Big Picture

The best thing about UMN is the endless help and availability of opportunities. It is amazing how many people are there to help you succeed and what opportunities can arise. I also enjoy the amount of people because you get to meet so many different people and open yourself up to new experiences.

Academic Life

People are often concerned about the size and having classes be too overwhelming. No matter which college you attend, classes are going to be more difficult and challenge you. I know I definitely had a rude awakening first semester of my freshman year. I tried to get by doing what I did in high school. That's impossible with UMN's science and math classes. They are very difficult and you must be ready to deal with the difficult curriculum and competitive students.

Student Body

There are so many different people on campus. It's wonderful to get to know so many different people and see how they're all connected.
