WHAT I LIKED

I like ETSU because the environment is welcoming and exciting. There are so many things to do on campus and off-campus. ETSU is also a great place to earn your degree, especially in nursing. It is a hard course to get through but if you set your mind to it then you can achieve whatever you want!

WHAT I didn’t LIKE

I don’t like ETSU because on finals week you have to reserve a study room in the library days ahead of time or else you will not get a room

WHAT I LIKED

I got a scholarship so my expenses were covered. A lot of the professors were really nice. I enjoy the campus and climbing at the gym. The dorms are nice.

WHAT I didn’t LIKE

The nursing major is frustrating due to the professors. The material is not hard, but the professors make it difficult. I did not have such a negative experience in other class/when I was a biology major as I have had in nursing.

5.0

WHAT I LIKED

I wasn't a great high school student and they had a program that helped me to ease into college with challenging yet useful classes. The advisors are great and I got matched with a good roommate.

WHAT I didn’t LIKE

The communication before you actually start could be better and it can take a long time to be assigned a dorm.
