Anybody really can. What's important about this school is that it is exactly what you make it. I know people who came here purely to party, and that is what they are doing and plenty of it, especially in the sororities and fraternities. However, if you want to learn as much as you can and get started on research, there are plenty of venues to do that, as long as you are willing to put forth the effort. I'm a sophomore, doing research in what I plan to be my future career. You just have to stay focused.

Being a rather large school, it is easy to fall behind without much notice from anyone. So, if you want to succeed at the University of Tennessee, some self-motivation is required. That isn't to say there is no help, but you have to seek it out. The professors will not baby you and slap your wrist if your grades start slipping. There is also a lot of social activity so it's easy to be distracted. You must be goal-oriented but able to have fun, as well. It is college afterall.

I would suggest this school to an open-minded and outgoing student interested in meeting people and making life-long friends.

UT is a good school for someone who likes people of all types, because there are so many people here. Well rounded students because the campus offers a bunch of clubs and activities for all interests. UT is good for students who want to push themselves in school the programs here are fast paced and hard to get into, you know you will be educated throughly. Students that are interested in sports are encouraged to come but it is not a big deal if that is not your thing. This school is also great for people who like the city.

Everyone can feel comfortable here. You should be somewhat outgoing because it is so big so if you're not a people person it won't be good for you. It's great if you love sports and a big social life and don't mind a large classroom.
Nathan
Someone that enjoys city life. The college is like a city within a larger city. There is always much to do...on campus and surrounding areas. Lots of sports.

In my opinon, a person who is not bery interested in being serious about their studies. Mostly middle class and white describe the student body as a whole. East Tennesseans are the majority, and sometimes it feels like it is the University of Knoxville. West Tennesseans should look closer at Ole Miss if they can afford it. A person can do very well in school with minimal effort (which most students do not give), so if a person is looking for a sky high gpa UT is for you.
