they can get. The school also offers many opportunities for leadership as well as other positions. They offer many scholarships too.
I'm not sure what this school has a phone number for since they never ever pick up! I've been trying transfer in time for the spring semester, calling their school persistently for all of December and the beginning of January and still no one picked up until today of course, after a half an hour of calling and it's too late to transfer. I finally get someone who tells me all of my documentation, transcripts, and application has not been received when I know I submitted it a couple of times. So before I get transferred to admissions I asked him to be honest and tell me am I going to get a voicemail, he says he doesn't know, but of course I end up waiting on the phone for 20- a half an hour again! The workers at the school are useless. Especially those in charge of answering the phone. Absolutely ridiculous. I don't even want to attend this school anymore. Zero stars from me.
Georgia State is ripping college students off. On a payment method plan, they tend to charge you additional 50.00 for setup fee and 12.00 for a service fee charge. They don't allow you to just pay only your tuition, they try to get more and more money out of you.
Great University, have met many progressive individuals who are independent thinkers with intelligence AND common sense. The student body is diverse and representative of the future of American society vs a traditional/non progressive homogeneous college.
Love the basketball team, the constant expansions, and current trajectory that the University is on. Looking forward to more great things from GSU in the near and distant future.
Good luck ever getting in touch with someone. My application has been pending now for almost 3 months and every time that I call you get the same blanket statement regardless of the question.
I graduated from GSU back in the late 80's and I must say they have one of the best business schools in the South. I wouldn't be the successful businessman that I am today if it weren't for the great education I received from the faculty and staff at GSU.
My experience with Georgia State University has been nothing short of piss poor. The organization's Chain-of-Command does not seem to want to get students in, from my perspective. I been patiently going through the process only to be left in the dark on a status that still says: Pending...yet, upon calling around for hours talking to different individuals that I didn't ask to be transferred to I found that I needed to re-submit a form that I know nothing about nor did I receive an email or any other form of communication to even attempt to address the situation.
If you are a Veteran...go directly to the Veterans Affairs personnel. I had more help from Randy in 10 minutes than anyone else at that university over the course of months.
This is disappointing for a student who is willing and ready to learn. If you are reading this, really consider everything I've said because this is your life and ultimately your future.
Completely annoyed. During my application process gsu took double the amount out of my account and now trying to reach them to give it back is hell. I called and waited a full episode of the Wendy Williams show and half of The Real. Then got on the phone with some jerk who acted like he couldn't do anything so I called the next day right when they opened at 10 and still ended up on hold for 2 hours just to get another idiot who told me I could at least send an email. So your telling me I paid an extra $60 for nothing and waited 45 mins to tell me I can send an email. By the way I sent an email, fax, phone call and still nothing
Not safe. Transferred because students get shot or robbed every week. 80% of the professors I had didn't know the material, my advisors had me take incorrect classes (4 to be exact), and they have 107.9 play in the courtyard twice a week in FRONT of the library. Hated this school, transferred my senior year.
I feel like Georgia State has watered down their academics. It is common for professors to give 30% of the overall grade in their classes up. They make you do stupid redundant work that has zero application in the real world. Excuse me last time I checked I'm here trying to get a career and get educated. That is why I pay 5,000 dollars in tuition. I personally feel like everyone either gets an A or a B in the classes. This isn't because of the students efforts it is more so the professor being to scared to hand out bad grades. These professors and officials at this school are just inflating everyone's degrees.
Horrible staff who never pick up their phone. Whenever I call, I am placed on hold for at least half an hour and IF they do pick up, they find an excuse to leave you on hold again and the call gets dropped. I literally always had to drive for an hour to go to GSU in person if I ever needed to contact the office since they are careless about picking up phone calls. They wasted hours and hours of my time with this problem. Thank goodness I'm transferring to Ga Tech.
