Shorter University Reviews
Rating 3.56 out of 5 514 reviews
My experience at Shorter University as an international student-athlete It was a very enriching experience as a person, athlete and student
I chose shorter university because of its small class sized numbers creating a more one on one feel with professors. I also liked the message they are trying to teach with gods word, its a very opening and welcoming environment. the second I walked into shorter university on my campus tour I felt a sense of home, immediately I knew that this was the place I was meant to be and the place God wants me to be. The day I got accepted was easily the greatest day of my life, during my senior year I felt as if I had, had a giant weight lifted off of my shoulders. As I was getting lead by God in the correct direction of the way of life he wants and envisioned me to have and live out
It is very expensive to go to. The facilities and the educative curriculum do not make up for the tuition cost. The university needs serious rehabbing.
