If you are looking for a small university where you can build strong connections with classmates and professors, Georgian Court is a great choice for you. All of the professors I had were kind, helpful, and truly passionate about the subject they taught. The close knit environment truly makes the school a great place to thrive academically, with so many resources for support. The primary thing I wanted to see changed was more variety within student life and activities. Less students on campus often resulted in less student involvement when it came to clubs and events. At times, this left my peers and I feeling somewhat disconnected and without much school spirit.

Georgian Court is a great university, most especially for its faculty and staff being so welcoming as I am a transfer student from Brookdale and did not know anyone. Professors introduced me to like minded students that I am friends with, on top of being super helpful and leading me to the right direction in learning new things and being able to apply those teachings in my own life and even rub off on others. Which is ultimately priceless.

I would say that Georgian Court is a good school for academics and sports but can work on adding more activities to get there students envovled with eachother and add more stuff to the campus like sports club where people who play sports for the fun of it can play and add a game room with a bunch of games for people to play so that way people can stop being couped up in there dorms all day.
