Nate Cress The SAGU experience is one you cant forget. SAGU is full of passionate people going after the call of God on their life whether thats in ministry or in business. The professors are phenomenal (at least the majority of them, but we all have our opinions). Dont get me wrong. SAGU has an ugly side too, but it really depends on the student. If you want to succeed at Southwestern, youll find a great group of people to help you along the way. If you want to go here just to party and hangout with friends that just happen to go here, Id say save your money. This school is too pricey to just throw your education out the window.
As far as dorms go, personally, I suggest Guynes. Youll find a whole bunch of people who will disagree with me on that though. Guynes 2nd floor was where I stayed. Kendrick is great for the close nit girls who want to escape for the guys for a bit. Savell tends to be the Pastoral Majors group, although that may have changed. The newer dorms are beautiful and very private (I never really visited them much).
As a note: SAGU can get expensive. If you are a freshman, I suggest going to a community college for at least the first year if not the first two years of your college education. This will dramatically help with cost. Dont worry about "getting the college experience" either. Youll have plenty of time to get the "college experience" after getting your basics out of the way.
Another great way to save: SAGU has agreed to accept DSOM students who have completed their Berean courses and received credentials from the AG up to 9 credit hours per completed year. Thats up to 27 credit hours. DSOM costs about $1200 per year, so the investment is about $3600 for 27 credit hours. Thats not too bad. You should call about this to get all the details though.
There are always scholarships and grants to help you along the way.

David Andrés Calvete Beltrán I go to SAGU and trust me: if you do not have money to waste, please PLEASE do not attend this school.
They only care about money. Hidden charges, late fee charges for couple of cents, professors that treat students unfairly and poorly.
Environment is great, but not worth it for all the money you have to blast each semester. They even charge you a fee of $60.00 just so you can pay your school bill monthly, in other words, you are paying them TO PAY THWM.
If you are asking why I go to this school? I DO NOT HAVE ANY OTHER OPTION SINCE I AM AN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT.
Let me tell you something that happened last semester: I play soccer here and we went to NATIONALS last year. Could you believe this expensive school that charges for EVERYTHING did not pay for our trip/housing/food, and us the soccer players had to raise money by ourselves to cover all the expenses?
Yeah, the school does not even take care of its own programs. Please do not give business to this school.

Y. J. Hinton Professors seem to want whats best for the students but the administration is only worried about money. Most Colleges have sayings that say "My money and my child goes there, but the saying for SAGU should be "My money and the Governments money goes to SAGU but my child doesnt." They have deceptive, discriminating practices some are even flat out dishonest. They will make promises they dont even try to keep at their Campus Days, so dont be taken in by their deceiving words. Before you send your children to SAGU research how much money they keep when the students arent there and how they hold on to the money collecting interest. Please feel free to contact me and I will let you know everything they did and show you some of their deceptive practices. There are many more Christian Colleges that truly operate under Christian Values and help the students in any way they can, that arent more worried about your money than the students. Money is the root of all evil.