Graduated back in 2013, Robinson College of Business. This school was excellent for me, i had great professors and never had any type of administration problem. I see some negative 1 star reviews about various topics, and frankly, a lot of people are entitled and impatient. This school continues to grow every year, they are making huge investments in infrastructure and research, a very exciting place to be with almost unlimited opportunities, you just have to stop waiting for things to be handed to you and go get them!!
Horrible admissions office, horrible financial aid office. Just a horrible experience trying to apply to this school and get help from anyone in administration. It seems like not a single person cares about your success after you've applied. It has been an extreme struggle to try and get assistance from anyone. This is NOT the school for a working adult. If you have a full time job, FORGET about trying to get any help or anything done over the phone. They are very good at taking your money and not offering help of anytime. The only time I have spoken to anyone that seemed to care was after I started crying. This school is in the business of making money, NOT in the business of producing educated individuals.
I'm graduating from here tomorrow, I think. At GSU grades are due after graduation and my professor for the class I'm worried about won't get back to me so I've worked six long and hard years to walk and I'm not even sure I'm actually going to graduate when I do which is a complete travesty. I've given up the past six years of my life to get my degree and won't even be able to celebrate during a ceremony I paid $50 for along with an $80 cap and down, not to mention the thousands that I am now in debt. I just feel broken at this point and like the very extensive amount of time and money I spent at GSU is ending with a harsh slap in the face and a powerful kick to the bleak hobo-ridden curb.
My degree is in Film and Video and while some classes were beneficial, many of them, as I assume is the case at any college, are mind-numbing. You memorize stuff, spit it out on a Scantron or superficial essay, then forget it. Now you're educated, or rather, you're learning to more willingly jump through hoops for your masters and follow orders regurgitating and writing things that make you completely miserable in the process. Sure, there are good professors here that have very in-depth lectures on course subject matter, but there are also a few whose lessons and assignments do virtually nothing to truly expand your understanding of what they're supposedly teaching their students.
A couple of my film classes, for instance, consisted of making short films and having them ripped apart by the class. Sure, making them was good practice and I received some good feedback on my work, but couldn't I have done that outside the setting of this institution? I'm also an English minor and your average writing class is the same empty void: read assigned and student works and subjectively hyper-analyze and critique them. Can you not practice writing outside of the sterile brick and concrete confines of Georgia State? I guess not.
Don't get me wrong, I've intermittently enjoyed my time incubating and postponing employment here and did like some aspects of GSU. They have cool speakers from time to time (you pay for them in fees), decent events (more fees), a somewhat nice gym (fees), and other amenities that you can expect to receive at today's colleges but overall do I feel intelligent and optimistic after graduating? No, instead I feel mangled, old, weak, and straddled by a mountain of debt as I near my completion on the GSU assembly line. Maybe since I'm so educated now I forgot what it was like to not be, or maybe I've just been slowly having my mind molded by the powerful force that is the college institution. One last note if you're still forcing yourself to take them. I lived on campus freshman year and I would not recommend living in an overpriced dorm since you will be at risk of sharing a room with a complete sociopath. You've been warned.
Very unprofessional when it comes down to registration and admission process. The employees only look for negative or applicant late submissions to make excuses for not doing their job properly. I have submitted my transcript but it takes way too long to get accepted. Plus they let you know what's missing when you bother by asking what i missed. When i called many times, the person answering the phone was not being helpful. Instead, she and he, started making me feel bad for the late submission. One of the most ridiculous part is that they said I will know If i get accepted or not when the school starts. However, when i wait that long, I won't be able to even attend to another school because GSU dragged too much my time and other schools had already started a week before the GSU. So basically, they want to play Russian roulette with my registration status this upcoming fall 2015 semester. If i get accepted, I only have one day to solve everything including finance, advisement, registration, and other things i don't know about it yet. If i don't get accepted, I won't be able to attend to any school until the next spring semester. This is my experience with GSU. The school is good, but the people who works there aren't.
worst college system i have ever delt with. I don't even attend classes from them anymore and using their site or trying to get a hold of any faculty, as well as ordering transcripts is impossible. biggest waste of my life i can't stress how much i hate this place. would give negative stars if possible
If I could I'd give this school a zero. For what you pay you get the absolute worst customer service! Since they did the merger it has been chaos. Nobody knows nothing, and its at least a 2hr wait on the phone. They charge for silly things that students shouldn't be charged for. I'd save yourself the time and stress, and just go to a way better school.
