Thank You.

Very cautious about who comes on and off the campus during this time. The kids are very safe. I didn't see any kids walking around without mask on inside or out.

Horrible school I wouldn t recommend my dog go here!! This my last semester they play with your financial aid the Dean acts like he has no control over his school and they are unprofessional!

Alumni NEED to develop an association that will raise funds and sponsors to REVITALIZE a famous HBCU. Honor the Legacy like LSU (which is less than 30 minutes up the highway).

The 89th year of the Miss Southern University Coronation Ceremony was exquisite; beautiful Queen, Ladies, and their Escorts. Grand accolades to all of the intellectuals who devoted their greatnesses to the flawless recognition of current and future leaders of the world.

My how I wish many more positive flourishing hearts, minds, and Spirits would have and could have attended such a wonderful historical moment in our Institution of Higher Learning and nurturing. To the parents, students, educators, and sponsors, GREAT! GREAT! GREAT! Geaux Jaguars. All the best during your Homecoming celebrations.

Honored to attend my first Miss Southern University Homecoming Queen Coronation Ceremony. Royalty and Self Assurance is cultivated. * I Learned my Family has a Legacy within this historical coronation ceremony.*
God Bless the Children!!!

I love my university! The HBCUs experience is unparalleled and cannot be understood while looking from the outside.

Best school for preparing me for not only the work place but real life. Wouldn't go anywhere else.

Best HBCU in the world, Craig!(Funky Factory, M phi G)

Horrible waiting n long lines kept getting the rum around so much confusion wasn't organized more safe practice need to b reinforce

It's a feel to go To this university. People are cool and a lot happens. No specifics.

Attending and graduating from Southern University was a great experience. I am thinking about getting my Master's from SU.

I have several problems and concerns with this school.

How do you have a power outage for 5 days with no resolution or answers? What do you do with the students who can't go home, stick them in a dome ?!? You can't be serious, you wouldn't do it to you own kid.

For the money you all are charging these children your streets and facility is ran down and out dated.This leaves me to ask, WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THEIR MONEY????

Don't worry I'll find out.

Southern university has one of the lowest graduation rates in the entire nation and receives one of the highest per student rates of federal funding. With a amazingly low 6% graduation rate over 5 years, Yes I know it looks like a error but google it, less then a 6% graduation rate.... Why should tax payers pay for a 94% failure rate....... Amazing

My Uncle is going to be in Southern University Hall of fame. Yaaaay!

If you a student not interested in partying and all that stuff this school not for you if you wanna catch something this the place to go

I love SU but there are better schools out here who care more about their students success don't go here unless you can deal with what comes with it.

My daughter is a freshman at this school. It was her dream to attend Southern, and it was my dream for her to attend a HBCU. Unfortunately, neither of us have appreciated the experience. She is closing out her 2nd semester there and the school has been consistently letting her down. The plumbing is always backed up, the lights constantly go out, the ac and heat have gone out on several occassions, any and all processes involving moving in and out of the dorms are terribly unorganized. My daughter was told she needed to move out on the day she had a final. Its been awful. I expected that when I sent my daughter to school it would be as close to home as I could make it. I made sure she had everything she needed, all the school needed to do was to do their part (provide housing and education). Although she has managed to survive these past two semesters academically, she has suffered and I believe her grades could have been alot better if not for the constant troubles with the functions of the school

I attended Southern many years ago as a commuter student. I had a positive experience. SU's instructors offer you one-on-one interaction because they genuinely want you to graduate & succeed in life. I learned many valuable life lessons on the professional and personal level. You learn a lot about Louisiana history, specially the role Creole culture has in the Louisiana African American community. I wouldn't trade my experience there for anything!

I'm so graduate from Southern University. With out the education I received from the university I would not be where I am today. The Army ROTC program was the best and now I'm retired and working in the cyber security environment. The only thing I did not do while attending the school was pledge Delta Sigma Theta. It's in my heart and will complete this journey in life.

It gave me an opportunity to get a quality education...

I love Southern University! I grew up loving it because my mom and all of my uncles, aunts and cousins graduated from and it is where I WILL graduate from. I cant wait!

Thanks for showing my baby Dad a good time while working there. K bye.

