Took my senior to the college tour and it was just so all over the place. Ignorant loud parents and…read morestudents as well as guides who just didn't care enough to give the tour. I witnessed guides leaving families out of conversations and not giving chances to ask and answer questions. My kid also was approached by some other kid from God knows where on the tour bus and he tried to fist fight her. Nothing was done. And the faculty just kind of drops you off at the end and leave you to fend for yourself. The cafeteria food was terrible, the green beans bbq chicken in particular but the dining room staff were all kind and amazing. As soon as we got to the parking lot we scratched Valdosta state off the list and this was her top college.

This review is mostly specific to VSU's Odum Library and also its student center--I was visiting…read morewhile doing academic research and not a student at VSU myself, so I cannot comment on classroom instruction, student life, or faculty really. (Although that said, I know a couple students there who are very pleased with the school and their overall education.) The Odum Library is a large, modern, facility built I would guess from its design in the later 1980s or early 1990s. It's clean and not really showing its age but does display efforts at keeping it current. The reference librarians lead by Laura Wright and Denise Montgomery are beyond helpful, knowledgeable, and adroit. Denise especially was able to answer many specific research questions I had and even came over to offer more advice unsolicited, which was above and beyond the call of duty and very appreciated. The special collections are well-housed and easy to access and their archive of local history is superb for researchers researching issues germane to Valdosta and the region. Also of note, the library has a collection of original Rembrandt, Dalí, and other prints and medieval illuminated manuscripts. These were donated by a benefactor to the library with instructions to house them where patrons would see them, however, it's amazing they're not in a dedicated museum or gallery given their notability and value (they are though framed and presented very nicely and professionally). They line a hall between the circulation desk and reference desk and are a must-see if at the library for any reason. Other notes on the campus: most of the architecture is of a Spanish/Moorish revival style which as a cohesive whole actually is very attractive and works really well--it's a pretty campus overall. There are also many fountains both large and small: I've never seen a school so enamored with darn fountains. The student center is fairly new and contains a Starbucks, Moe's, and other fast food restaurants and is comfortable and well-appointed if a bit small. My friend Trayvon says they actually always do have various student life activities going on and the campus is a pleasant and engaging place. People, whether students or faculty here, are nice--like really, really, nice. Very helpful and friendly, moreso than many institutions I've visited.

Great school. Presently working on masters after completing my bachelors here. Great people.read more

Especially when they are rivals like UF and FSU. That was an experience in itself. I got to see the lively college party scene and game scene. I was mesmerized. Fast forward to Oct 17-18, 2025 and we got to bring our kids here so they could see where their dad went to college. Hubby was so proud and gave them a tour of where he lived, his frat house, the campus, the hangouts and of course THE SWAMP!!!! We arrived on Fri 10/17 for the Gator Growl which is their Pep Rally the day before the game. We got tickets to a Florida Blue Key Event as he was part of this organization when he went to school here. They held the event in the building where the basketball games and gymnastics take place. The event was cool as we had food & drinks included and a cute Photo Booth area to take photos. Afterwards, we went into the basketball stadium to find our seats to watch the Gator Growl. They brought out the dancers, cheerleaders, National Championship Basketball team, homecoming court and played several videos of celebrities, important peeps and influencers hyping up Gator Growl. The big performer of the night was Steve Aoki and he definitely brought the energy! We had a BLAST!!! We walked around the campus after the show and stopped into Reitz Union to look around but also grab some late night eats. The only spot open late was Sonic. Good enough. Game day was on Sat 10/18. UF vs Mississippi. We arrived around 2pm to tailgate. Stopped by hubby's old stomping grounds at his frat house. That was overwhelming but a fun tailgating scene. Afterwards, we walked around and checked out all the tailgaters around the stadium, got some food from the food trucks and then headed into the game around 4pm. We got some super sized High Noon canned drinks and damn they were expensive at $22 each can. Ouch! We got Gatorade for the kids, naturally. We had BOMB seats 2nd row back by the 50 yard line on the visitors side, fortunately for us there were still mainly UF fans on this side too. Ha. Fabulous game with tons of hyped up energy!!! Gators ended up winning 23-21 so it was AWESOME!!! What a super fun weekend! So happy we got to bring the kids here to give them a glimpse into the college experience. My husband called this the "College Promo Tour"!!! Lol. UF is a stunning campus and widely spread out. Gainesville is a good time indeed. We would love for the kids to go to college here but honestly, almost all of the Florida colleges are stellar choices! UF is KING for obvious reasons! GO GATORS!!!

Proud, Gator mom here! This school is something special. Voted number one public university and…read morenumber 15 overall in the United States by the Wall Street Journal. UF provides one of the best higher educations in the country. Unlike when I went to school, if you signed your name on the application you pretty much got in. Now admission is tough. Only the top 2% of a high school graduating class are admitted. Every year on the last Friday in February, anxious students pray that email opens with floating gators! The school has so much to offer. Outside of education there are nationally ranked sports teams. Just experience a football weekend and you will see the school spirit and you will see where the term "Saturdays are for the Gators" came from. So many top athletes have come from UF, football, basketball, baseball, gymnastics, swimming and more. Not into sports, there are plenty of other clubs and activities available. The Reitz Union is where students gather. There's a great rec center inside with a bowling alley, pool tables, foosball and plenty of food choices. There's so much offered on campus. Ok, I'm a but partial, I'm a gator through and through and my sons a gator. When ever I drive up and get close to the school, I think how much it's grown since I was there and how great it is to be a Gator and now a Gator mom!!!
