Hear It From Other Eagles
Students from metro Atlanta share what they found at Georgia Southern.
“My time at Georgia Southern University has been nothing short of incredible. The support and encouragement I have received from faculty and peers have profoundly shaped who I am today. This university has given me the knowledge, confidence, and inspiration to pursue my dream of becoming an educator.”
Helene Rosen
Atlanta, GA · Secondary Education
“Georgia Southern is an incredible university, and I’m thrilled to have chosen to attend. It’s a community of support, resilience, and the ability to soar like an eagle in the sky.”
Seun Abiola
Morrow, GA · B.S. Public Health, Senior
“What stands out most to me at Georgia Southern is how different it is from other schools. I transferred to Southern at the start of the third year of my undergraduate degree, and after two years at a different institution, I’m confident in saying that it’s difficult to find the community that Southern provides, where every member, student or faculty, is dedicated to the holistic preparation of each student for their career. I’m constantly impressed by the lengths of the faculty to foster an environment where growth and creative thinking are prioritized over doing things ‘right,’ and where I can openly make mistakes so I can learn from them. I’ve learned so much at Southern due to this, both about my degree and about life.”
Jason Lambros
Lawrenceville, GA · First year, Master of Music and MBA
