The Appalachian Experience

Ever wonder what it is like to be an Appalachian State University student? From the day a new student moves to Boone to the day he/she graduates--and all the excitement, challenges, and life-changing experiences in between--this film captures the full range of the Appalachian student experience. While you watch, imagine yourself at Appalachian.
The Appalachian Experience is shown to visiting students and families as part of our campus tour. During the tour, visitors meet with Admissions representatives to learn about our academic programs, the admissions process; and take a walking tour led by a student ambassador. If you haven't visited Appalachian State University yet, make plans to visit us soon! (visit.appstate.edu)
As the premier, public undergraduate institution in the state of North Carolina, Appalachian State University prepares students to lead purposeful lives as global citizens who understand and engage their responsibilities in creating a sustainable future for all. The Appalachian Experience promotes a spirit of inclusion that brings people together in inspiring ways to acquire and create knowledge, to grow holistically, to act with passion and determination, and to embrace diversity and difference. Located in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Appalachian is one of 17 campuses in the University of North Carolina System. Appalachian enrolls more than 19,000 students, has a low student-to-faculty ratio and offers more than 150 undergraduate and graduate majors.

One doesn't know the true awesomeness of App until one attends!

[@ddyslilangels]

Okay, can I just say that I really want to go here now. lol. -Claire

[@deadfishthesecond]

I went to App from 2003-2007, would love to do it all over again but this time get a degree that is worth something.

[@backwoodsbirdie]

+Ryan Lamb How hard is it to get in?

[@deadfishthesecond]

I scored a 1240 on my SAT in 2003 and made A's and B's in High School with no extra curricular activities to speak of. Basically, if you are mildly intelligent, they will take you.

[@GreenGoblinDaughter]

What degree did you get that wasn’t worth something?

[@Phriendship]

I am so ready for this.

[@TheBrothersBlue]

The dude at the end gave a look like "yeah I dont know this lady"

[@DavidSSabb]

Watch out for Chemistry. You might think that video was sped up, but it wasn't.

[@wuilmanvanegas649]

I already was there, and it was a terrific experience. The campus is so beautiful. Teachers are so friendly. It is a pitty I spent only two months. Hopefully, I think about going back to BOONE.

Above a 3.5 I can't really remember the exact number.

[@iceaxe56]

Do only weed growers come out of here--any drs or lawyers-oh i forgot environmentalists like we need more of those

[@SuperPowers81]

well if you wanna get technical no one comes out a Doctor or Lawyer with just four years of schooling, usually you need masters and doctorate work
