I was eligible for in-state tuition, which was probably the big selling point. When I toured I absolutely loved it, and I got that "I belong here" feeling. I knew all along that I wanted to attend a really large SEC school.

I only lived in a dorm during my freshman year because it was overpriced. I lived right off campus every other year and loved it. Much cheaper and I could still walk to class. I didn't even have to drive which was great because our parking situation was horrible.

I got a full ride for this college and my brother went there and had a great experience. The theatre department also had a Lord D theatre on campus that we got to collaborate with and participate in shows with.
