Someone who should attend this school should be very open minded and outgoing in my opinion. I feel that going to a big school is a huge change and it takes a lot of confidence and drive. It also can be intimidating because of how large of a population is held here. It is a great experience to meet so many new people and also to experience the great diversity within the population.

There is room for any kind of person here. It is a state school that has opportunities for really anyone looking to go into almost any field. Their journalism school is of course reknown throughout the nation, but the medical and veterinary schools are fantastic too, as well as the research that goes on in the life and physical sciences. That is the main appeal of this place, in my mind, that though you will find a lot of people following you in your field, there will be just as many if not more, in other fields beside you.

Any student who loves making new friends everyday. I've never met a stranger on the Mizzou campus, and that's one main reason I love this school. The Journalism School is one of the best within the country, and ranks very highly among Harvard, and Yale. Sinclair School of Nursing is where I'm attending in the Fall of 2011 and it is a school that has a heart that will not fit through the doors. The advisors are more than willing to help you, on their time, yours or off campus; a question does not go unanswered.

A prospective student for MU should be one who is willing to work hard to earn their grades the classes aren't overbearring but they are very challenging. They should also be able to manage their time wisely. There are lots of activities to participate in and clubs/organizations that are a lot of fun but it does require alot of time.

People that are determined to be succssful in the world should attend for this school. This college prepares students to become successful in the world, so the student much be willing to givev their all into what they actually want to do in life.

Any kind of person can attend this school. People who like strong school spirit, football games, and drinking will especially like it. Although serious students, i.e. pre-med, pre-vet students can also find fun things to do. It's really just a choice about what you want to participate in and what you don't. There are a lot of pretty areas around campus and the city to spend time outside if you like that. Downtown is also really cute.

Mizzou is a great school for students who have really good study skills and want to be challeged academically. It is great for meeting new friends and immersing yourself in new cultures. Mizzou is also great for getting involved in new things and discovering yourself.

I don't think there is a way to piegon hole the "type" of person that should attend this school. I think anyone who is interested in and education with a lots of opportunity for social life should attend this school. I would encourage anyone to come to this school. We could use some more diversity, so the more "types" of people, the better.
Chelsea
Anyone who wants an excellent education combined with a fun social atomsphere should attend University of Missouri at Columbia. Students should be determined and hard working because Mizzou is tough, but very worth it.
