SFASU Reviews

I was there an lived in hall 14. It was loud and you couldn't get anything done. The teachers and advisers are a joke. They would tell you one thing and do another. A good example would be the science department. They give you extra credit and I did the extra credit but I never received any points for doing it. Then when I challenged the grade with the dean the teacher erased the extra credit part on his syllabus. I respond to anyone looking at this college to look somewhere else. There are better schools to go to. Also, the admission requirements are very easy.

Pretty nice and walkable campus with those amazing tall trees that makes you feel as if you were in somewhere in the mountains.

A small, but challenging school. Tucked deep in the heart of the Piney Woods of East Texas, it has a beautiful campus. Loaded with pine trees and a beautiful arboretum. I had a great 2.5 years here. Taking my family back to homecoming weekends is fun too.

Personally I would walk the trails everyday. Its very peaceful and beautiful. Very NICE JOB GUYS.

This is a great campus located in Nacogdoches, the Oldest town in Texas. As a graduate of the class of 2008, I will have to say I am a little biased here. The campus look has a unique mixture of old buildings and there is always something for students to do. Do yourself a favor and come visit SFASU and become a fellow Lumberjack!

BAAS CLASS OF '89. PROUD OF MY TIME AT SFA. IT WENT WAY TO QUICK BUT IT CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER FOR THE BETTER. GO JACKS.

Great University. It prepared me well for graduate school at 2 tier 1 research universities. Class size was small and personal. Ag department was great.

Graduated in 98. I had a great experience here. The campus is beautiful and my professors were great.

I received a great nursing education at SFA. It was challenging, but it prepared me for what was to come ahead. Everyone who graduated in the same class as me passed the NCLEX board exam on the very first try. Thanks SFA!!

One semester in and I'm running far far away. Sucks every cent out of you. Paid $60 for parking just to have to look for a spot for hours. My roommate went to get food the other day at 11 at night and finally gave up looking for parking at 2am. Getting food right across the road didn't take 3 hours... (more like 15 mins) then got ticketed for parking in a hall director spot for the night because she wanted to go to sleep.. never bring your car here if you're tricked into going here. Also the cafeteria food isn't okay. You're forced to get a meal plan just like you're forced to get a dorm. Any vegetarians beware!!! I've found meat in their vegan options (like a piece of pepperoni on a vegan pizza). Also the dorms you're forced into aren't safe. The bathrooms are small and the vents seem to be moldy or rusty... either way I've stayed away from cleaning that because I don't have the equipment to do it safely. The shower is cramped at best and has long yellow stains and uneven tiles. The walls are thin and you can always hear someone doing something. Don't expect to get any studying done. (Not like you're going to college to study right!?!?)... also expect fines for everything.. they also charge extra money for anything that's remotely convenient. They will screw you over and the education you could get here isn't worth the heartache.. I loved my last college deeply and it did a lot for me... but this just isn't the fit for any self respecting person who wants to get a meaningful degree.

Good small town campus! My daughter went there in the late 80's and now her 2 daughters are attending there, they're roommate's, age 19 and 21! They like it and have about 6 of their HS friends going there too!

Loved my undergrad experience here. I made many friends, and the faculty is very helpful and caring about their students.

Graduated from SFASU in 1991. I go back now and still feel the same small-town environment. Great place to Liv and get a quality education!

Excellent small time vibe for the people, churches, "places," a beautiful looking campus and a quality education.

It's too bad the former quietness of the University's "front yard" of virgin pines and the carpet of pine needles has been DESTROYED by the Student Union Building's HVAC near constant roar. No longer is it a place for quiet walks or contemplation, socialization or study. Otherwise it receives a FIVE STAR RATING! A beautiful looking campus in a place of Virgin Pines and Tall women.

Probably the best time to visit 'Doches is the Second Saturday in June for the BLUEBERRY FESTIVAL. I and a DEAR friend once were traveling north, out of town when we saw two quite young black children raising 'paint buckets' as high above their shoulder levels as they could. We stopped at the same time as a lady in a Buick also stopped, asking "Are dem yourin?" To which the little girl responded, "No mam, dems BLUEBERRIES!"

GeeBee Rusty is the nom de plume for writer WOODY, '68, sometimes then ALSO known as "FART BLOSSOM," (now known as lactose intolerant).

