What makes ETSU a great choice for students?
"ETSU provides so many different opportunities to students interested in all areas of study. It provides a big campus feel in a small college fashion. The faculty and staff are committed to making sure each and every student achieves success on the pathway to their career goals and objectives. Along with the coursework, ETSU wants college to be a memorable time for each student and provides over 200 organizations that encourage student participation to make the university experience as full and rich as possible. I encourage all interested students to take a serious look at the possibilities that ETSU offers. I know I am glad I did and have achieved more than I anticipated as a result."

What makes ETSU a great choice for students?
"At ETSU one can receive all the benefits of larger university while also having smaller classroom settings. Students really have the opportunity to build relationships with faculty and staff. Having over 200 clubs and organizations gives students numerous options to get involved in campus. The involvement on campus of our university’s President, Dr. Noland, is unique in itself. ETSU is continuously growing in size and academic catalog while maintaining its focus on the student body."

What makes ETSU a great choice for students?
"Coming to a place where you may not know anyone can be scary, but the faculty, staff and students at ETSU do nothing less than make sure you feel right at home. With small class sizes of about 23 students, you will not have to worry about feeling like another number. ETSU is so unique just in its history and beauty alone. With the upcoming football stadium, performing arts center and the renovation of our student center, you will definitely want to be a part of history being made. ETSU is a family-oriented university and its main goal is student success."

What makes ETSU a great choice for students?
"When I talk with students about their future and what they want to do, I get excited to tell them all the things that make ETSU a great place to be. I have a huge passion for this university. Being able to sit down and talk one-on-one about new majors such as engineering and all of our comprehensive health sciences, or talking to the student that has no idea what they want to do when they get here, is the best part of my job! I love being there for them, helping guide these very important decisions, and letting them know that I always have an open door. I think I have the best job ever and I look forward to each day I am blessed with helping shape the future of our students here at ETSU!"

"East Tennessee State University constantly and consistently proves itself as a university that is seeking to improve the quality of life for not only its students, but for the people in an ever-expanding region surrounding its location in Johnson City, Tennessee. ETSU students are given the opportunity to pursue a high-quality education and then provided with an abundance of options to give back to the local, national, and global communities. Whether it be ETSU’s Quillen College of Medicine that is ranked 8th in the nation for its rural medicine training, the first accredited College of Public Health in the State of Tennessee, or Volunteer ETSU’s commitment to community service in our region, ETSU students are constantly equipped to help improve the quality of life for others that begins right here on our beautiful campus. With all that being said, ETSU makes for a great opportunity for students to not only earn that treasured, high-quality college degree, but also to gain the knowledge and experience needed to be a productive, successful, and caring person stepping out into the global community and workforce."

What makes ETSU a great choice for students?
"ETSU is a great choice for students for many reasons. One is location, location, location; ETSU is surround by the beautiful Appalachian mountains and offers a wide array of outdoor activities. Our professors, many of whom are considered the best in their respective fields, do a fantastic job of preparing our students for life after college. Our area is routinely ranked as one of the best small places for business and careers. The staff at ETSU has always been welcoming and helpful to both current and future students. The buzz around our athletic teams and our school spirit is contagious. We know you have a choice but please remember, when you come to ETSU, you’re not just a student, you’re part of a family."

What makes ETSU a great choice for students?
"If you come to ETSU looking to get involved, to develop leadership skills, to challenge yourself to try new things and learn as much as you can, you will have a tremendous college experience here. Don’t assume you’ll have to spend a lot more on a college with a bigger price tag to get big opportunities. ETSU’s tuition is very competitive given the quality and scope of the academic programs, the promotion of arts and culture, the accessibility of global learning experiences, and the knowledge and passion of faculty and staff. Especially as our campus environment grows with state-of-the-art facilities and beautiful green spaces, I don’t think there’s ever been a better time to be a Buccaneer."