I went to Southern University for their nursing simulation today. I had $5 to eat due to the fact that I accidentally left my money on my dresser. I was sitting down eating a candy bar when a woman came up to me and asked me if I was hungry, I had told her that I was fine and that I had accidentally left my money at home. I moved to sit with my friends and another woman came to me with a bag of Chic-fil-a and had told me this is for the young lady who left her money on her dresser. I realized that the lady before was a worker at Chic-fil-a (manager, I believe). I got up and thanked the entire staff because I couldn t believe that the manager would go out of her way to give me food. Amazing staff. They were so kind and I m just amazed. The simulation was amazing as well but this just made my day.

I am only giving two stars because Southern is an HBCU that does cater to and represent the black community. The experience with the administration, however, is awful. Every time you try to get classes, records, or financial aid corrected, you get the run around. They always send you to different departments who in turn, send you back to the department you originally contacted. Financial Aid is the most unorganized and unprofessional departments I have ever come across. They always try to pass your issue off to the Cashier's Office and they're rude and lazy. The registrars office is a hot mess--for lack of a better phrase. Some professors are nice and fair while others are rude and inconsiderate. Most people you come across make it their daily goal to avoid doing their jobs and don't even try to seem caring of a student's issues. There are better, more professional HBCUs who frankly, have a much better reputation and gives you a much better education. I am truly saddened that a great HBCU has become so unprofessional and unbearable because of it. I will not be attending next fall.

Southern is one of the best Historical Afro American College in the Nation. I love southern! It is a experience that every young man and woman should Challenge.

This an very great HBCU to attend and visit. Southern has a very good College of Business, Engineering, Nursing and much more. College is what you make up it and you have to branch out for help if you need help and people would gladly help you. I learned that my freshman year at Southern.

I HATE THIS SCHOOL! it s very unprofessional & unsanitary to say we re in a whole pandemic! I would NOT recommend! Move in day and orientation started on the 4th and no one told us anything about the schedule. Do not come here, u will be disappointed. This is not the 1st time college experience I ve expected.

The only HBCU to have branches in other cities...that's a 5 star rating by itself

Southern University A&M College is nationally ranked in the colleges of Engineering, Business, Law and School of Nursing. This HBCU has a deep heritage in the African American community, but shows no hesistation in competing against all colleges throughout the nation to engage students and present the best opportunities for academic and career success. US leaders, athletes, businesses, entrepreneurs, and industrial systems have roots at Southern University. This university is known for preparing it's student for the realities of life and the faculty and staff pride themselves off of introducing the tools to conquer the battles through education.

Honestly I've seen a lot of bad commentary about this school and I would just like to address the fact that this is like any other University where you must get involved. There is a lot to do and many activities SGA and other organizations host throughout the year. Like any other HBCU the workers do run on CP time so you must be persistent and serious about the work you need to get out the way and most professors are willing to help if you look like you're trying. I sadly had to leave me first semester of Freshman year during the Fall of 2016 but I proudly wear my material any chance I get. Don't look into this school for negative reasons and give negative reviews back.

Alright I'm about be getting close to being there just 2 more years of school to come to the school. So now peace be with me.

one of the worst experiences I'm leaving when the semester is over.. I came and I still haven't learned anything! Only thing good is the band so many people are leaving next semester I am paying for books I can't even get! I'm paying for cable that don't work this is the worst HBCU!!!! It's all a lie

Proud alumni, great friends, the dorms could use some TLC but I would send my child if I lived in Baton Rouge, LA

I had such terrible experience,the administration is terrible.and the housing department is petty. You will recieve no justice on this campus if anything happens to you. I loved the teachers though. If you do attend i would say staying off campus would be the best choice. It offerss a really good education if you can get past them stealing your money and treating you like less of a human being when i comes to financial aid and the rest of the administration. And not to mention the dorms are filthy and horrific if you care about having a really homey environment and being around staff that actually cares and has to offer great programs go to ULL or another institution southern is butt.

Well the human jukebox is the Best and they have the best nursing program

I love that my son enjoys this school but I find it an extreme problem that the school's clinic close at 5pm. My son is having extreme pain in his stomach right now (8pm) and has no choice but to remain in pain because the clinic is closed. Why not have a 24 hr clinic for cases as such? Why do these teens have to suffer in pain or resort to calling an ambulance? I truly feel this should be looked in to ASAP!

A great University. I'm a 1991 graduate. Also me people. Great instructors. Wonderful place to attend football games. Go Jags.

I attend in 1978, while were there the school a lot to me. I wish i could have taken school seriously. Now i want to start a $500.00 dollars give away to better students school supplies.
