Armstrong has been a great experience. The professors are extremely wonderful. I have gained so much from coming to Armstrong. The availability of the professors for students and the undergraduate research opportunities just make this a place to go for a dedicated student.

Detailed Ratings

Armstrong Atlantic State University is a great college for traditional and nontraditional students. The college is very active in student life and very active in making students feel included around campus. The campus is very nicely kept as far as landscaping goes and the lecture halls. The programs are extremely challenging but are led by professors and doctors who really care about their subjects and their students. The location of campus is perfect, it is in the heart of Savannah with restaurants, malls, and various other social hang out spots surrounding campus. Many places are within walking distance from campus while some are not, so having a car would be ideal. The beach is less than an hour away which is nice for the spring semester students.
