Hail To Pitt!

A fantastic city university that is dedicated to its students success and betterment.

It's small enough that nothing is more than a 20 minute walk away. Lower campus has 2 main streets (forbes and fifth avenue) that run parallel to each other and have most of the things you'll need. Upper campus is a 5-10 minute walk upwards (campus is pretty hilly) and is more suburban. It has some dorms and athletic buildings. (I use the word campus, but keep in mind it's not a closed campus. Thus, while there is a disproportionate amount of academic buildings and college kids, there are still typical businesses and normal people walking around, especially hospital employees.) Maybe the best way to see what campus looks like (aside from actually visiting) is using google earth and taking a virtual tour using street view. Some areas might be a little outdated, but it's a great way to walk around campus virtually.

Does not care about students.

My school is very open-minded, dedicated, inclusive

University of Pittsburgh is a fantastic experience.

A great college for students interested in a liberal arts education or a specialized degree from one of the schools: School of Nursing, Business etc.

The University of Pittsburgh's main campus is very spread out over Oakland, which is why the city of Oakland is referred to as "our campus".