Apparently, unless you're a grad student, nobody in the admin offices cares about inconveniencing you. And sometimes it feels like they go out of their way to inconvenience you. Every time I try to pay my tuition or register for classes it's a nightmare. If you have a choice, go someplace else.
The only free parking is out by the old Turner Field and students will literally push you out of the way to get on the shuttle buses going to campus. There need to be more buses or a faster route because it's honestly rude af.
The campus is just too small to accommodate the significant growth in students. Hope you like people mowing each other down in the hallways in between classes, people jamming themselves through crowded doorways, and noisy libraries.
The only reason this even has three stars is because the Astronomy department is terrific and the help outside of class is pretty legit. Everything else is a grease fire.
I don't even go to this college and always keep seeing the police blocking an area. A few weeks ago two college "kids" where fighting an uber driver I herd might be a lie because they had the yellow tape out again. I say kids because grown people don't fight they talk . I see too many kids/immature young adults going to this college and too much crime. I would never go to college.
Thank goodness I only have to go here 2 years for my Masters. Staff is professional and courteous, but the financial aid office is beyond the most ridiculous experience I've ever encountered. There's always an issue registering for courses, and when I call them I'm on hold for over and hour EVERY TIME. Not to mention my advisor is a complete moron, always telling me the wrong information or not giving me full information on registering for courses which always causes me headaches. Can't wait to be done.
i wanted to know if this is the right place for me to obtain my master in becoming a Obstetrician so if anyone has any information or experience of this schools medical field will you please give me some advice.
Georgia State is by far the worst managed school I have ever attended, dealt with or even heard stories of. Only maybe half of the people in the offices know what's going on and what you need to do, and good luck ever getting a hold of them. You can ask five people the same question and easily get at least three different answers. There is a small mountain of red tape for everything, even just registering. And don't expect them to get your bill right the first time, or at all if you're unwilling to spend all day running around and complaining. On the positive side, there are many opportunities available, especially for grad students. Some of the professors are very good teachers are will help you, while others can't teach at all and are likely to fly off the handle. Overall I'd say that the classes are slightly on the easy side, but if you pick the right professors you can get a decent education.
Christopher Almond is the best academic adviser, hands down. My road to graduation has been a long one, considering that I am NOT a traditional student. If the adviser is new to the school...it has hurt me in the past. Since being advised by Mr. Almond, I am on my fast track to graduation...completion! He is available for the student and has helped me tremendously. He is VERY knowledgeable on class information, tuition and fees, and a whole plethora of other information that previous advisers sent me around Atlanta to find. Even though he is an undergraduate adviser, as a senior, I still request him. :)
The greatest research college in U.S.S.A. ! My son was graduated from there in 2002 and received a well rounded and grounded education. The campus is lovely and the Georgian people are the most adorable people embracing true family values. My mother was born there and I will always love her birthplace as my hometown and home state. Kudos to the state of Georgia for being home to some the finest educational institutions in the planet!! Thank you for your dedication.
I give it a 2 out of 5 .. Not the best school to attend. I couldn't wait to get the hell out of there.. I graduated and didn't attend the ceremony. GSU had potential,but lousey professors who read to you, ans that is not teaching.. Before going here look deeper into the choice as this is a solid investment and GSU to me was money not spent well.. Buyer beware is all I can say..
