University of Kentucky Top Questions

I wanted to go to a college town, go away to college, I wanted the college experience. UK was the only away college I applied to and when I took a tour of the place it was such a beautiful clean campus tucked away amidst the city of Lexington. I was excited about all the new-ness of going to this school, starting over and making new friends. All that seemed possible, along with getting a degree in four years in an environment that wanted me to suceed.

UK is a fairly large campus. I didn't think that I would enjoy it, but I do. Not only do I get my daily exercise from walking to class, but I get to enjoy the beautiful scenery that UK's campus has to offer. Also, UK has one of the largest libraries in Kentucky. This is where everyone goes to work on last minute projects, papers, or just to hang out in a study group. UK is great.

The most unique thing about the University of Kentucky is the basketball hype. Fans wait all year for the first open practice called "Midnight Madness"; people even camp out for days just to get tickets to this event. Every game, Rupp Arena is filled, and people all over campus gather in restaurants, bars, and houses just to watch the games (even if we are horrible that year)!
