The University of Alabama Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Emily

We have the quad where we tailgate on before games, as well as the famous Denny Chimes which lights up at night. It has a cute southern feel and is very well kept. It has a lot of personality with all of the huge fraternity houses and sorority row, with the large white columns it adds a homey feel.

The best thing about the University of Alabama is the pride. There is a strong comradery between those who attend the school. High expectations are the only acceptable standard at the university as everyone strives to be better. The university is ranked as one of the top public schools in the nation; and there are plenty of reasons to support that fact. Our academics are very strong, UAPD and the Tuscaloosa Police keep campus safe, and best of all, we have a spectacular campus. I'm proud to attend The University of Alabama and I've made the right schoice.

The academic challenges that are present here have puushed me to become a more effective student and an even more productive memeber of society. Another thing that the college has to offer is multiple opportunities to choose from and to participate in.

Rutland

The UA has made a very large university a small university. Alabama has nearly 30K students but I do not feel like a number. UA offers progrms such as the Blount Initiative, the Honors College, the Fellow's Experience, and other programs and colleges to give a new student the ability to find like-minded people to help with networking, studying, and socializing. UA offers a large university with a small college feel.

The best thing about my school is the size and student population. There are so many people and organizations on campus that it is hard to nnot find some kind of activity to participate in. There next, best thing besides the many resources for academic purpsoes is of course the football. You can not beat the way Tuscaloosa feels on a Alabama game day.

Katherine

The wide variety of people on the campus. There are so many different people from all over the country/world that you are sure to find a great group of friends. Its really easy to find people who have similar interests with all of the different campus groups and activities. The staff is really really supportive. All of the professors really want you to succeed and they want to help you as much as they can. There are also a lot of resources here for future careers.

Casey

I believe the best thing about my school is the true sense of community it has. No matter where you are or what you are doing, there is always someone close by who is more than willing to help. Also, at my school there are so many adults that have truly made great mentors for me and I have only been here for about a semester and a half. It's truly amazing how tightly bound the members of the Alabama community are regardless of how different each of our backgrounds are.

Mykia

I would have to say the best thing about my school is the school itself as a whole. The students, professors, and even the atmosphere make you feel right at home. Everyone fits in somewhere, no one is alone.

Casey

I love the tradition at Alabama. Not only with the football team, but also with the history of the campus and the quest for academic excellence.
