Prior to applying to my university I did extensive research on it; Reading through a plethora or reviews and opinions, both good and bad, from current students. Due to this I had a general understanding on university life and how current students felt about attending school here. The most notable highlights were it’s a university of Bricks (most of the buildings were made or that reddish colored brick) and that it wasn’t a socially active university. Now as a current student myself, I can say with confidence all these things in indeed true. All in all it’s a relatively drab university and finding things to do both on and off campus is difficult. However, I will say I’ve met some people here that have become some of my closest friends and that’s probably one of the few things I’m grateful for having decided to go here. If you thrive on a social environment I wouldn’t recommend it, but, on the other hand I would given it offers some amazing STEM (especially tech)base courses that aren’t offer at other universities. College is what you make up it, so despite all these thing, you can come here and flourish.
