VCU is the largest University in the state of Virginia. This means large classes, a large campus, and a lot of conflicting opinions. In accordance with these characteristics the university's campus is placed in the city of Richmond, the capitol of Virginia. Looking at these characteritics, ignoring the educational opportunities, any person who does not like being in large groups or having the fast paced life of the city should not attend VCU. If one cannot handle others opinions I do not suggest it either.

VCU is a school for every kind of person. There isn't a type of person that shouldn't attend VCU. VCU has a variaty of people within the campus, this makes the school feel more like the real world. Once your out in the real world its all kinds of people that you have to deal with daily, whether you like it or not. VCU is a very good school to attend to get this type of expierence. Once your done with college, you're thrown out into the real world and have to deal with different people daily.

I believe that everyone has an opportunity to learn and grow from college experience, especially at VCU. Even those that are not culturally aware and suffer from intolerant viewpoints will have the opportunity to mature into a more understanding and open-minded person on this diverse campus. The only person that really shouldn't attend VCU is someone that has no desire to be there, and therefore is preventing someone who actually wants to attend from attending.

A person who should not attend this school is someone who is not serious about their education. You have to be serious about your future to succeed, there are students and teachers around you willing to help but you have to put forth effort to accomplish your goals.

VCU is quickly growing, however many students commute to the campus located in the states capital. Many students live off campus. However, there are new dorms opening every few years to accomodate the growth of the school. The explansion of the school into the surrounding area will soon make this school's campus more appealing.

Honestly I don't believe that there is anyone that shouldn't attend this University. It is a great one. However if they are ones that just want to party, drink and stay out all night it won't be that easy!

I would say a person who is not open minded but this university has the potential to help one's mind bloom into a wonderland of culture. One who is not interested or intrigued by diversity, one who is unwillingly to be open and accepting of people of different ethnicities, from different cultures, from abstract backgrounds. One who does not enjoy creativity or individuality. One who is not looking for an array of friends from an array of places. One who does not believe in love. One who does not believe in change.

Students that only think college is only for social shouldn't be allowed to attend VCU beacuse college is not like that. It is for you to prepare for your future and knowlege.

People who don't like a diversity on their campus would not like my school. It's a big campus which those who don't like walking far would not like. My school feels welcoming though, so anyone who comes here would not feel misplaced. There are a lot of cultural background that you might find your culture not so different.

This school is pretty open to anyone who would want to attend, but I would discourage anyone especially timid or introverted, because it is in a city and you do run into homeless people every once in a while, and the student population is kind of dense and diverse, so if you can't learn to get along with a wide variety of people you wouldn't have a very good time here. I'd also discourage the super cut-throat overachiever students, because while we have a competitive medical and research institution, I feel we're more laid back.
