What is very unique about The University of Texas at El Paso is that it is filled with diversity. We see people from all over Mexico and other countries as well. What I really liked are the amazing opportunities that international students get. As an international student, for me it is very important to be given the opportunity to work and to apply for scholarships. The University of Texas at El Paso provided me that chance. That is what makes it so special for me; to be given the chance to grow within the United States of America.

Proffesors are there to help you at any time. It is not a big school and some classes can be small and easier to understand.

The school is unique because the campus is located on the side of some hill and part of it is in the hills. Also the architecture of many new buildings is based on some Bhutanese monasteries in the Himalayas because the resemblance of the mountains.

The most unique thing about my school would have to be the architecture. Even though we live in desert area, our school does not the common 'pueblo' look to it. The buildings have a look that comes from Bhutan. Every time that I am at the university I feel as though I am in a different city, I forget that this beautiful place is still in El Paso, Texas.

What I find unique about my school is that we have a strong school spirit and we know exactly where we came from. The majority of the students at UTEP are from here in El Paso or from Juarez. Even though we are divided by a river and a fence, we are still one. We are UTEP and we bleed orange!!!

My school has a large diversity of ethnicities and has thousands of students. It is an alive campus that is always busy. The weather goes along with the architecture of the campus. It is like the details are what make the campus so good. There is always a new spot that you can discover while walking around campus. You feel part of the community and proud to be there. It makes you feel comfortable with your surrounding.
