Austin Peay State University

From what I could see . The college seem well maintained, clean and organized. Went to drop my Granddaughter off from the holiday break. Her dorm was modern and well maintained also. Its located around a lot of retail business that's walking distance for the students.

They do not care about their students. Faculty are below par. Student benefits for the money are abysmal. Save yourself the heartache and go to East Tennessee State University. They are better in every sense of the word and every measurable quality. APSU is terrible.

I attended one semester here while playing volleyball for them in fall of 2024. I decided to transfer schools due to not liking the school and wanted to switch volleyball programs. I withdrew from the university, yet they are continuing to charge me for an entire semester I never attended. I have been in contact with them multiple times trying to figure out what to do and the staff has not been very kind. I gave up and tried to just enroll in a payment plan, and was told that I must pay in full. Needless to say I am a broke college student and do not have 2,000 dollars just lying around. I understand that ultimately it is a buisness and they want their money, but the staff and the university lack empathy and ultimately see students as just number signs. I would warn any seniors or juniors in highschool to not attend APSU ESPECIALLY if they are having to pay for college themselves. I am very disappointed in this school because I remember just how excited I was to attend. Save yourself the trouble and attend a different school.

Love the frisbee experience and landscape. Lots of friends to make. 10/10.

Most people in customer service wherever you call are unprofessional , they act annoyed and they always transfer you to someone else to avoid talking to you. Self registration is complicated. D2L is horrible, I had so many issues with it and called tech support, they said they didn’t know and the professor said it was my responsibility. How does that make sense. APSU needs to update their hubris programs and allow to incorporate AI tools to research to not fall behind. I refuse to use honor-lock in some of the classes since it’s a violation of privacy.

Was iffy about this place, coming from NYC and dealing with CUNY administration clowns, but since they hired a new Director of Student Life and Engagement I've really heard current students change their tune. The College of Business has really great folks too. I ended up studying Biomedical Data Science instead which was simply more exciting for me, but I will always treasure my time at APSU especially the ANTS Center. The T-shirt they gave me eventually became too small so I gave it away (probably because I didn't have all the free chicken Alfredo and Bojangles like before lolz). The last thing I will say is there seems to be a big pay discrepancy regarding how much women are paid there versus men, but there's always room for redemption:). Happy America day y'all!

APSU and the Veterans representative screwed me over and it's despicable what they did to me. I was supposed to get Chapter 33 benefits, but a 15 year window was closed by a few months. I am not a Veterans counselor and didn't even know there was such a window existed. They told me everything would be good,but the VA decided to decline my Chapter 33. Now I'm stuck with a bill I can't afford. What the reps should have done was warned me about a expiration. I would have waited for the processing before attending had I known what I know now,but they were just worried about getting pen on paper and sticking me with the bill. Because of this experience I've gotten sick and stressed. I wouldn't have put off work had I known both the VA and APSU were gonna do this to me. They pretend that they care about Vets,but they just want the money. I will be filing this complaint with as many people that will listen.

Updated: I’m on the admission process and by far not a good impression. I’m starting to rethink if I should take another route. They won’t reply to simple emails to help the students out during the admission process. You have to call in order to get a response to your questions. That gives me the impression that they don’t care much about students. When you call to get an answer to a simple question they have a hard time to give you that answer. Only two people that I have spoke with have been helpful and able to respond to my questions. What is so hard to respond an email for a student that is already spending money for admissions and have questions. Update: This people in admissions are the worst. After I completed all off the steps and provided them with all of the documents they needed out of nowhere they added two other things that weren’t there at all. When I was going to apply for tuition the first thing that came up on the website was that there are complaints against this college, so aside from the bad reviews here and my bad experience on top of that there is that. I take this as a sign to steer away from this college. Better now than latter. Thank you for wasting my time and money.

A lively and family oriented campus environment. student life has a very active presence here which is a great for campus morale.

Retirement Goal #1; I just wanted to get my Doctorate, but I got rejected today from Austin Peay State University for counseling psychology with military families and Veterans. I was told that I am perfectly capable, that they have nothing but confidence in me completing the program, and that I'm a good fit. Still, I bombed my interview, didn't call them doctors, and made jokes. I was a team player and facilitated my co-applicant and his ability to give answers and look smart, but they called me self-deprecating. All I wanted to do was boost him up and also display that I was not a cocky idiot and that I was a team player. I am not totally discouraged, but Austin Peay will never be a good fit for me if the decision is not to accept a perfectly good-fitting candidate because they didn't say or do what they expected of a civilian in academia.

APSU has a beautiful campus and friendly staff. Everyone has your best interest in mind. I am a proud Alumni and often take my students to tour the campus. Whatever program you can imagine you can possibly find it here. Please take time to visit or schedule a campus tour

Public university in Clarksville Tennessee Austin Peay is reminiscent of many colleges to the US with a beautiful brick reminds me of Pittsburgh is Pitt State up in Pittsburg Kansas OSU in Stillwater and Elon University in North Carolina beautiful buildings and it's the home of the governors football team

My disclaimer on this review...this is solely based on aesthetics, as I've never been a student here. As a visitor to the campus, during the summer, I was very impressed with it. My son was taking part in a 3v3 soccer tournament put on by Austin Peay's girls' soccer team, as a fundraiser. I don't know what I was expecting, but it wasn't what I found. I was really impressed by the campus...I thought it was beautiful. It looked like a great-sized school, as well. I'd love to have an opportunity to attend a baseball game there...the stadium looked fantastic. Leaving there, I felt like this was a campus we should have our son look into, research and maybe visit in a few years when he is choosing a college. The "cover of this book" made me want to look further!

Tuition has been increasing steadily every year. Over 25% tuition hikes in the last four years alone. Also has "free speech zone" and doesn't allow students to exercise freedom of speech or freedom of assembly without first jumping through a bunch of buerocratic hoops and filling out paperwork.

I really enjoyed being a student at APSU. I received my BFA with a concentration in Graphic Design. One thing I really liked about this school is all the artist lectures they had to help give insight in future careers and help with art inspiration. The teachers were there to help and wanted to see students succeed. I'm glad I got to be a part of this school.

It has been a month and I still cannot get a transcript from them to attend another school and heaven forbid you get ahold of the registrar's office it seems they are never there or do not want to talk to you. This school seems veteran friendly but the only thing they are friendly to is their GI Bill and money. I attended this school for a year and a half and will NEVER come back.

Attended undergraduate and graduate school here. Transferred from another Tennessee public university- amazing the difference between the two. APSU's faculty and staff are quick to help/assist students. Also, in a great location convenient to Nashville!
