University of Alaska Anchorage Top Questions

You are more than a student id number here. Professors are accessible and want to help. Very good experience for someone who has attended 5 other universities.

My school is very friendly and everyone is easy to get a long with. The workload is fairly easy which makes it nice, however it at times can be to much like high school. Also, it is very cheap to attend which makes it a great fallback plan.

The best thing about my school is how laid back it is, without being a "slacker school". The classes are challenging material wise, but there is little emphasis on "busy work"- silly assignments or projects that don't teach anything to the student. All the assignments are meant to provide a better understanding of the subject, and that is very important to me.

I have had excellent professors that really care about student success.

That we have a nursing program in-state.

I love how diverse UAA is. There is people of all ages, cultures, and places taking classes here.

The study enviroment We have many computer lab and study places

I like the freedom to choose which classes to take, when I want to take them. Understandably there are core classes required for graduation, however; I can take these classes when I wish. I also enjoy the classes that are offered, though I am saddened to see I can't take a message therapy class.

The best thing about my school for me personally, is that it's close to home. I don't have to pay expensive housing or out-of-state fees. It allows me to have a school life while also having a normal life (I can start of my life while still going to school for my degree). It's also in the most beautiful state.

I think the best thing is that there is a school in Alaska that offers classes that teach about the multi dimensional problems that Alaska has. It has been a state for 50 plus years and still has many problems. This college realizes that and offers classes to help people overcome these circumstances in the real world.
