The best thing about the University of Rhode Island is that is has a great program for the major of my choice: Fisheries Technology. It was one of the first schools in the country to have this program and i have heard nothing but great things about it.

The best thing about URI is its location. It is about 15 minutes away from beaches, 40 minutes away from Providence, 30 minutes away from Newport, and a few hours away from New York City or mountains in Vermont and New Hampshire. The University is located in a small town, but a student can easily and quickly access a variety of different locations and landscapes.

The best things about the University of Rhode Island are the professors. Most of the professors are very well informed in their field of study and are very helpful. Most of the classes I have taken at URI I have actually found fun. The professors are very engaging and make learning the material an entertaining experience, for the most part.

I loved the friends I made and the fact it was by the ocean.

The best thing about The University of Rhode Island is the beautiful campus. The campus is located in Kingston and the large stone building add character to the campus. The campus is well manicured and relatively litter-free. The students take pride in their school and choose not to dirty the campus by littering.
Amanda
The best thing about this school would have to be the learning atmosphere. I feel as though I can really concentrate and excel at the University of Rhode Island. Most of the people here are very nice and willing to help.

The best thing about my school is the variety of programs available. There are several groups that organize concerts and other entertainment and a wide variety of student organizations to participate in. Greek life is present as well as several professional fraternities. Apart from satisfying interests, my school offers many resources to help students succeed in school and afterward. There is an entire building devoted to "University College" which offers tutors, academic advising, and information on college success. Furthermore, there are frequently resume workshops, career panels, and career fairs to help students find and secure jobs that they will love.

The best thing about my school is the welcome-ness of it. If you need help here is always someone there to help, whether it be financially, health wise, or just academically. The faculity and students there are just very wiling to help, and everyone is social and engaging people.
