Does anybody know Valdosta state university in GA?.?

Question

I am a prospective international student from Japan.

Answer 1

I have a friend that lives in Valdosta, GA... I suggest checking out: http://www.valdosta.edu/ or check facebook.com for people that attended there and maybe you can get their input on it. Good luck!

Answer 2

I formerly taught in the Georgia University System. Valdosta State is a medium-sized college which received university status a few years ago. Valdosta is located in the south-southeast portion of Georgia. One of my former faculty co-workers taught there. Being a smaller college, you would receive better attention from the faculty than you would at, say, the University of Georgia (where I received my first Ph.D. degree). On the downside, Valdosta does not have a large Asian community aside from students, so you might be a little lonely. When I taught at Bainbridge College (just west of Valdosta) in the 1980s, my wife was one of only two Asians in the entire town. Valdosta is a little bigger, but you won't find a lot of Japanese there. I think you would like the university and area, with that one proviso. Good luck on your further education!

Answer 3

Yeah, it's still there, I'm pretty sure. As an undergrad at Auburn University (1961-66) I played in bands that played jobs over there...why don't u contact the school - we used 2 hafta write 4 a catalog of courses & degrees offered..I'll bet u could phone 'em, or email 'em requesting the same info & have them send u a hard-copy of their catalog. Or maybe they're downloading that data direct 2 u, They probably have a "dot org" (.org) address, as they are a learning institution/ORGANIZATION. It should b easy to get their address w/a search of ur own.