It has a beautiful campus and small intimate classes with many resources available for students

Have you ever wanted to live deep in the woods? Far from commodities and isolated to the point of insanity? A place where you have to search far and wide for a meal to fill your stomach for the night? A place that few have talked about and even less have returned from? Do you want to experience a different breed of peoples with no real connection to the outside world? Well you should come to SFA. It's all of that, a dream apart from a dream and much more. Also, try T's Sandwiches, they serve up some hella pho.

SFA is an excellent environment for academic learning and research. The College of Forestry has highly rated faculty members and research facilities. I have pleasant memories of the time I spent to complete a doctoral program.

SFA is an awesome university. I do games there some Saturdays. The stadium is a nice facility. Both daughters and son went to school there.

Beautiful campus. Great academic environment. Lots of opportunities to socialize. Friendly (probably because it's a smaller university). I like the small-town setting too.

Learnd lots and have bunch of fun and play with da hottie!!

My best friend had move because her dad got a job here.

Beautiful place to go to school to! I am extremely happy that my daughter is attending school at SFA! She can enjoy the beauty of east Texas!

The environment is friendly and everyone there is nice & helpful but is not the school for me. Tried to give it a chance but didn't last 4 days simply bc the school is super extra and has way toooo many fees for everything. You basically paying for all the "free" things that the school hype up like "free" tutoring and etc. I stayed on campus and the experience was okay depending on which residence hall you choose. The only thing that upsetted me was the fact they gave me a dirty room and I had to basically do their job. Dorms are crazy expensive here and always check your Ebill on a daily bc the school try to sneak extra charges on you to basically get more money. If you choose to stay on campus and have a car I advise to not get a permit for them bc its a waste of money. SFA can be a serious rip off

The most beautiful campus and friendliest folks anywhere !

I JUST SAW THE STATEMENTS FTOM THE BASKETBALL COACHES. PROFOUND. THAT'S ALL PEOPLE WANT IS FOR OTHER RACES TO LISTEN AND UNDERSTAND. GOOD JOB!!! MY SISTER IS AN ALUMNI. YOLANDA PRINCE.

Beautiful campus. My grandson goes to school there and loves it.

Went to watch fireworks. It was easy accessible, perfect view and plenty of parking.

Great Time in NICE Small COLLEGE Town, Shopping n Eating in Old Part was GREAT, OLD EAST TEXAS ATMOSPHERE is Fading

This is my dream college. I will be attending in the spring of 2016. The have the best Forestry college in the country. It has 10 extra hours than any other university, but they have a whole lot more outdoor labs than the rest.

I got two degrees here. Harvard it ain't but it provided me the knowledge to stay employed in my chosen field for my work life. Thanks to all of my professors and fellow students for your collaboration and support.

Congratulations on beating West Virginia in Brooklyn tonight!!!

SFA Zhas one of the best campuses in the state of Texas. The azaleas are beautiful.

Sunday July 8th I dropped of my kid for String Camp, took her to the room where she was going to stay for 5 days and the building floor was dirty and had a mold bad odor, I couldn't breadth, it was bad. someone had left some dirty stinky white socks next to my kid dorm.

It might be an old building but cleaning makes a big difference. cleaning makes a big part in life.

Later that day we went to Cole Auditorium it was nice and everything but for the amount of people they really need a bigger auditorium.

Frida July 13 I went back to pickup my kid, went back to her dorm room and the same dirty stinky white socks still exactly where they were 5 days ago. There was a facility lady guiding the students and I happened to mention her that the dirty stinky white socks that they where still there from Sunday july 8th they still exactly in the same place, I asked her does someone clean this place she said no. and I believe her looking at those conditions.

I don't think this place is suddable for my kids.
I would not recommend it to anyone either.

Something else I like to bring to yout attention is that I bought some water and snacks for my kid turn on the small refrigerator that was in the room, when I went to pickup my kid it was turned off, I opened the refrigerator door and that refrigerator stink so much, I asked my kid why was it turn off and she said the teacher told her to turn it off, I don't understand why why she said to turn it off but that wasn't right, The teacher stayed in the dorm room I'm sure her small refrigerator was on with her favorite drinks and snack. I just think that was very selfish from her part.

The professors at this fine campus inspire the students to become more than just another college graduate.

I loved this university. It is small and the teachers are approachable.

Stephen. F. Austin State University is a largely residential, four-year teaching and research university, college located in Nacogdoches, Texas. Offers degrees at bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels.
