When I attended AASU, one of the things that I thought was crazy is that they don't offer an undergraduate business degree, however they will prep you to go to another school to get one. Oh another thing, PARKING: Make sure you have a decal or you will get ticketed!! Students drive like maniacs in the parking lot so beware and look both ways. The campus and student activities have continued to grow which is a plus. Celebrate Armstrong Day and festivals are always fun- be sure to check out AASU art exhibits and the Masquers student theatre troupe from time to time. Plays are always reasonably priced for students and the general public. All in all, I feel like there are more pros than cons and would definitely recommend this university. PS. High non-traditional student population and a nice mix of people.

I spent four years at Armstrong and lived in the dorms. Armstrong has commuter students and…read moreresidential students. I am sure the experience is different. I also competed in sports and was on the student Senate. For those who came to campus and were gone by noon, they need to realize that Armstrong was different because they chose to make it Abercorn High by living with mommy and daddy rather than experiencing a true college life and attending Armstrong as a university. Either that or they were the middle aged students who were finally coming back to get an education usually in nursing or teaching. If you want a college experience, I recommend living on campus. Either get an apartment right off campus or stay in the dorms, which are basically apartments with kitchens and bathrooms nowadays (unlike the community showers some of us remember down the hall) with individual student bedrooms (once again, no snoring roommate either in the same bunkbed with you or across the tiny 10 foot room you share). The apartments or dorms on campus are great. As for the student who posted that Armstrong does not offer an undergraduate business degree, learn to do some research. Armstrong was sued in the 1980's by the historically black college Savannah State. As a result of this lawsuit, the University System of Georgia divided the education programs to make them "equal." This is why Naval ROTC is at SSU and Army ROTC is at Armstrong; Business is at SSU and Education is at Armstrong; Marine Biology is at SSU and Nursing is at Armstrong, etc. There have been exceptions over the years since the agreement to make them "equal," but for the most part, neither school is allowed to compete against the other with programs--so they are split. Armstrong is a great school.

The teachers do whatever they want. They will fail me because my discussion showed too much effort…read more One teacher posted my name publicly in the discussion forum. "No name, if you have questions post them here." Publicly embarrassing me and if I ask to submit s complaint that academic advisor tells me to just drop out.

I missed an exam and they wouldn't even accept my doctor's note. We also have several students in the class that have been sick and family members to pass and still couldn't get 24 hours to even grieve. It shouldn't be like this and something has to change.

After living in Savannah for 7 years, it was nice to be able to experience all the presence of the SSU community and beyond. Homecoming was really nice and I can't wait to attend next year.

Only complaint is that the layout of classrooms makes it impossible to go to class without disrupting six other rooms full of people, as the classes are just lined up.

We went on…read morea day trip to Gray's Reef for a workshop day and ended up staing on the R/V Savannah overnight. 1. A fantastic boat ride twenty miles out to sea to see a cold water reef? Definitely a must see for anyone that wants to see natural beauty. We got the full tour of the boat and how they do things in terms of robotics. Just follow the directions of the ships crew and everything will be fine. They're all pretty nice. The cook is a straight forward guy with a dry sense of humor. I like that in a person. 2. If you lack sea legs like I do, take your Dramamine. I'm usually okay later in the day but if the water is rough you'll hate life. Luckily I did okay. Mornings on boats are always rough for me. 3. They served us lunch, dinner, and breakfast. Let them know ahead of time of any dietary restrictions otherwise you'll get standard lunch and dinner fare. Sandwiches, etc. It's a research vessel, not a cruise line. 4. We stayed overnight on the boat. Small quarters on bunk beds. The beds are a little hard and made for average height people. if you're tall or large, you might need to make other accommodations. I slept pretty well. They have hot showers but you'll have to keep them short to conserve water and reduce build-up of grey water *used water). They're conscious of their environment. 5. Wake up early for a fantastic sunrise. Not much can beat a coastal sunrise in Georgia. Check out the facility on the island. It's deep south oaks with Spanish moss hanging. As stereotypical as it gets and worth it.
