The unique thing about my school is it's location. The University of Nevada is located in the heart of the Truckee Meadows which provides astounding scenery to the west towards the Sierras. It is just a short drive to the wilderness where students can experience hiking trails, skiing, and Lake Tahoe. The University is one of the most beautiful campuses located west of the Mississippi River.

My school is unique because we are a big family. Instead of being the "wolves" we are the wolf pack. We are one big pack striving for knowledge, excitement, and victory.

What is truly unique about the University of Nevada-Reno which is in fact the reason why I chose it, is the fact that it urpasses the expectations most have. Not many people see this school as a great school, especially the Las Vegas natives like myself, but the University of Nevada-Reno offers so many opportunities for students inside and outside of classes. Choosing to attend this university has been one of the best decisions of my life, and I would never choose a different university!

Compared to my last university, this school is much bigger and has a more welcoming campus, which takes your mind away from the fact that you're in a high desert with not much of a city around you, and creates its own little mini-city within the confines of the campus.

Something that is super cool about the University of Nevada is that it is funky. Reno in general in funky. It's my hometown and I love it here. You can walk downtown, and see a concert in the park right on the river with fire dancers one day, and then the next day walk across the street and see a white water kayak competition. Then in the winter, you are 20 minutes from some of the gnarliest skiing in America. It's an awesome environment to live in.

The University of Nevada, Reno was unique to me because of how much they have to offer. The campus is gorgeous and a joy to walk around, the professors are passionate about their jobs, and not only are there many options for classes there are also many time slots offered to take them in.

UNR is small enough to have a lot of interaction between students (you see a lot of the same faces) while still being surrounded by new faces all the time. At UNR, I am able to balance my major (Business Marketing) with extracurriculars as well as stay involved with music and the performing arts, something that is hard to do at a lot of bigger universities.

This school is considered to be the best university in-state.

The area around it extremely diverse which allows scientists and others to enjoy different weather, plants, animals, and scenery at any time of the year. It also allows for many different clubs to be active throughout the year. Also its right next to downtown where there are many shops and events happening everymonth so for those wanting to stay near campus they have just a short walk to enjoy some things that Nevadans only have to offer.

It is very cheap and good quality for the cost.
