The school has a great sense of pride. The Golden Lion family is great and act as a family. The city is not the best but the campus is nice and continuing to grow. A great place to earn your degree.

UAPB is at best a below average university. The education you receive at this school is far under what is expected at other universities. Yes, the teachers are generally nice and have time to talk to you, but other than that, the instruction is terrible. School is not challenging and teachers are lazy and have low expectations for students.
