University of Minnesota-Twin Cities Top Questions

Is the stereotype of students at University of Minnesota-Twin Cities accurate?

Robin

Yes

Brian

Some are true but some are not. I think at every school you run into people who are spoiled and some are not. You are definatly not just a number, in fact, I knew most of my professors and T.A.'s very well and had great experiences in my huge lectures.

Accuracy for stereotypes at the UMN lies on a continuum that fluctuates. However, in general it seems that there is a high level of accuracy with these stereotypes.

Jenny

I was known by name by multiple instructors. I never really felt like just a number.

Rachel

Don't know.

Allison

Yes, some people do fill these stereotypes, but there are 60,000 kids enrolled at the U. So there are obviously exceptions

Alex

Yeah, the revenue ones have sucked.

Tristan

No.

Katy

All those stereotypes are completely inaccurate. I love the size of the campus, I've found tons of things I enjoy doing, and I've met lots of people I enjoy hanging out with. I also disagree that private schools are better than the U of M. Many people I know were not accepted at the UMN and went to private schools as the next option.

The frat one is.
