Arkansas Tech University Reviews
Rating 3.81 out of 5 1,138 reviews
I love the atmosphere of campus, and I love my professors, and how talented and determined each and every one of them are to help me succeed and be the best student/human that I can be. One thing that I would like to see change is the current housing issues that we experience. The hardest part of having to live on campus is the fact that most of the dorms are disgusting, and even the ones that are more expensive, and supposedly better to live in, rarely get cleaned, and it just becomes an almost unsafe environment to exist in when it comes to the public facilities.
I love Arkansas Tech! I took online classes in high school through them and I loved it. I love the overall vibe and I also love the classes. They are the perfect amount of challenging and manageable. The other students are great and I have an on campus job that I love. I plan to stay all four years!
I transferred to Arkansas Tech University in the Spring of 2024. The university is beautiful, and the professors and staff are incredibly kind. I have loved my time here at ATU so far. I have made so many friends and the community here is amazing.
