University of Missouri-Kansas City Top Questions

I'm a nerd due to the nature of my major, I like that in the library there are quiet areas for studying. The school is very diverse, people from different part of the world. I like how the medical school, dental school, nursing and pharmacy school are around each other, which creates an environment where students from different health profession can come and interact.

The best think UMKc offers is it's plethora of degrees offered. Because the school offers a variety of different programs, it is highly probable that anyone can attend the university and study in an area of interest that will benefit them for the rest of his/her life.

Because my school is small, it is more convenient to get to classes to and from housing on time. It only takes around 10-15 minutes to get around campus, whereas many of my friends' schools need a shuttle to get around. It is also easier to make it to class when there is bad weather, if one is arriving by foot. There are plenty of off-campus housing to still be able to walk to class within 10-15 minutes.

The best thing about my school is the cultral diversity it brings to the city. I have learned so much about my peers and teachers by attending this school. Learning among cultrally diverse students gives me a different perspective upon life and with my own way of thinking. My school is also research directed. This entails each professor to be well educated and prepared to teach students the knowledge required for each class.

The friends I have made. I joined a soririty to get to know people because I didn't know anyone when I came, and they became my family.

Close to home which allows me to work and go to school.

I love that it is a commuter school but it still has a big university feel, and it is very ethnically diverse.
