Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot It's hard to fail at this school. Their program Freshman Experience, keeps you in constant contact with advisors, professors, and tutors. You even have to check in with them.
Am enjoying being here I knew I wanted to experience living on campus, but living at Saint Augustine's has been just about the best experience ever.
Bang for the buck Considering it is a private college, the tuition is relatively low compared to other private colleges in the area. The campus is beautiful and the professors are of great prominence.
Tips for prospective students When shopping for your school, make sure it is a fit for not just you, but the family. Compare everything, classes, dorms, activities, access to off campus activities, and you will be sure to have made the right choice.
Great for these types of students If you struggled in high school, but know that you can achieve and want to achieve than Saint Augustine's is the right school for you. The atmosphere is great for learning and the nuturing environment will assure that you do learn, as long as you want to.

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot I am studying in the Math and Science Division which has a newly acclaimed status of the top 11% of the nation's best schools in Math and Science. But the curriculum appears to be very useful and informative. I believe the curicculum gives a student the education and resouces to be successful in not only recieving a degree but moving on into graduate school or in the workforce.
Am enjoying being here The school population is small which allows excellent opportunities to socialize and make new friends. The campus is relatively small. Classrooms and various division buildings are within very close proximity. The food is all you can eat buffet style with multiple choices of selection.
Bang for the buck The price for this school is moderate. The school is a private college, with prominent professors. There is NO OUT OF STATR TUITION! Everyone pays the same price. The current tuition cost is 22,000. So depending on personal preference the cost of school can be considered good or bad.
Tips for prospective students Build a relationship with the school. Check the website and observe the majors and curriculum that is offered. Visit the campus if possible. Be organized, when registering or applying for school, keep copies of ALL DOCUMENTS you have such as admissions paperwork, FAFSA, FinAid papers, Housing, Student Accounts, etc. If you are given or presented with any documentation that is related to your attendance, duration or account from any college you are or planning on attending make copies and save them in an organized fashion. One never knows what can happen in the future, don't be caught off guard.
Great for these types of students This school is excellent for individuals who enjoy having closer relationships with professors. If a student prefers more one-on-one time with teachers then this is definitely a good school to look at. Questions are welcomed and explained during class. Students who would like to have smaller class sizes or receive more attention in class should look into attending.

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot I think the professors here are pretty decent. They have so many different teaching styles here and there is so much you can learn from these professors here. I feel like I am learning so much about myself and about the world by being here.
Am enjoying being here I do enjoy being here. I think that there is a lot to do out here especially off campus. There are a lot of jobs that sponsor students and help them to get their work experience up. There are definitely fun activities to do around The campus and the area.
Bang for the buck They will definitely give you a run for your money. I think that the way they do certain things for the students such as the homecoming and spring fling and things of that nature is really worth you spending your money as well as getting an education.
Tips for prospective students Tips for students I would give is that definitely watch who you hang around and also be careful who you tell your business to because the campus is small and stuff gets around fast. Stay involved in the school, it definitely helps you in the long run and people recognize you for it. Another thing I would also say is that you need to stay on your schoolwork 24/7 because of the simple fact that the teachers here don't really cut you no slack.
Great for these types of students Great for people with great social skills, people who love the entertainment business, aspiring singers, dancers, models, everything.

Categories Rating Comments Am enjoying being here A nice school with a friendly campus, if you are a student who does not excel in big classrooms then Saint Augustine's College is for you. Professors at St. Aug like to be well acquainted with their students by providing study halls and exam reviews. I really enjoy learning at the Aug.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences Saint Augustine’s College is a wonderful college with high hopes for the students who are currently attending and will attend in the future. This College has a history and still continues to make history as the years go by. This school is one that helps students, and does not give up on them, especially when they are at the toughest points in their lives striving to reach their goals.
Tips for prospective students For the students who plan to attend Saint Augustine's College in the future I will say, follow your dreams. I would also say that this college is one that will be behind you through whatever decision you make with you career path. The last thing I would say is stay ahead of your work in your academics, enjoy your time here as a student, and become successful.
Academic Rigor Academics at Saint Augustines College is very fair and well presented. The academics should come at a well level as long as you stay on top of the game. For example getting your work done on time, doing well on test and quiz grades. Keeping your gpa up is very important because it allows you to have in advantage with your education you recieve and, the awards you can achieve.
Dorm Life Dorm life is something that will help you grow as a person when it comes to people skills, and living with someone you may not know anything about. This is also something that you will at first have to adjust to because; it is different from being at home in your regular comfort zone. As for me I adjusted, and I accept my dorm life it was not always easy but, I am happy that I had a chance to experience this life style.
Food and Dining The food at Saint Augustine’s College is descent. Rather you agree with the food or not is up to you and what exactly you like to eat. In the cafe there are about five different options you can choose from. The dining area is descent as well, and has a well-developed atmosphere.
What to do for fun Saint Augustine's College activities are found throughout the days. There is a building by the name of Goold Hall for recreation. This building is full of games and fun that you can share with you peers. Then at times fun is just found within yourself and your friends. This school also host several events and celebrations throughout the year.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Being that this campus is an HBCU, most of the buildings are named after former presidents of the school. A whole lot of the buildings have meanings behind them and serve a very important role for the shcool.
Great for these types of students Students who are really trying to make something out of their lives and who really want to have a career will do well here. There are times to play, there are times to study, and get into the books.
Clubs and Activities There are multiple clubs and activities that are offered everyday to the students. Alot of the clubs take place in the major of your choice. For example, chorus, dance, writing and the list goes on because for just about anything you can think of there are one or more clubs that relate to it.
Greek Life Greeik life on campus is very nice. You are able to recognize who belongs to what. They are very dedicated to what they do and they respect what they have become. For students who are coming, they would most likely have an interest in one or another.
Campus Safety Campus safety is very important and plays a big role at Saint Augustines College. Throughout the day and nights there is a seurity staff which walks the campus making sure things are secure and that the rules are being followed.
