University of Maine Top Questions

Anyone who doesn't love the out of doors probably doesn't belong at UMaine, the campus is large and it can take a good 15-20 minutes to get from one side to the other. In addition, Maine winters certainly aren't for everyone, as a few feet of snow on the ground can make that walk to class a lot more unpleasent if you're not prepared for it.

If you dont like the snow and cold then you should not come here. Also most of the classes have alot of students so this isnt the school for someone who wants small classes.

It's a large college, so people that require a lot of one-on-one extra help with professors probably should not go here, unless they have a very flexible schedule and lots of open time.

The University of Maine are for students who love the outdoors and a colder climate. Don't come here if you don't like winter :)

Anyone can find their place here.

There is room for everyone here. This probably isn't the best place to come if you really want to immerse yourself in other cultures because Maine isn't a very diverse state. There are cultural events on campus but a majority of the students are from Maine and have had limited cultural experiences as a result of that. People here are friendly and definitely interested in other cultures, and discrimination isn't really an issue, there just isn't much beyond what we grew up with in the area for diversity.

The type of person who should attend this school are people willing to put effort into their studies and who want to learn. It also helps if you don't mind a lot of rain and mud, just from a weather perspective.
