Any type of human is welcome at Montevallo, but the people who truly thrive here are open-minded, happy, accepting, energetic, and artistic people. This school has many people who vary in terms of sexuality, religion, and race, so anyone interested in Montevallo needs to be open to these differences. Artistic people are also very successful here because of the amazing arts program and beautiful campus. It is also quite necessary to be energetic because students do A LOT of walking here, and with restaurants like Moe's on campus, it is tempting to lose track of calories!

Anyone who wants to attend this school should.

Since beginning at Montevallo, I have not come across two people with blantantly similar backgrounds. From local teenage moms getting their education to students travelling across the world to play sports, if you feel like a small, intimate school is where you should be, Montevallo may just be for you.

If you enjoy peace and quiet all the time then the University of Montevallo is the place for you. A calm and friendly natured person would enjoy attending this university.

The one who chooses to succeed.

UM is a very diverse university. I would say that a student wanting to attend should be very open to meeting new people and being open to other peoples' views on life. Someone who is an all around person and not afraid to think outside of the box and act spontaneously would do very well in the environment UM provides. I love the uniqueness of being the only public liberal arts school in Alabama and each applicant should be willing to accept that UM is cut from a different cloth.

Montevallo is a liberal art college, so anyone who is majoring in a liberal art degree. Montevallo has a 17:1 student-to-faculty ratio, so if a person gets the most out of a teacher who is direct and always accessible, Montevallo is the school to look at.
Taylor
An open person, somebody who wants to do hard work but likes to have fun too. Lots of art-centered activities and the people are hospitable. Should like a small town.

At the University of Montevallo, students get a well rounded experience from the people that attend to the education provided. The school is a liberal arts school with lots of variety among the students and teachers. Being at an arts school means there is no shortage on entertainment from theatre shows to sporting games. There is a wealth of activities to do on the campus. Montevallo is so much more than a university its a home. The average person could go here to the future scienctist to the jock to the artsy. Everyone is welcomed and everyone will love it.
