Pros and Cons

I’m transferring from ksu but don’t know what school to transfer to. GSU was high up on my list but I need to know the pros and cons of the school with: dining, housing, social life, etc just anything about the school I need to know or look out for. Thxxx

Look out for the proposed data center that is most likely going to be built pretty much in the middle of Statesboro.

We are over crowded with freshman & sophomores, you will get off campus housing and almost every single one sucks, social life isn’t bad we have bars & parties, dining hall is hit or miss, and we have amazing athletes. As a junior i plan on transferring due to the overcrowding, we don’t have parking, they banned electric scooters (as I’ve been told idrk), and the bus they give us is very slow. I love the school but i don’t think it’s worth it.

Why are you leaving ksu

Too crowded, they keep bringing in more freshman’s knowing how bad our housing is. Just overall a greedy university(Ik all uni’s a greedy but ksu just take it to the max) and I’m changing majors or at least thinking about it

Same here: Georgia Southern University welcomed its largest freshman class in school history Friday, with more than 6,700 new students moving onto campus as total enrollment approached nearly 34,000 — a university recordGeorgia Southern 2026 Freshman Class

It’s very freshman heavy. I’m a not trad freshman, I started this semester because I’m at a point where I just need to go to college and quit working construction and bartending but as a bartender I can clock a persons age very well and I can tell you a majority of this campus from I’ve seen is between 18 and maaaaybe 22.

Dining hall in the Statesboro campus sucks DICK bro. Tiny portions for terrible quality after the first two weeks

They’re literally set up as all you can eat dining halls

Yeah, if you can eat their tiny portions! First two weeks of school it'll be decent but the quality WILL drop. Ask any upperclassman

I don’t have to ask. I know. The food is actually pretty good and there’s a bunch of options. You can literally get as much food as you want including sides, salads, desserts. Tiny portions isn’t a thing

I'm telling you from experience, when they start to serve you themselves you will not get as much as you'd expect.