I really want to go here for their nursing program, but they really need to get their act together for -admission (claims they take 4-6 wks, actually more like 10-12 wks) -taking calls -updating their site on who to email or call when you need help (some people on there don t even work there anymore so the email is inactive)
Jimmel Fenchez in particular literally never answers his phone. I ve called multiple times at different hours for weeks & he s never answered.
Can't really tell if I'm walking past skid row or Sparks Hall most of the time, especially when I decide to pull a late night study sesh in the library.
People who work there do not want to help students and they all have bad attitudes! Graduate program facultys don't want to call you back or email you back. They will yell at you and say something negative if you ask them for a help. And most facultys do not know what they are supposed to do and they tell you the wrong information. I have been there for 5 years.. Don't waste your money! There are plenty of great schools in G.A. please go somewhere else other than GSU for graduate Education program.
Very nice university. I went withmy school children. The plac is awesome and children learn many new things from this place. I highly recommend this university to everyone.
In my 50s returned to school after rearing my sons. Never missed one day in three years, sat on front row in each class and asked questions like crazy. Professors were challenging and so willing to see us succeed. They never demeaned us and each student WHO PUT IN THE EFFORT AND RESPECTED THE CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM AND OUR CLASSMATES' RIGHTS to also have quality time - THOSE who came to class, did not fall asleep in class (no class was boring to me!), and came with a craving and curiosity for knowledge and a commitment to give their best even if just average was best in some classes -- THOSE students stayed on the Dean's List (I did) and we loooved GSU...those who hated it...probably did the opposite...missed deadlines...partied hard instead of studying...were lazy or spoiled. Life is hard and GSU builds muscle...and heart...both last a lifetime. Best school you can choose. Pay attention in high school, especially YOUR ENGLISH for it MAY influence whether you move forward in class and life. There are too many high school graduates and college APPLICANTS with EMBARRASSING ENGLISH, SPELLING, AND GRAMMAR.
Worst school ever!!!!! If i could give this place negative 5 stars I sure would. I would never advise anyone to go there under any circumstance. The financial aid staff is rude and in helpful (most of them), they re only after your money, they purposely try to make you stay longer than you have to, and the out of state tuition is ridiculous. This school is not worth a single penny of mine.
I currently go here and about to crossregister at georgia tech before I finish my triple major so when I graduate, I will receive a dual seal. This is a wonderful school, with many former GA Tech teachers! The assignments are thoughtful and challenging. The staff is amazing as well. As long as you apply yourself, you will receive high marks. I ended up getting an award for academic achievement there . There are A strong of great places to eat around campus ranging from organic/ vegetarian and vegan to the most amazing Pho soup as well. Of course what is college without amazing cooked to offer pizza. The andrew young schoo of policy is amazing and stately and the lawschool library for the budding lawyer , or language student is an amazing place to study. A few tips for applying: print your application for financial aid with the school after filling the FAFSA online because because it's easier for them to have a concrete sheet of paper to file right there. There is a help line you can call if you need any assistance with applying, the process, where to park, or even if you forgot your password.
Financial Aid is the worst. They NEVER answer the phone. The office is open MF 9-5 so for those students who work full-time hours you will never be able to make it in on time to talk to someone in person and our only means for communication is over the phone AND THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE due to them never answering the phone! I have literally called every other day for weeks now and have been on hold for an hour and no one has ever picked up. GSU is not full-time workers friendly. I have had trouble arranging class schedules because most of them are in the morning or mid-day!
My grandson really enjoyed his time here. At first we were concerned about him walking around Atlanta, but he never had any problems and learned the bus schedule quickly. The parking at his graduation was handled poorly, but overall we're proud to have a GSU grad in the family!
TL;DR: Do you love paying money for a high school quality education and unhelpful administration? Do you like meeting new people to make as your casual sex friends? Do you like getting 30% of your grade curved for each class? Look no further! GSU is for you!
