A person who doesnt like the city environment

There is no person that should not attend this school. The university is one of the most versitale and diverse places I have ever been involved with. If there was a certain category of people that should not attend Akron, I would say that lazy people would be the most uncomfortable. Akron is a lot of work and is not a walk in the park.

I am a veteran, I have one year left on my enlistment contract and I also work 40 hours a week while taking 15-18 credit hours. I've maintained a GPA of over 3.3 for 3 years. So I believe that a lazy, unmotivated person should not waste their time here. There are those kind of people at Akron, but they usually drop out after their 3rd or 4th semester.

Someone what likes a large student population but not much green space and in a city

A person that enjoys a medium sized campus in a large city. Great school for engineering and other mathematics or science majors.
