What kind of person should not attend The University of Texas at Austin?

Daniel

A person shouldn't attend UT if they're lazy and are not motivated to get a good education. UT is a very difficult and hardworking university, fit for those who have worked hard in order to get high GPA's and good grades. If you're one of the following: a "thug", a wannabe "gangster", person who thinks have "swag", or someone that's just plain lazy, then you're going to have a hard time here in Longhorn country. So I would suggest, go home and be the "special" kind of individuals you are.

In the booming city of Austin, a very loud, social and exciting campus lies. For those who are quiet, reserved and timid, this might not be the place for you! The University of Texas at Austin is a very friendly place with kind students and faculty, but if you lack communication skills it would be better if you try your luck at a smaller campus.

Students shouldn't attend this school if they are not commited to working hard. UT at Austin is a top school in the country, so the work load may be large and difficult depending on the major. Students also shouldn't attend if they are looking for a smaller school. While there are many possibilities to join clubs and "shrink the school," it doesn't change the fact that UT is such a large school.

If you're an open minded student, then UT is the perfect school for you. Otherwise, don't bother. The university stresses discovery and opportunities. No lazy or pessimistic person would fit in such a traditonal foundation. You have to be willing to work hard, have big dreams, and have the courage to chase them. UT is no school for slackers. It takes dedication to be the good student and nothing less of it.
