20,000 Auburn students are involved in nearly 600 student organizations on campus. You can find student groups with a huge range of interests such as advanced biofuels, the African Students Association, Greek societies, Women in Science and the Auburn Marching Band — organizations focused on athletics, the arts, culture, outdoor adventure, faith, service, professional development, networking and so much more. Through Student Involvement, the university supports students so they can create, organize, lead, finance and advertise the organizations they care about as well as track their own involvement and growth.

Students can participate in more than 40 clubs and intramural sports, plus enjoy the amenities offered at the Recreation and Wellness Center, named one of the "Coolest College Recreation Centers in America," by Men's Health magazine. The center has two 50-foot climbing towers, a bouldering wall, a 1/3-mile corkscrew track and a leisure pool.

The university offers 24 residence halls in seven areas, housing 4,800 on-campus residents in suite-style living arrangements or double occupancy rooms. Dining preferences include national restaurants, like Chick-fil-A and Starbucks, as well as convenient food trucks which offer local favorites. Choices range from vegan to meat and potatoes and gluten free, meeting a variety of dietary needs and tastes.

T wo things are typical of the average Auburn student: they're the sort "who would say 'hello' walking along the concourse to class," and they're also filled with "so much school spirit" that some might consider them to be "highly obsessed with football." Many students hail from Alabama and are described as both "friendly" and loyal: "Alabama students love Alabama football; Auburn students love Auburn." This devotion lays a strong foundation in which even the meekest voice "can cause tangible change" knowing that "the Auburn Family has your back." The certainty of support makes Auburn a "welcoming place" where any student "would lend a hand in a time of need."

Student input is "very respected" at Auburn, so the "Old South small town feeling" of campus life has an easy flow. The facilities themselves, like the recreation center, are "amazing" and there's a "good food atmosphere in the community." There's also a nearby state park that provides a fun respite from university life (as do the nearby cities of Birmingham and Atlanta), and the city of Auburn "has a safe downtown area where students can go to bars" on weekends as well. Extracurricular activities abound with more than 300 student organizations, and Greek life is popular as well, though students say that "it's definitely possible to fit in without being a part of Greek life." Moreover, attendees have direct input in the abundant campus offerings, as the Student Government Association "is very strong at Auburn" and "student involvement is high." And so far as participation goes, everybody loves Aubie the Tiger-"Football Saturdays at Auburn are second to none"-which means that the university's legendary athletics "drive a ton of campus life and help unite the student body."

The University Career Center offers numerous resources to help students explore career paths, land internships, and secure placements. These services include mock interviews, workshops, job fairs, and career assessments, and the center even has a Campus Career Closet to loan professional attire to students. The school’s “size, location, and overall culture are all strengths,” and it prides itself on flipped classrooms, in which learning takes place outside of the classroom and student activities take place within. That means “lecture videos are watched as homework, and homework is done in class with support of teacher and peers.” The “access to external opportunities” such as study abroad, internships, co-ops, and extracurricular activities provide a foundational experience for students to flesh out their résumé, so “if you want good academics and good chances, Auburn is a great school.”
