University of Alabama at Birmingham Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Namrata

School is a wonderful place, because everyone here is willing to help during any time of the day.

Sungyan

There's nothing that is really outstanding at this school. Everything is just up to par. There isn't even a campus - the school is basically blocks of buildings randomly scattered with no student transportation for convenience. Hardly enough time is given between classes to get from one class to the next.

The best thing about UAB is the location. Birmingham is right in the middle of everything--Five Points South is for partiers, and the Alys-Stephens Center is right on campus (students get huge discounts to go to concerts). There is a heavy music scene, underground and otherwise. And if you're Christian, you're right next to some of the biggest movements around--check out the Basement!
