I don't believe in judging the kind of person that shouldn’t attend this school, simply because school can change people. Who am I or anyone to say or decide what kind of person shouldn’t have the same opportunity to go this school. It's not up to us to decide or prejudge someone; it's up to that individual to decide whether he is someone of value not for the school but for him to pursue a career to become someone better in life.

Because UTEP's student body is quite diverse, there are few people who wouldn't find at least a small niche within UTEP. From athletes to bookworms, there's something for everyone. So, really, the only kind of person who shouldn't attend UTEP is one who is not truly dedicated to learning and improving themselves and their communities.

I would personally encourage every student out there to attend UTEP, but if they are the sort of students that are not looking into college in a academic point of view, then try to avoid UTEP. El Paso is a calm city with little nightlife. So if just going to school isnt your thing, try another school.

Francisco

The kind of person that is here for the social life and does not have any sense of respect for the profession.

I would recommend that students that don't perform well in large learning environments (meaning high occupancy courses) seek their education at a smaller, private university. A private university I think would allow for a more intimate learning experience, in which the student would gain a more individual sense of the education being presented to them. Seldom being in classes less that 75 individuals, I find it more difficult (albeit not impossible) to establish a good relationship right the professor.

There is no specific type of student that should not attend my University. College is an opportunity given to all people and there is no one who should be denied that right. The University of Texas at El Paso is welcome to all students that are willing and trying to complete a college education. I believe there is no classification as to who and who cannot go to any college university. If there is the will power and determination in any human being they should be allowed to go to the college of their choosing.

To come to UTEP, you have to be open-minded. You have to be willing to interact with other people, not just your “own”. There are so many different types of ethnicities, so many different sororities, and even more, extreme variety of ages on students. Anyone who comes to UTEP can be a UTEP Miner, they only need to allow themselves to truly be one.

After I graduated from high school, I was worried what the new chapter of my life would be like. Since I came from a foreign country I thought adapting to a culture would be difficult, but instead the people around me made it enjoyable, and today I call each one of them my friend. The students in the University of Texas at El Paso are competitive to be among the top students in the nation, they care for other and help them with a smile, and they are interested to be part of the solution to the problems we face.

Andrea

Any kind of person should attend UTEP. It is a campus full of very open minded, not judgemental and very frendly people. No one discriminates any one based on their religion, gender, sexual orientation and/or personality. It really is a very amazing school, other than if their degree is not available I believe everyone and anyone who wants should attend.

Someone who is conservative, intolerant, unable to attend class regularly, and has very high expectations of fellow students should not attend this school