I hate this university so much. Professors are good, but this school is terrible. Most people here are mostly commuters here using this school to get an easy GPA and would care less to make friends unless you want to have sex with them. Nothing is hard about this university except being overwhelmed with work if you have a poor schedule. To administration and staff, you are nothing more than a walking wad of cash and they'll extort you to the brim while you wait months to talk with an adviser. If you like having easy classes where the biggest essay you have to write is a one-page, double spaced, 12 size font research paper, go to this school then transfer out like the rest of everyone else. Even community colleges are more challenging than this joke. Please do not be suckered in by their welcomes. It is all a farce to suck you into 'High School Hell Part 2'. Please. please, please avoid this school and go somewhere else or you'll be very miserable and regretful.
GSU is continually taking on more students than the staff can handle. Misfiled and lost documents cause huge disruptions in financial aid processing and housing. Many students find themselves in a destitute situation.
I highly doubt as well this school has a 4 star rating. They are pathetic and this school is probably just around for the MONEY. They are obviously unable to handle the load of students that attend here. Every time you call an office, your on hold for at least 30 minutes, there's no way to email anyone and when you do reach someone or miss work to actually speak to someone, you will waste your time because they will give you the wrong information. I have no idea why this school has so many issues, maybe because it is so easy to get into. I should have known better and now that I do, I have officially withdrawn. They are pathetic and this school is probably just around for the MONEY. It's clear why they aren't officially or academically rated. Such a waste.
The education system might be excellent but the way they handle their future students is beyond horrible. I called several times regarding my application and whenever I open my mouth to talk, they hand up the call on me. Not one , not two...
When I sent and email, it takes them days or even more than a week before they can reply me. Waiting time on is more than 10 minutes.
I hope this greate university work on these issues to address them and to train their staffs to treat every caller or student equally and with respect. Admission fee paid and yet they cannot help me with my admission.
This school is money hungry and hit you with a fee for everything and block you from accessing everything in your student until you pay that fee. The student accounts personnel doesn't care and customer service sucks If you ever get a hold of someone that is. The course path for your degree will take longer than other schools. You're better off going to a different school.
Saying that student services (admissions, financial aid, advisement) are abysmal, atrocious, underwhelming, and useless is such a gross understatement. My experience with all of these services honestly could not have been more unsatisfying. Their goal isn t to help you, but to make any non academic experience as difficult, stressful, and irritating as possible.
Applied early for honors college, they lost my transcript, took them over 3 months to admit me after that. Didn t get into honors college because of them. Advisors never email back, always give bad advice (advised me in november to wait to take an entry exam until january; in january gsu said they weren t offering said entry exam until summer. Now taking exam over 1 hour away, have to pay $30 to send scores now as that is my only option (i had much better options if i didn t listen to advisors)). Advisor overrode a placement test score, put me into a class i didn t test into, the school then dropped me from calc, so i had to scramble to get into a prerequisite class, then take 2 extra classes. I have had my advisor change 5 times since i enrolled 3 semesters ago. The school doesn t notify you of an advisor change, nor do they give any special notice. I called to meet with my advisor, the person on the phone said my advisor didn t work there anymore, so i asked who my new one was. Was promptly hung up on and my call back went unanswered. Thanks advisors!
Always multiple problems every semester with financial aid. Financial aid always does random verification forms, which i get selected every semester, and is a very big inconvenience to me. Also, they split my refund in 2, they said they mailed half of it, but it has been 10 days and i have yet to receive my refund. What i ve listed here is probably only about 10% of the problems i ve encountered with GSU.
Absolutely love it! Great faculty! Awesome student organizations and class selections! Plenty of places to eat and socialize! Last but not least 5 floor LIBRARY IS AMAZING
Love this school. I'm am attending to get my masters in social work and love the professors. Would recommend to anyone who wants to get a serious education. We just bought Turner field and georgia perimeter so there will be a lot of growth in the coming years.
We had a fantastic time at the Home Coming Bash 2018. The University hired us once again and the student went wild. They were so happy to see Caricatures by Tony Smith, we were thrilled to be there. Fun times, lasting memories. Check out some of the faces i drew.
