College of Business Administration - Savannah, Georgia

I visited Savannah when the campus was on summer break. My rating is for the beauty of the campus. The campus has a nice and cozy feeling to it. There is a lot of history captured throughout campus. The fraternity/sorority row is ornately decorated. That part of campus was a great treat.

We went for a college to Savannah State, visiting in July 2019. We didn't do an official visit because they only do those 2 days a week in the summer, and that was fine. This is one of MANY college visits my husband and I have been on with this being our fourth and final child who's preparing for college. This was a unique experience. We got to the campus and was stopped at an entrance gate by a security guard. <--unusual item #1 - we've never had to be admitted on any campus . The security guard then asked each adult for our licenses to check in. <--unusual item #2 - we've never had to sign in just to get on campus. I asked WHY we had to sign in. What's the reason for the strict security? We were told, BY THE SECURITY GUARD, that there have been some robberies and shootings and they keep track of who's all on campus. <-- unusual item #3 - 1st - you didn't check us, our car, nor our background so what's the point of the ID check. 2nd -my other daughter goes to Texas Tech University and they had a school shooting that took the life of a police officer, but they didn't have to permanently put the school on lockdown. The guard advised us that we are not allowed to take any photos on campus, nor go into any buildings. <-- unusual item #4 - we never got an explication for this rule. Just, "it's justa rule". Going into buildings we understood, but photos After reading these reviews, and our unusual visit, we will take all of the advice to stay away from SSU. We don't feel comfortable in their ability to keep our daughter safe. My daughter will keep her focus on Howard University at this time. She just didn't want to go that far north (winter/snow).

I honestly hate to write a negative review however I want to tell the truth about my experience at SSU. Fall of 2016 i started my freshmen year at SSU with a positive outlook, very excited to begin college. I heard all the negative things said about Savannah State but refused to believe them and wanted to see for myself (looking back i wish i had listened). I was a Political Science major and had no academic adviser for the whole school year (Fall 2016-Spring 2017). Apparently the political science adviser had a medical issue, which caused her absence. The school never replaced the adviser and i struggled the entire year to register for classes, get advice, drop classes and add classes. The other advisers were expected to pick up the slack but had TERRIBLE attitudes about having extra students to advise and didn't want to see me or other other Political Science majors. Moving on to campus life : the students are ghetto (fights everyday), the food is nasty, many robberies on campus and the administration is rude and unhelpful to the students. I stayed in Bowen my first semester and it was awful. The dorms had mold, were very old and the bathrooms never had tissue and were always dirty (I moved to Tiger Place 2nd semester and it was much better). This is not a school i would recommend to others. On a positive note, the teachers were good overall.

Someone was shot and stabbed here today and no precaution was taken. A gate is still left unsupervised and people are going in and out all night. This is the main gate foreigners walk on campus from.

Don't come here. But if you do, it's an easy school to get into and once you have your GPA and enough credit hours, leave. This school is for one not safe. Two, the financial aid office is awful. They lose documents and are incredibly rude. They also make you pay 3000 for a apartment complex that needs to be redone and there is a gate that is in the back of the school, and is left unsupervised 24 7. People come and go day and nightly and most of the shooters and robbers who come on campus, leave through that gate. Just don't go here.

We visited for a campus tour. Everything was so unorganized and unprofessional. There were too many people in each group and we stood outside of buildings talking about beach parties instead of academics and organizations. We left the tour when the group stopped to review artwork and chat. One of my daughters is interested in SCAD and the other SSU but I really can't envision sending her here for an education.

I love my HBCU it has made me who I am today ! it has its flaws like any school .. financial aid is always tripping, the food could be better but if you can look past that you will have an amazing time here! SSU is literally a family reunion! you are going to LEARN here lol or else. Attending was the best choice I have ever made! go orange go blue !!!!

Funny that people are mentioning issues with housing. I thought my daughter's application was the only one that was lost. She applied for housing in May. After several phone calls receiving the run around, I finally insisted that they actually look in their system instead of just giving me bogus, made up answers. Long story short, her application was finally retrieved but she didn't get the housing that we had requested possibly due to this lost application.

Update: My daughter has now been at that school for 3 years. They never offer the classes needed to graduate. They don't return emails or phone calls. The advisors are idiots. Financial aid and the registrars office are a joke. This place is absolutely terrible. If you would like to graduate within a reasonable amount of time, don't enroll here. I've been trying to get my child to transfer since she got to this hell hole. Finally my prayers have been answered.

My experience with Savannah State has been awesome ?! I will be graduating this Spring 2017 semester and I am one of the first students to graduate ?‍? from their online BBA program. So, I'm feeling great about that. I will definitely mentor students, as my mentor, Mr Fletcher has mentored me. And will forever be an alumni of the college!
