Kaliyah Jordan

"I’m from a super small town close to Americus, so I’ve always appreciated the feeling of a close-knit community. I knew I wanted to have a similar experience in college, and GSW always seemed like the right choice."

DeShaun Simmons

English

"I chose GSW because I wanted to experience college away from home. I loved the atmosphere of campus life and the fact that class sizes were small, which meant that I could connect better with my professors."

Avondre'a "Dre'a" Singleton

"The relationships built, the opportunities afforded, and the hands-on experiences at GSW have not only made the journey worthwhile, but they have also equipped me with the knowledge and skills I need to succeed."

Noah Roberts

History

"I chose to attend GSW because of the fantastic baseball program that we have here. The facilities and the winning culture made it an amazing place to continue my education. Being able to continue my education in history is another reason why GSW was the perfect fit for me."

Trinity Daniels McNear

Visual Arts

"I chose my major because I’ve always loved art. As a kid, I would be painting and drawing in my free time. Through the art program, I have learned that I enjoy creating 3D art and sculpture."

Amir Middleton

"I chose to attend GSW because of that small-town feel. We have such a tight-knit community, no matter where you go on campus you will always run into somebody you know. I never feel alone, and I always know there are people that are there for me when I need them."