Students are always cool. The event is a big deal at the University
Georgia State is a great school. I wish they would do more about the homeless population around campus though if they want it to really be a standout school.
WARNING Do not call them! They do not answer and if they do they can not help you or will transfer you to be put on hold and not helped by someone else. If you have a problem and can not go to the school in person, either hope it resolves itself (it won t) or go somewhere else.
They have the worst communication. Trying to start school for the fall and applied 3 month in advance and something else alsways comes up that you need. Once you submit it take 3 weeks for them to review!!! Wasted $40 application for what? To be told you can't start school because we need this..... And then you turn it in and something else is mussmis! Never on the same page. They just want your damn money!
From the day I applied to this school up till now, I have never been wanting of information. Practically everything you need is on the School website... Go Panther!!!
A great institution with a wonderful incept and success academy for new students. It has the feel of a traditional campus although it is blended and mixed within the city. The campus police department has a string presence which made my niece feel comfortable and secure. Go Panthers!
GSU was a great opportunity. The physics program is phenomenal in both education and reasearch experience. I got genuine research opportunities and even got to see work that I contributed to go to a national lab. I had a great experience with the society of physics students not only dredging through difficult physics work but on adventures like snow boarding and white water rafting. There are many groups to fit your life styles. The math assistance complex is a slightly less organized and less fun but they still try non the less. The only draw back to gsu is your experience is up to you, no one will make you have fun. I have seen many students make thier collegiate carrier mundane and at best mediocre. GSU is fantastic and I wouldn't change it for anything.
Beautiful school, but horrible location. I never ONCE felt safe at this school since the location is mixed with the downtown locals. UNSAFE UNSAFE UNSAFE. If you're choosing a school, run from this one.
What a waste of time! Not to mention the amount of debt I've obtained over the years. I've watched them take money from students, force teachers to write books and sell them... only to buy more buildings to persuade the masses! How ironic that financial aid could only get you enough money for tuition for books and you would have a $500 balance to borrow more money... the ultimate setup to acquire for loans and more money to them. Not to mention the "Book Store Credit"... to purposely draw you into spending twice as much money on REQUIRED books. There are also a ton of hidden fees in your account ledger that they do not tell you about (because we're paying for all of the upgrades around the "campus"). I used to like the school... then I realized... the lines are getting longer... I am taking IRRELEVANT forced classes... the Financial Aid office reps are trained robots... the buildings are getting nicer... parking fees are increasing.... I am not a name.... I am barely a number! But numbers lie, as do big financial institutions... that are only about MONEY! Stay away!!!! If the homeless don't get you (attacks and robberies), then GA State will find a way!!! If 30,000 students pay at least $3,000/semester, that's $90,000,000! :/
Oh... and grades are not released until you evaluate your professor. Very intimidating. (You can choose to not give a comment, but good luck with that)!
I visited Georgia State with my high school seniors from Columbus Georgia and was thoroughly impressed with the level of professionalism and warmth demonstrated towards us by both the tour guide and other staff we encountered. I believe they most certainly gained some incoming Freshmen from my group. Additionally, their student cafeteria has some of the most delicious and reasonable food I have ever encountered at any other higher educations institution! WOW! It was delicious! The campus appears to have top notch facilities and the location in the downtown area proved to be a benefit rather than a negative. Very impressed with the various courses of study, especially in the media disciplines. Very impressive Georgia State. Keep up the good work! Mr. J
I gotta give it 2 stars because there are some decent professors and students here, but we're all victims of a painfully inefficient, incompetent, and disdainful bureaucracy and staff. The facilities are not maintained, and nothing works. It's also a terribly dangerous part of town after dark. I wouldn't recommend having night classes here, but people have also been robbed inside the buildings during the day. Bad reviews for this school have a tendency to disappear. Let's see how long this one lasts.
