Bowie State University

The administration in this school is absolutely horrible. So far I've only dealt with "advisement" and the transfer crew but based on these comments, the school has a big issue overall. And they ask you to pay them $120 before you can even see how many credits are transferred over. I already have my bachelors degree. That $120 is a A "commitment fee" - thats what they call it anyway. That honestly should be illegal. At this rate, if i am not allowed to register this week for the classes that i want,... Read More i will not be attending. The school is probably going to get closed down and thats a shame. Blame your admin and whoever runs this.

The school is ok when you want a family feel. You meet so many different people. Very sociable school and plus its a hbcu. Most professors are knowledgeable and want you to succeed.Then you have others that are the opposite. The overall process of getting into the school is draining. You get very discourage and may want to reconsider going here because the administrative staff was highly disorganized (incompetent). Hardly could get in touch with anyone and when you would was given the run around.... Read More No one in the office had the same information or even on the same page. You could never get the proper instructions especially with financial aid/counselors and the student accounts office. Needs better improvement before it deteriorates people from coming to the school! The schools website itself, information in each departments, syllabus, rules/policies, students bull dog connection, etc needs to be all updated.Oh There needs to be straight point of contacts to talk to actual person instead of back and forth through emails. Sometimes making an appointment can delay a student in trying to start classes.
