University of New Hampshire-Main Campus Top Questions

There is a lot of school pride on campus, but that seems to get in the way of an education for individuals who are not determined. That being said, if you are attending UNH to obtain a degree and become educated, it is a great experience and wonderful learning environment. There is a lot of partying on campus, however, if you can balance tasks and priorities correctly you will be rewarded academically and socially.

I belive that having the chance to work in a hands on environment was very beneficial. It caters to a different type of learning style. It was a mixtre of both classroom time and hands on activites.

The University of New Hampshire is a very student friendly school. The campus is very easy to get around and if you happen to get lost or need to know where you are going , any of the students walking around would be more than willing to help direct you. The professors at the University are also extremly helpful and truly care about your success as a student. They are always available during their office hours and more than willing to help you succeed.

The best asset that the University of New Hampshire campus has for me is a wide variety of new people to meet. I came from a smaller high school with only 100 in my graduating class, and going to a division 1 college has helped me tremendously. By meeting/being exposed to so many new people I've learned better social skills and have become more accepting of the differences in people.

I think that the best part of UNH is it's great ROTC program. The Air Force ROTC detachment 375 is considered one of the best in the nation and is extremely effective in teaching leadership as well as exposing it's cadets to the military lifestyle and instilling within them a sense of integrity, service and excellance. Last I checked, they were number five in the nation regarding physical training scores and well on thir way to becoming the best. All of this along with the great cadre members make this program my favorite part of going to school.

The professors willingness to help and encourage the students to do the bast they can and to follow their desires. If a student is willing to reach out the them, the professors will do all they can to help them.

The best thing about UNH is the academics available. Between the diversity of majors and unique general education classes students can pick what they are interested in learning about. Many of the majors give you experience in what you want to do. There are internships for business majors, a farm for pre-vet majors, a clinic for speech pathology majors, a biology lab, etc.

I've seen a professor riding around on a unicycle (occasionally juggling) casually throughout the day.

The best thing about UNH is that there are so many different classes offfered. If I have an interest in a certain area their is usually a class that I can be in that will let me fufill me interest. Especially in psychology there are so many different classes offered for me to choose from so I am able to narrow down what area of study I want to go into later on. The classes are offered at different times too which is very convienent.

Available options of majors, clubs, classes, etc.

I love the small-town feel even though it's a larger university. It definitely doesn't feel like there are 12,000 people on campus! I like that UNH isn't located in a big city, it's a relaxing environment; the town revolves around the university but there's still a lot going on in Durham. It's also close to Portsmouth, NH, Boston, and Maine- and we have Amtrak service that connects to all those points! Great opportunities to travel :)

The tight community, and the graduate school.

The campus itself at UNH is remarkable. The academic buildings, dining halls, residence halls, and grassy lawns truly exhibit the essence of New England university life. The campus is beautiful and welcoming, and it doesn't take too long to get the lay of the land.

The size of the univeristy and the professor student interaction. The university is in a small town, you really get the full college experience here at UNH, it is very close to Boston and very close to maine, lakes region, mountains and the beaches. Since the school is not too large, you get a chance to interact with your professor. All professors know who you are, you are not just anothre number in the book.

The best thing about my school is its reputation. More specifically the Whittemore School of Business and Economics which I am currently enrolled in. The numerous people I have spoken to have either graduated or know someone who has graduated that have great business opportunities after graduation.

The best thing about my school is the atmosphere. My first year I was nervous like most college freshmen but everyone was very friendly and welcoming. I think this is important for any school because you have to be comfortable being there for the next four years or more depending on your major.

The best thing about UNH is the campus. It is a beautiful campus in a great location, less than half an hour away from the NH seacost. We also have a great little downtown with shops just minutes from campus. At the heart of campus we have the Whittemore Center where our 2nd ranked hockey team plays its games.

The best thing about the school that I attend is that most of the people are very laid back and friendly. It is easy to meet nice people and the living communities are really close, I have had great living communities where the dormitories create good friendships.

I got a strong foundation of knowledge while I was at UNH. The feculty prepared me for what was to come as I evolved in my career. It's a smaller state school and you feel like the faculty actually care about your success.
