A student that should attend this university should enjoy a city life on a small scale and like being active with the community on campus. Football and basketball are popular events that eveyone goes to. Those who wish to slide by in college are able to do so in liberal arts areas, whereas the sciences and math is much harder in terms of effort.

Someone who likes outdoor activties. I was partially raised in las vegas for my teen years and but was born and raised in East Africa (Ethiopia), so I was able to adapt to any situation and have fun. Reno is not for the city minded people. It's very serne and definetly promotes a study atmoshpere. There isn't much distraction from the community excepet for the millions of events that are put on for every type of person by the student government and event planning committes around campus!

UNR is a school for everyone! While attending the university I met students from around the world, locals and even members from my high school graduating class. If you know what you want to do, great UNR has the degree offered; If your undeclared thats okay too, you will find it.

Even though I mentioned that it would be a difficult transition for minority students to attend, I would recommend this school to them because the Univeristy needs them as well. If more students of different backgrounds with a diverse scope of knowledge attend, they will increse the diversity that this University lacks. Throughout the years more and more resources are available to minority students who are struggling to adjust to a University environment.

The type of person that should attend this school should be someone who is serious about their studies and who is determined to graduate. The UNR populous is very diverse, and making friends is hard to come by. If you are friendly, outgoing, and like the challenge of making friends, come aboard! The dorm life is just for you if you are looking to make friends while going to college, which, believe me, is necessary for college. It is very important to have friends while at school to help keep you sane, especially if you are away from home.

Any student that is hardworking and committed to a four-year education. The largest lectures are not that big compared to the larger schools; they are have 200 students at most. As you advance to the upper-division courses, the classes get smaller to around 30-40 students. There are many buildings around campus that allows a student to study if home is not an option.

A open minded person that enjoys all avenues in life. From out-doors to going downtown our campus is located within mintues of many different experiencs so a person that is open minded and willing to try somthing new and exciting everyday should stop by and come check out our campus.

This is a good school for someone interested in the sciences and social/human studies. Outstanding professors in anthropology, geography, women's studies and history. Athletes have access to a wide variety of programs (skiing, golf, baseball, football, basketball) and the community is very supportive of these sports as well. A student who enjoys the outdoors would do well here also - the local resources are outstanding.
