University of Minnesota-Twin Cities Top Questions

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about University of Minnesota-Twin Cities?

Danielle

I feel a sense of pride talking about how small my class size was in school. I loved being able to know everyone in my class and being close with majority of them. I also like to brag about all of the class activities that we would do for student council and national honor society, and how fun homecoming, varsity games, and being involved in any extra curricular was a great experience.

Kaley

How much fun I have learning and going to class and how much fun I have outside of class.

Jamie

No matter the size of campus you can make it as small or as large as you want. Getting involved in one of the numerous clubs helps you become closer and familarize yourself with people who have the same interests. Since the school is in the city, it is easy to jump on a city bus or the lightrail and head to places like Mall of America, or Como Zoo. Partly because of the large size after school work, you are sure to never be bored.

Al

The physics, mathematic, and statistics departments and the courses associated with each department and how much I learn from each course. The social activities that can be done around the area, such as snow related activities, sky diving, scuba diving, and other water related activities. The beautiful surroundings of the area around the campus with the many parks and various bike paths.

Marci

I often brag about the diversity and the sense of community in each of the colleges. There are so many ways of getting involved whether it is volunteering or getting an on campus job.

Amy

Not really much of a braggart. Though I am proud to be accepted at such a prestigious University.

Claudia

How cool some of my classes/professors are: for example, I had a freshman seminar called "My Other Car is a Bicycle," which was about urban bike commuting.

Courtney

I brag most about the location of my school. We are in a large city and there is a lot to do and there are many job opportunities.

Casey

It has the resources and opportunities of a huge school, but when you get involved it feels like a much smaller community. It's the best of both worlds. The location is also ideal both for social and career opportunities.

Julie

I do not brag to my friends about my school. I simply tell them that it is a good school and could provide an individual with a good education due to the resources available to the students and the diversity.
